Mississippi's regulator green-lights site for a new casino in Hancock County
Plans are moving forward for a new casino in Hancock County. The Mississippi Gaming Commission on Thursday gave site approval to Cure Land Company's proposed gaming site in Lakeshore, a community near Bay St. Louis.
The site is located on South Beach Boulevard, near the Silver Slipper Casino. The company posted its legal notice on March 6th, 2019 in the Sea Coast Echo, as reported by WLOX-TV. In the notice, Cure Land said it would develop a casino with 40,000 square feet of gaming space, 1100 slot machines, and 22 table games. There are also plans for a 300-room hotel on 98.5 acres on South Beach Boulevard.
Cure Land Company is a well-known local developer in Hancock County. The company is currently building the boutique “The Pearl Hotel” at the corner of Main Street and Beach Boulevard in downtown Bay St. Louis. The upscale 4-story, multi-million dollar hotel will feature 59 luxury rooms. The brand is also the landlord of the Silver Slipper Casino, where the rent is based on a share of the casino revenue.
