(PRESS RELEASE) -- Pala Casino Spa and Resort has started construction of a $5.6 million, 10-acre RV resort that will be adjacent to the hotel-casino on Highway 76 in Pala. The RV resort is scheduled to be open to the public in late May 2016.
The RV resort will offer 100 full-service sites. Twenty, 30 and 50 amps of electrical service will be available for RVs and trailers from 55 to 70 feet. Seventy-seven will be 20' x 55' back-in sites; six will be 20' x 60' luxury sites equipped with barbecue grills and 17 will be 20' x 70' premium pull-through sites. All will have a grassy area with a picnic table, electrical, water and sewer hookups and free wi-fi and cable television service.
The RV resort will feature a luxury resort clubhouse with a heated swimming pool and two spas. Indoor amenities will feature a billiard table, card tables, three flat-screen televisions and a laundromat. Outdoors, RVers will have access to five barbecue grills, two table-tennis games, two horseshoe pits and a fenced doggy park. A separate building also will house two restrooms and shower facilities. Visitors will be provided a key card to access the swimming pool, laundromat and restrooms/showers.
The Pala Mini-Mart will be conveniently located across the parking lot and offers a wide selection of wine, beer, beverages, tobacco products, snacks and fresh produce. The Mini-Mart's Deli & More offers a variety of fresh meats, "made-to-order" sandwiches and fresh pizzas. The Pala gas station provides all grades of fuel, including diesel, and dedicated propane fuel.
The RV resort will provide 24-hour shuttle service to Pala's hotel and casino and a 10% discount to RV groups of 10 or more.
"This new state-of-the-art RV Resort continues our commitment to our guests to provide the best gaming and entertainment experience, and the best service, in Southern California," said Robert Smith, chairman of the Pala Band of Mission Indians. "We look forward to its grand opening."
