Sports Betting At the French Lick Resort Casino The venue also has a sportsbook through a partnership with Rush Street Interactive. Orange County Holdings owns the French Lick Resort Casino property. The move came as Indiana changed its casino law and allowed land-based gaming halls to open. The French Lick Casino became the first land-based casino in the Hoosier State in 2008, as the moat was filled and the boat was converted to a land property. The property was designed as a riverboat and featured a small pond surrounding the space, as Indiana state law only permitted water-based casinos at the time. The casino at the French Lick Resort property opened in 2006.
