Craig Ranch Station is a cancelled hotel-casino that was planned by Station Casinos for North Las Vegas, Nevada. NevStar Gaming Corporation initially proposed the NevStar 2000 hotel-casino and entertainment complex in 1998, but the project received opposition from nearby residents who did not want a casino in the area. NevStar Gaming filed bankruptcy in December 1999, and Station Casinos proposed the Mediterranean-themed Craig Ranch Station in March 2000.
Because of continued residential opposition, the project's proposed location was changed to a vacant property at the nearby Craig Ranch Golf Course. Residents also opposed the new location, ultimately leading to the site's rejection by the Nevada Gaming Policy Committee in March 2001. After a weak financial quarter, Station Casinos chose to sell the original site, where it still had the option to develop the project.
