Security said anywhere behind casino - some parked is lot next to parking garage, also acceptable is the lot next to the maintenance shed, much quieter here and not so much light from casino lights. No stay limit that I'm aware of.

Pulled in here for overnight dry camping stay. No RV park here, just dry camping. Various areas to park on the back side. Freeway noise, but acceptable. Casino area nice, although we are not gamblers. We told security we were overnight campers, but it didn't seem to be an issue when we told them where we set up. Buffet was quite good, with lots of variety and tasty food. Would stop here again.

Enjoyed a nice stay at this casino. Even got in a round of Excellent golf ! ! Lots and Lots of slots with a little Black Jack. People were very friendly and security patrolled often through the lot and gave no trouble. Good location to see and do things in Duluth or a kick off point for going up the north shore. Good access to grocery and fuel. I stayed 3 nights.

Black Bear Casino Opens Hotel

February 12, 2008

CARLTON, MN - The Fon Du Lac Band of Lake Superior Chippewa has added a ten-story hotel tower at their Black Bear Casino. The new hotel features 250 guest rooms and two stories of lobby and office space. The casino will open a new gaming floor in May.

Hotel manager, Cory Van Guilder, said 'We draw people from anywhere from Thunder Bay to Minneapolis within a 60 to 90 mile radius.' He feels the quality of the hotel compares to the best in Minnesota. 'We're 20 minutes from Duluth so we have Lake Superior and Jay Cooke State Park and snowmobile trails and cross country trails. Of course we have our golf course that is the best in the area.'

Van Guilder continued, 'We are the largest employer in Carlton County and most of our employees live in this county also so it does help the economy.'

The casino started as a bingo hall by the Fon Du Lac Band. As its business grew the casino has provided financial help for its band and its members.

Black Bear Casino expansion is ahead of schedule

January 25, 2008

DULUTH, MN - The Fond du Lac Band of Lake Superior Chippewa is expanding its Black Bear Casino-Hotel-Golf complex in Carlton, MN. The project includes a new, larger casino and a new hotel.

The grand opening for the new casino is scheduled for this summer during the July 4th weekend, however, Rocky Wilkinson, the marketing manager, said the project is about four weeks ahead of plans. The casino may open as early as mid-May. The new hotel will open sooner. It opening is is planned for February 11th.

SUMMARY

  • $119.6 million expansion project
  • Casino - doubled gaming floor, 2,000 new slot machines
  • Bingo hall - 400 seats
  • Hotel - 12-story building, 240-rooms
  • Steakhouse restuarant
  • 4-level parking structure
  • Convention Center

When the project was proposed in 2004, the projected cost was $30 million. When plans were finalized and a loan was arranged in 2006, the cost had grown to $120 million. Now they find they under budgeted for fixtures, furniture and equipment. To keep the project on schedule, Tribal Chairwoman Karen Diver said the $13 million of new slot machines will be purchased on a lease program to spread their cost over one year. Cost-cutting in other areas will save an additional $5 million. Diver believes they will be able to cover the remaining start-up costs.

CASINO HISTORY
Black Bear Casino opened in June 1993 at a cost of $8 million.
The hotel opened in 1995.
The 18-hole Black Bear Golf Course opened in July 2003.
