Patrick Packineau, the general manager of 4 Bears Casino & Lodge, is proud of the progress and growing reputation of the newly renovated hot spot.

"We're striving to be the destination resort and entertainment capital of western North Dakota," Packineau said. "I believe we're definitely stepping up to the challenge by offering high quality entertainment and services at a good price.

Over the span of 24 years, 4 Bears Casino & Lodge has transformed from a gaming casino with 40 rooms to an expanding resort featuring a state-of-the-art events center, fine dining restaurant and a hotel expansion creating over 200 rooms.

Today, the event center plays hosts to rising country stars Chris Janson, Easton Corbin along with famous rock bands The Atlanta Rhythm Section and Foghat.

"When we first developed the new event center, our intention was to bring a higher level of entertainment to western North Dakota," Packineau said. "We want to bring family oriented shows and higher quality acts here on the regular basis. The concert experience here is truly something you have to see and we offer a safe, secure and comfortable location with high quality sound."

According to Packineau, every seat in the house provides a great view of the show.

With two big screen TVs on each side of the stage setting, the event center ensures each guest can enjoy their favorite shows.

In addition to their live shows, the New Town casino and lodge offers classic games, including black jack, roulette, three card poker and a variety of slot machines.

After indulging in gaming and live entertainment, 4 Bears Casino & Lodge welcomes guests to kick back and enjoy their fine dining and hospitality.

Featuring lakeside cabins overlooking Lake Sakakawea along with the Bison Room Steakhouse, which provides choice beverages and its signature bone-in ribeye, Packineau expressed confidence that guests will enjoy their stay at the updated destination.

"Our bone-in ribeye is a premier cut that I would recommend to anybody," Packineau said. "Its portion is huge and its flavor is big."

Complementing their signature bone-in ribeye is seafood night, which provides live lobster among an extensive menu of other seafood favorites.
