Kah-Nee-Ta High Desert Resort and Casino is a resort in central Oregon, United States on the Warm Springs Indian Reservation, near the community of Warm Springs in Jefferson County.

History

Kah-Nee-Ta Resort first started by a non-Indian doctor who owned land around the hot springs of the Warm Springs River. In 1961, the Tribes purchased the land back and started to rebuild the spa. The great flood of 1964 damaged the spa and bridge to the spa. In 1964-1965, the Tribes built an Olympic-sized swimming pool, cottages, restaurant, and tepees.

In 1971, the Tribes began construction of the Kah-Nee-Ta Lodge using funds from low-interest loans from the Economic Development Administration (EDA). In 1995, the Tribes expanded operations to include a casino and improved convention center.

In 2001, the resort and casino were combined to form Kah-Nee-Ta High Desert Resort & Casino, which also includes a golf course.
