Casino MonteLago Celebrates a Year Since Reopening

A year ago, Casino MonteLago reopened at Lake Las Vegas after shutting down because of the recession.

A lot has changed in that year. More shops at the Village at Lake Las Vegas are opening and real estate values are up 14 percent. The resorts on the lake, including The Westin Lake Las Vegas Resort, Hotel Ravella and Casino MonteLago, are working together to keep people visiting.

“The cooperation between the village, the casino and the hotels is at an all time high. Where as before when everything was high times everyone could sequester themselves into their own little world. Now, we all recognize we all have to pull together,” CEO of Casino MonteLago Jon Berkley said. 

Weekends brings in more traffic. Free concerts on Fridays and Saturdays means more people walking through the casino and playing. Plus, more foot traffic in the village with people shopping.

HENDERSON, Nev. - A spectacular show in the sky marked the return of Casino MonteLago. The dazzling fireworks over Lake Las Vegas signaled a rebirth.

"Tonight is a big night for all of Lake Las Vegas," said Lake Las Vegas store owner Don Saunders. "Having Casino MonteLago here is going to be an amazing entry into what's about to come for Lake Las Vegas."

Casino MonteLago went dark after the recession. Now, it's back and newly-renovated. The property is designed to be elegant, but not arrogant.

Tony Henry handed out samples from the Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory on the casino floor. Her Lake Las Vegas business suffered when the casino closed 14 months ago.
