History

Prior to opening as Talking Stick Resort, the land was the location of Casino Arizona 101 & Indian Bend. It opened in 1999 with 332 slot machines and 45 table games. In 2003 the property was expanded to include blackjack, poker, keno and a sports bar.

In September 2006, ground was broken at the future site of Talking Stick Resort. Phoenix-based company, Chanen Construction Company, Inc. led the construction of the project.

Casino Arizona 101 & Indian Bend remained opened throughout construction until the resort's opening. The temporary structure that housed Casino Arizona was then auctioned as were the majority of its contents.

On April 15, 2010, Talking Stick Resort opened on the former site of Casino Arizona at 101 and Indian Bend. An official grand opening took place on June 10.
