About South Point Hotel Casino & Spa
South Point Hotel Casino & Spa is a casino at 9777 South Las Vegas Boulevard in Enterprise, Nevada, owned and operated by Michael Gaughan. The property opened in 2005 as the South Coast and was rebranded South Point in 2006. All gaming is regulated by the Nevada Gaming Control Board, with a minimum gambling age of 21. The floor operates 24 hours a day.
Michael Gaughan is one of Nevada’s most experienced independent casino operators — he founded the Gold Coast Hotel and Casino on Flamingo Road in the 1980s and has been a significant figure in the Las Vegas locals market for decades. South Point is his flagship property, developed as a large-scale independent casino-resort in the southern Las Vegas Valley, serving the Enterprise and Henderson residential communities as well as visitors on Las Vegas Boulevard south of the Strip. The 9777 S Las Vegas Blvd address is approximately 4 miles south of the Mandalay Bay / Tropicana Four Corners Strip intersection.
The property is independent — not part of a corporate chain — which allows Michael Gaughan to set his own game rules, pricing, and promotional structure. For visitors evaluating Enterprise and south Las Vegas casino options, South Point’s combination of 2,390 machines, 60 table games, a 22-table poker room, Bingo, and a Race & Sports Book makes it one of the most complete independent casino operations in the greater Las Vegas Valley.

Gaming Floor
South Point runs approximately 2,390 gaming machines — one of the larger machine floors in the greater Las Vegas Valley — alongside a 60-table game section with 15 distinct game types. The machine floor includes standard reel slots, Video Poker, Electronic Blackjack (automated blackjack table layouts), and Electronic Keno alongside continuous-draw Keno terminals.
Table games include Blackjack, Craps, Roulette, Fortune Pai Gow Poker, Mississippi Stud, Commission Free Baccarat, Baccarat, Three Card Poker Progressive, Ultimate Texas Hold’em, and a Race & Sports Book. Commission Free Baccarat is a variant that eliminates the standard 5% commission on banker wins, replacing it with a push (tie) on banker six — simplifying the game for players who prefer not to track commissions. Mississippi Stud is the community-card stud variant without a dealer hand. Three Card Poker Progressive adds a jackpot layer to standard Three Card Poker.
