Dakota Dunes Resort & Casino is a First Nations casino situated on Whitecap Dakota First Nation land south of Saskatoon along Saskatchewan Highway 219. The 84,000 sq. ft facility opened in 2007, and includes a casino, restaurant, multi-purpose rooms, and an 18-hole golf course.
In September 2018, construction began on a new $38 million, 155-room hotel on the resort site, which opened as the Dakota Dunes Resort in October 2020.[2] [3]
The Teepee of Light consists of seven 4000-watt spot lights that at night project into the night sky to form a light effect in the shape of a teepee.
The 18 hole golf course opened to the public on April 30, 2004. The golf course was designed by Graham Cooke. It hosted the SIGA Dakota Dunes Open on PGA Tour Canada from 2008 to 2016.[4]
