The short version
What visitors say about Red Earth Casino
Red Earth is a small casino attached to a gas station and travel store in Thermal, and many of its reviewers are drivers on their way to Yuma. They like the cheap fuel, the well stocked store and the clean restrooms, though one traveler found the store dirty and neglected.
Bring a driver's license in good shape. Two people say staff wouldn't accept a damaged license, and with it went a players card in one case and a drawing prize in the other. That fits a wider pattern of complaints that the players club won't honor promotions people expected. The casino floor itself gets kinder words, with a good mix of newer and older slots and a bar. The Mexican restaurant is the weak link, and several diners call the food greasy or stale.

Looking for the best deals? I found the cheapest gas right here in Imperial County! ⛽️ It's such a great feeling to save a little extra on your fill-ups. Plus, the food options nearby are amazing! 🍔🌮 You can find delicious meals that really
Clean, friendly staff. Great price for fuel (Diesel and Gasoline). Mexican Restaurant on site. Clean restrooms. Great selections for beverages and snacks. Gambling is permitted. Cars to the front of Casino, 18 wheel trucks at the rear of Casino. Exit is somewhat challenging.
I stop here to get gas when I'm heading from the valley, gas is usually cheaper here then in the valley. People are respectful and you can find your favorite snacks for your travel.
Nice little casino with a gas station by it and a Mexican restaurant, they got a good mix of new and old slots, a bar with happy hour and a smoking zone that s behind closed glass doors so you don't smell it on the main floor. Also free soda and coffee DIY with variety
Great place to chill, play slots and have a beer! Ryan in the cashiers cage was helpful and "extremely" friendly! He's really H O T!🔥😎😜

Stopped there on my way to Yuma to get a free food item since they sent me a notice in the mail that it was free "every Monday and Tuesday in July!". But apparently, the lady at the player's club didnt feel like doing her job and told me i didn't have anything. I wish i could've shown her the mail voucher.
The Travel center at the Casino was filthy , uncooked hotdogs left on the dirty counter like an employee forgot they were loading them onto the rollers to cook and walked away never to return . The entire place honestly looked like you should think twice about taking the risk. Wash water to clean windshields…
Excellent casino and staff. The store and fuel desk are always clean and well kept bathrooms. But... The Mexican restaurant is god awful. Nothing fresh and salty like the Salton Sea. Two times I have spent really good money on food here my dogs wouldn't eat.
Save your money. Place is a rip off. They rig machines. Played dragon link on 5 different machines and spent about $800 with only 1 bonus that payed out $30. Ridiculous, it's not that hard to get a bonus feature on dragon link. Atm
Clean and well maintained with polite and courteous staff.
Howeve they sell bio diesel and do not sell real diesel. I filled my RV and my mileage dropped from 10 to 7. And the next morning in cold northern Utah my fuel filter was gelled.
I have a huge problem with how Red Earth did their Fathers Day envelopes for you to win up to $8000. My husband went in the casino on Fathers day. He went to the kiosk, swiped his card and he had $50 freeplay and $20 fathers day gift.. which equals $70. Then he went up to the rewards desk and was told he could pull a…
