Firekeepers Casino
FireKeepers is a tribal casino and hotel located in Battle Creek, Michigan, just about halfway between Detroit and Chicago, along I-94.
The casino opened on Aug. 5, 2009, and was originally owned by the Nottawaseppi Huron Band of Potawatomi tribe and managed by Las Vegas-based casino developer Full House Resorts. Unlike some tribal casinos across the state that allow younger patrons, FireKeepers has a 21-and-up age requirement.
The Nottawaseppi Huron Band of Potawatomi bought out the management contract in May 2012 and now owns and operates FireKeepers Casino Hotel.
