Green Valley Ranch Resort and Spa is a hotel, casino, and resort spa located in the Green Valley planned community in Henderson, Nevada. It is owned by Station Casinos and The Greenspun Corporation (TGC), with each entity holding a 50% stake.[1]
The property offers 8 restaurants, a 50,000 ft² (4,500 m²) casino, The Spa at Green Valley Ranch, and 490 guest rooms. While a locals casino, the property was designed with an upscale element[2] and draws many out-of-town visitors.[3] The hotel is adjacent to The District, a mixed-use development.

[edit] History
[edit] The District at Green Valley Ranch
The District at Green Valley Ranch was added as a multi-use project directly to the east of the resort in April 2004. The property includes retail stores and restaurants on the first level and luxury condominiums on the upper levels, as well as standalone restaurants and commercial office buildings. A second phase of the District was opened in August 2005, further to the east, and includes retail shops and commercial office space. The Perlman Design Group designed the project.
[edit] Appearances in film and television
American Casino, a reality television series for the Discovery Channel and Travel Channel based on the daily tasks of various casino employees, was filmed here in 2004.[4] Several episodes of the hit show CSI: Crime Scene Investigation were also filmed on site.[5]
Rahman "Rock" Harper, the winner of the 2007 third season of Hell's Kitchen, was rewarded with a one-year contract as head chef at the resort's Terra Verde restaurant.[6]
