Haven Gaming…previously known as Ciela Gaming LLC of Nevada has been selected to bring a casino and resort facility to Danville. Operating locally as Haven Gaming, it will be built in phases south of Interstate 74 at Lynch Road if the Illinois Gaming Board gives its approval.
Scott Sypolt, the leader of Haven Gaming, is excited about the plans….
The project will be built in stages with phase one including a 53,500 square foot casino gaming floor that will form the core of the permanent casino and resort. Phase one will also include a 200 seat buffet and trendy Chicago style deli, according to information supplied VermilionCountyFirst.com News.
Phase two will include a 150 room luxury boutique hotel, including 15 suites…along with designer pools with a lazy river…5,300 square foot sports betting arena (with on-site and mobile wagering)…a Fitness Center…Spa and Salon…and additional parking.
Phase three will include a 15,000 square foot Convention Center with convertible 10,000 square foot ballroom…a 1,500 seat Entertainment Venue with oak ridged interior design for optimum acoustic conditions. Also included in phase three is a corridor of Celebrity Restaurants.
Haven Gaming says Phases One and Two are the backbone of the project and the amenities listed in Phases Three and Four are the icing that gives the casino-resort its unique identity. The timing of Phase Three will be measured and coincide with the overall growth and progress of the Danville Casino Resort.
If the Illinois Gaming Board approves the license being requested for Danville the first phase of the development could be operational by early 2022. And if all goes as planned the full casino resort will be completed by August of 2023.
