Located in the breathtaking Upper Peninsula of Michigan, Island Resort & Casino is the ideal place to get away and unwind with the perfect combination of gaming, entertainment, dining, golfing, relaxation, and more. Just a 15-minute drive west of Escanaba, this expansive Vegas-style casino offers over 1,150 slots, a poker room, various table games, a bingo hall, and the hottest sports betting action with the Island Sportsbook.
Away from the tables, the resort features two championship golf courses: Sweetgrass and Sage Run. Sweetgrass, consistently ranked among Golfweek’s Best Courses, features an open parkland layout with some of the game’s most fun greens to putt. Sage Run provides a different kind of golf experience where holes flow through the hardwoods and around a natural drumlin, providing a thrill ride for golfers of all abilities.
