FireKeepers Casino Hotel is a tribal casino in Battle Creek, in southwest Michigan. It is owned by the Nottawaseppi Huron Band of the Potawatomi, opened in 2009, and added its hotel in 2012. It is the main casino between Kalamazoo and Jackson.
Who it suits
FireKeepers suits players in the Battle Creek, Kalamazoo, Lansing and Jackson area who want a large floor and a hotel, with dining and a sportsbook under one roof. The mix of restaurants makes it workable for groups with different tastes.
It is less suited to a very small or quiet venue. The casino's site says guests must be 21 or older to enter.
The gaming floor
The gaming floor is roughly 107,000 square feet. Treat it as roughly 2,900 slot machines and about 76 table games as of October 2026, though not every table runs at every hour. Table games include blackjack, roulette, craps and baccarat, and the casino lists poker as a game category.
Dacey's Sportsbook & Taphouse is the on-site retail sportsbook and bar. A smoke-free gaming area was added in the 2012 expansion; ask about smoking areas if that matters to you.
Dining and the hotel
The casino lists Nibi, Cafe, Dacey's Sportsbook & Taphouse, Smoke 'N Fire, Fortune 8 Noodle Bar, Chi Mon-ee's, Gapi Coffee & Sweets and The Cake Shop. Hours differ by venue.
The eight-story hotel has about 243 rooms and suites. Book early for weekends and event nights.
