KINDER, Louisiana— Coushatta Casino Resort, Louisiana’s largest casino resort, recently celebrated the grand opening of Legacy Tower. The major expansion added 204 guest rooms, including 100 luxury suites, and brought the resort’s total inventory to more than 1,000 rooms.

The opening was marked with a ceremony hosted by the Coushatta Tribe of Louisiana, bringing together tribal leadership, casino executives, development partners, elected officials and community members to commemorate one of the most significant expansions in the resort’s 30-year history.

“Legacy Tower represents more than growth for Coushatta; it reflects our commitment to building something lasting for future generations while honoring the legacy of those who came before us,” said David Sickey, chairman of the Coushatta Tribe of Louisiana. “We are proud to continue welcoming others in a way that reflects our culture, values and community.”

Legacy Tower is designed to serve as a bold new front door for Coushatta Casino Resort. The hotel features a dramatic exterior, including a seven-story LED display, a redesigned arrival experience, and a new connecting lobby that centralizes guest access across the property.

Inside, the tower blends modern luxury with cultural storytelling. Design elements throughout the space draw inspiration from the Coushatta Tribe’s heritage, including patterns and textures influenced by traditional basketry.

“Legacy Tower represents an exciting new chapter for Coushatta,” said Nate Tanner, general manager of Coushatta Casino Resort. “From the scale of the tower to the unified lobby and enhanced arrival experience, this expansion brings the resort together in a more seamless and elevated way. It reflects our continued investment in our guests, our team, the tribe and the future of this region.”

The resort’s all-new conference center includes breakout rooms and facilities, all equipped with professional-grade A/V, Wi-Fi and more. The 7,200-square-foot Grand Ballroom can be split into two smaller rooms. Three flexible breakout rooms, each about 900 square feet, can be combined into one or two larger spaces, and they all connect to a large pre-function area.

The expansion is part of Coushatta’s ongoing “Bigger, Better Coushatta” initiative, a multiyear investment focused on enhancing the guest experience while creating long-term economic impact. The project supports continued job creation and increased tourism across Southwest Louisiana and East Texas, reinforcing the resort’s role as a key economic driver in the region.

The addition of Legacy Tower also strengthens Coushatta’s ability to attract regional and destination visitors, particularly from Texas, while expanding capacity for gaming, entertainment and resort experiences.
