As shiny as a new poker chip after a $550 million post-Katrina re-do, the 1,740-room Beau Rivage Resort and Casino
offers guests the chance to play one of the most photogenic and challenging tracks on the Mississippi Gulf Coast, Tom Fazio’s Fallen Oak Golf Club, a 7,487-yard golfapalooza that romps through swamps and piney woods like Bigfoot.
Centuries-old live oaks, a rushing stream and the seductive scent of magnolias add to the Southern charm. Besides braving the gaming tables, trying their luck at deep-sea fishing and sampling Mediterranean fare by celeb chef Todd English at Olives, visitors enjoy concerts by such headliners as Minelli, Humperdinck and Iglesias.
