Isle Casino Bettendorf
Isle Casino Hotel Bettendorf is a casino hotel in Bettendorf, Iowa, owned and operated by Caesars Entertainment. It is one of several casinos located in the Quad Cities.
History
On April 21, 1995, the Lady Luck Bettendorf began operating after being granted an excursion gaming license earlier that year.[1] It was not the first, nor the only riverboat casino at the time in the Quad Cities; Diamond Lady began operating April 1, 1991 in Bettendorf, while President sailed from Davenport, Iowa and Jumer's Casino was working out of Rock Island, Illinois.[2]
In March 2000, Lady Luck Gaming was acquired by Isle of Capri Casinos and the casino was re-branded to reflect the change in ownership.
On June 24, 2016, the casino was moved from a riverboat to a land-based casino.[3] The name, originally Isle of Capri Bettendorf, has since been shortened to Isle Casino Bettendorf. The casino boat Bettendorf Capri was sold to American Queen Steamboat Company to be converted into an overnight passenger vessel to join their fleet of river cruise ships.[4]
In 2017, Eldorado Resorts (later renamed as Caesars Entertainment) acquired Isle of Capri Casinos, including Isle Bettendorf.[5]
Property information
