While gamblers await the delayed opening of Saganing Eagle's Landing Casino, near Standish, Michigan, the focus shifts to the next new casino in Michigan, the FireKeepers Casino, which will be constructed in Emmett Township, Michigan, located between Battle Creek and Marshall, near 11 Mile Road and I-94 Interstate.

Firekeepers Casino will be owned by the Nottawaseppi Huron Band of Potowatomi Indians, and will be managed by Full House Resorts, Inc.
The casino is reported to be a $270 million development, with a 230,000 square foot casino, featuring between 2000 and 2500 slot machines, and between 44 and 110 table games, and a 2,000 space covered parking garage. The casino is reportedly going to create 700 construction jobs and 2500 full time jobs. The casino is being built under the direction of construction manager Clark Construction Company.
