Resorts World Catskills sets opening date
According to the link above, Empire Resorts Casino will open February 8, 2018. Here is the address:
888 Resorts World Drive, Monticello, NY 12701
OPENING DATE HAS BEEN MOVED UP TO MID-FEBRUARY 2018.
The Empire Resorts Casino is scheduled to open on March 1, 2018. Being hailed as a full scale, full service, multi-use venue modeled after Las Vegas and Atlantic City venues, visitors will be greeted by a 100,000 foot gaming floor filled with slot machines, gaming tables, poker rooms, and 600 dealers ready to run the cards. 134 table games, including poker, blackjack, craps, roulette, baccarat and Pai Gow will be available.
Hotel and bars, continual entertainment, upscale retail stores, and restaurants are among featured attractions with a themed family water park and golf course coming sometime after opening in 2018.
Players and guests will exit directly off Route 17/I 86 to enter the complex. The main casino building and hotel floats in the sky as travelers head West and come down the hill from the Rock Hill exit off the main highway. It’s the first significant high rise that’s been built since the grand Borscht Belt days of the Sullivan County, NY Catskills era.
As a Licensed NY Real Estate Broker and friend, I welcome you to our beautiful county and urge you to explore the breadth and depth Sullivan County offers. Bethel Woods, Delaware River Corridor, small town country back roads, artisans, musicians, rivers, lakes, hamlets, craft breweries, ski slopes, racing venue, dining establishments all beckon and await you. And of course, the Empire Resorts Luxury Casino Hotel complex await your arrival.
Welcome to Sullivan County. I am happy to be your Sullivan County, New York Concierge.
