About Prairie Wind Casino Hotel
Overview
Prairie Wind Casino Hotel is operated by the Oglala Sioux Tribe on the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation in Kyle, Shannon County (now Oglala Lakota County) — one of the largest reservations by area in the United States and consistently one of the most economically impoverished counties in the country. The Pine Ridge Reservation is historically significant as the site of the Wounded Knee Massacre (1890) and the Wounded Knee Occupation (1973 AIM protest), and the Oglala Lakota people maintain one of the most distinct Native American cultural traditions in North America. Casino revenue supports tribal healthcare, education, and cultural programs in a community that has faced extraordinary systemic economic challenges.
Gaming & Hotel
400+ slot machines and 15+ table games. A hotel provides on-site accommodations in the remote Pine Ridge setting.
