We had the absolute best weekend at Choctaw Casinos & Resort in Durant, Oklahoma celebrating the official opening of their Aqua pool for the season! With a swim-up bar, cabanas, and of course, multiple restaurants, and massive casino, the resort feels like a mini Vegas retreat! It is the perfect weekend getaway for a girls trip, bach, or birthday weekend and we're highlighting all the deets!

CHOCTAW CULTURAL CENTER

Right down the road from the casino is the beautiful Choctaw Cultural Center! We stopped by before heading out of town and were super impressed by the architecture, exhibit, food, and interactive workshops! The exhibit dives into the history of Choctaw nation and the workshops let you experience it for yourself from pottery, beading, and basket weaving!

So make your plans to visit the most epic casino and resort just 1.5 hours north of Dallas! And GOOD LUCK!
