The casino is one of seven managed and finanaced by Mohawk Gaming and Entertainment, headquartered in Connecticut.
The Ilani Casino Resort opened on April 24, 2017 after many years of legal battles with opposition groups. The casino is located off Interstate 5 Exit 16, near La Center about 20 miles north of Vancouver, Washington.
&In February 2016 the Cowlitz Tribe broke ground for their new $510 million casino. Construction was completed in early 2017 and the grand opening was celebrated April 24, 2017.
The Cowlitz Tribe was a landless tribe awaiting approval from the Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA) to take 152 acres of land into federal trust. The land is located at La Center's I-5 interchange in Clark County, Washington.
Federal approval was finally granted December 23, 2010 making the land a sovereign reservation for the Cowlitz tribal government, housing, and economic opportunities. This included the tribe's plan to construct a resort casino as described below. Federal support for this project was reconfirmed Oct. 5, 2012.
The first phase of this construction on this $510 million project was the two-story casino which is now finished. An eight-story hotel will be built in a later phase.

Groundbreaking was held for the new gas station and convenience store that will be located near the ilani Casino Resort. On Thursday the ceremony was held. The casino resort is operated by the Cowlitz Indian Tribe near La Center, Washington.
During the ceremony members of the Cowlitz Indian Tribe and casino resort leadership were present.
There will be between 18 and 24 gas pumps. 22 parking spaces. The convenience store will be two floors with an atrium.
The store will offer drinks, tobacco, and some grocery items. Customers will also be able to purchase hot food. The store is planning on offering sandwiches and friend chicken.
The new gas station and convenience store is scheduled to be completed by the end of Spring next year.
February 14, 2018
In April the ilani Casino Resort is scheduled to open the new meeting and entertainment center. This is also the time the casino will be celebrating the one year anniversary.
The announcement about the opening was made on February 5.
The newly expanded area consists of 30,000 square feet. The Cowlitz Ballroom is 22,000 square feet. It can be made into different size rooms to accommodate different sized events. For concerts the ballroom can seat 2,500 people. It can also be used for banquets. In that configuration, the room can accommodate 800 guests. Smaller events can also be held there. The room can be divided.
The location in the building allows for guests to enter the room directly without needing to walk into the casino area.
Events held there will have access to full catering services, sound, and lighting.
Attracting more entertainment was one of the reasons behind the expansion project. The tribe is interested in providing guests with performers that are nationally known.
Along with the new entertainment center opening, the amount of traffic it will bring is a concern. To offset the issues, the road will be improved. An additional 400 parking spaces will also be added.
They expect traffic to be heaviest during the grand opening of the center. Then Thursday to Monday.
The ilani Casino Resort has been in operation for close to a year. The casino has plans to continue growing and expanding in the future.
