About L'Auberge Casino Resort Lake Charles
Overview
L'Auberge Casino Resort Lake Charles is operated by Penn Entertainment and is the most celebrated casino resort in the Gulf South region outside of Las Vegas. Located on the Calcasieu River in Lake Charles, Louisiana — just 30 minutes from the Texas border on I-10 — L'Auberge draws enormous traffic from the Houston metropolitan area (approximately 2 million people within a 2.5-hour drive) where full casino gaming is not available.
The French-Creole themed resort opened in 2005 with a design philosophy that emphasizes luxury, space, and resort amenities rather than maximizing gaming floor square footage. The result is one of the most aesthetically distinguished casino properties in the region, winning multiple national design and hospitality awards since its opening. The property's beach pool, championship golf course, and high-quality dining program distinguish it from pure gaming destinations.
Gaming
The gaming floor features 1,600+ slot machines and 60+ live table games including blackjack, craps, roulette, baccarat, and specialty games. A dedicated poker room runs cash games and tournament events. A high-limit room serves premium gaming guests. The mychoice loyalty program provides Penn Entertainment nationwide benefits.
Hotel, Spa & Golf
The luxury hotel delivers premium river-view accommodations. The spa offers comprehensive treatments in an award-winning facility. The Pete Dye-designed Tournament Players Club (TPC) golf course is widely regarded as one of the finest public resort courses in the Gulf South. The beach pool complex — with a lazy river, waterfall, and sand beach — is the resort's most distinctive amenity.
Getting There
