Highway 59
The lake and the land
Highway 59 runs past South Beach Casino & Resort north of Winnipeg, a short way from the shore of Lake Winnipeg. On the map, as the crow flies, Patricia Beach Provincial Park is 7.4 km off. Grand Beach Provincial Park comes to 23.1 km by the same measure, and the roads run longer than either line.
Seven First Nations share ownership of the resort, which stands on Brokenhead Ojibway Nation reserve land: Poplar River, Pauingassi, Little Grand Rapids, Hollow Water, Brokenhead, Bloodvein and Black River. Opened on May 28, 2005, it describes itself as a Manitoba Star Attraction.
Any hour
The Ocean Club card
Joining the Ocean Club, the players club at South Beach Casino & Resort, costs nothing. Cards are issued right at the Ocean Club desk once valid ID is shown. Points come from slot play; 400 of them convert to $1 in Beach Bucks, and after 12 months with no activity they expire. Membership is a condition of every stay package, and packages are booked by phone at 1-877-775-8259.
Online
Online gambling in Manitoba
South Beach Casino & Resort is a land-based resort, and none of its pages names an online casino. In Manitoba, the Liquor, Gaming and Cannabis Authority (LGCA) regulates gaming. By the regulator's own statement, PlayNow.com, run by Manitoba Liquor & Lotteries, holds the province's single gambling site licence. Its caution to Manitobans is that most gambling sites aimed at them sit outside Manitoba regulation. An ad for a site does not make that site legal.
On this guide's home page, every link marked Ad leads to the same single partner, a private online casino. It holds no Manitoba licence, has no connection with the resort, and pays the guide a commission.
