ACME, MI, September 10, 2009
/24-7PressRelease/ -- According to the 2009 Ypartnership/Yankelovich Inc National Leisure Travel MONITOR(SM), nearly nine in ten leisure travelers (88 percent) feel perceived value for price is an extremely influential factor when selecting a hotel. At Turtle Creek Casino & Hotel, located in the picturesque Northwoods of Michigan, travelers can get the style of a lavish Vegas getaway plus plenty of bang for their buck.
The Hotel, which opened in June 2008, is a six-story, contemporary-design gaming hotel that has become a quick hit with travelers to the Midwest. Serving as a comprehensive destination, guests can take advantage of a 54,000-square foot interactive gaming floor, 1,300 slots, 40 table games, poker room, Player's Club, VIP parking, six bars, thrilling entertainment at Level 3 Lounge which features live music on the outdoor patio, 137 elegant guestrooms and suites, gift shop, fitness center and three mouth-watering restaurants.
Upon opening, it was recognized as the "Best Architectural Design for a Casino Resort Under $200M" by the American Gaming Association, the only award of this kind for the gaming industry. To this day Turtle Creek guests marvel at the edifice as the building appears to emerge from the earth. An eco-friendly structure, the Hotel features a 2,400-square foot Green Roof - a rarity in a casino. While natural lighting reduces energy consumption for illuminating the casino floor by nearly 50 percent, a natural reflection on the Hotel's setting and tribal ownership's preservation of environmental values...can't find that on the Strip.
