An illegal club originally owned by Earl Sausser and Walter Melrose, and then just Melrose when Sausser died in 1942. Located at what is today the corner of Grove St. and Highway 111. Sometimes referred to as being in Palm Springs, the club was actually in Cathedral City. The structure was torn down in 1985 (see "Archive").

About Illegal Casinos - by their nature, information about illegal, or unlicensed, casinos is hard to find and difficult to verify. Information presented on the ChipGuide about these casinos is provided as the result of our best efforts but may not be 100% accurate. Even if the information is accurate, gamblers move around and may take their equipment with them; items used in one casino may have also been used in others. Please send verified information about illegal casinos to the ChipGuide so that we may improve our accuracy.
