The Rose Gaming Resort is a roughly $400 million undertaking being built in Northern Virginia in the small town of Dumfries.
A ceremonial groundbreaking of The Rose Gaming Resort in Northern Virginia is held on January 11, 2022. The Rose in the future could be located within 10 miles of an NFL football stadium that plays home to the Washington Commanders.

The Colonial Downs Group project is one of the largest investments to ever come to Dumfries. But an even larger undertaking is possibly in the works nearby. ESPN reported this week that the NFL Washington Commanders football team has paid more than $100 million for approximately 200 acres of land in Prince William County, which is also home to Dumfries.
The NFL team’s land purchase is said to be in Woodbridge, less than 10 miles from where The Rose is being built along I-95. Though team reps have not publicly discussed the acreage acquisition, rumors are swirling that Woodbridge is where Commanders owner Dan Snyder wants to build the franchise’s future home.
The ESPN report did not single out the precise location of the property, but said it’s “right off an exit on I-95 in Woodbridge.”
