Wildhorse Resort & Casino near Pendleton has opened its new bowling center, food court and arcade, capping an $85 million, yearlong expansion designed to provide more activities for families.

There will be no grand opening ceremony because of pandemic restrictions.

The expansion adds Quaking Aspen Lanes, a 24-lane bowling center and other amenities. The name is a nod to the history of the Confederated Tribes of the Umatilla Indian Reservation, which owns and operates Wildhorse. “Nixyaawii” is a Cayuse name for the area where the winter encampment was located and translates into groves of quaking aspens that grew around the springs.

The bowling center has room for open and league play, as well as eight boutique lanes that can be reserved for private parties and events.

There is a full bar and several new dining options in addition to the main restaurant. Moe Pho and Brigham Fish ‘n Chips, both based in Pendleton and both owned by members of the tribe, are opening their second locations.

Wildhorse offers a 24-hour casino, hotel, RV park, restaurants, five-screen Cineplex, 18-hole golf course, travel plaza, a family entertainment center and a tribal museum.

It is off Interstate 84 at exit 216, four miles east of Pendleton in Oregon.
