History
The Miss Marquette riverboat in Marquette, Iowa was bought from Sodak Gaming in November 1999 for $41.67 million. Shortly after, on October 6, 2000, Isle of Capri agreed to acquire the Miss Marquette riverboat for $47.7 million. The riverboat, Miss Marquette, was acquired from the Isle of Capri Casinos in 2000, and re-branded as the Isle of Capri Marquette. In December 2008 the Miss Marquette riverboat was approaching a Lady Luck re-brand. A few months later, March 2009, the exterior re-branding of the Miss Marquette riverboat was completed. Later in the year, August 2009, the completion of the Lady Luck re-brand was near.

On October 13, 2016 Isle of Capri Casinos, Inc announced the sale of its Lady Luck branded casino property in Marquette, Iowa to Casino Queen, or CQ Holdings Company Inc for an estimated amount of $40 million. After a few months, on March 13, 2017, the Isle of Capri Casinos, Inc completed the announced sell of Lady Luck Casino Marquette property to Casino Queen for an estimated amount of $50 million in redemption of its outstanding debt.

On January 26, 2023 Queen Casino & Entertainment received approval from the Iowa Racing and Gaming Commission to move the casino from the Miss Marquette riverboat to land. Construction will begin during the second half of 2023 to add an additional 12,000 square feet to the existing dockside facility that has the Market Street Buffet on the first floor and the entertainment venue on the second floor. The addition to that dockside facility will include the new 17,000 square foot casino, a new entrance, new dining areas and a sports bar. 400 additional slot machines will be in the new land-based casino, along with two new blackjack tables and other games of chance. Construction on this new addition will be completed in late 2024.
