A forgotten Gem, the Beaver Dam Lodge Arizona

Tucked away in the north west corner of Arizona on the Arizona strip between Utah and Nevada … the Beaver Dam lodge was built around 1938 and is still there today with a beautiful golf course restaurant bar even an RV park ….. I was there about 20 years ago with my motorhome …. I played a round of golf… had a few cocktails in the bar and got to talk to the old manager who told me stories about the famous celebrities who would stay there while traveling between Hollywood and Salt Lake City on old Highway 91 …. he said on holidays and weekends there will be small games of poker and 21 on the QT the Arizona police were very far away and nobody bothered the patrons who wanted to do a little gambling …. they also brought out about six slot machines from storage and put them out on the weekends as well I don’t know when this ended and I have never seen anything from there … chips or tokens etc. anyway if you’re on your way to Mesquite Nevada…. Beaver Dam is 9 miles north on interstate 15 check it out it’s really a nice old property here are some photographs for your enjoyment thanks for reading my post …..happy travels …. Rich
