When traveling from Las Vegas to southern California, one must navigate through an endless stretch of sand in the Mojave National Preserve, all before eventually finding the greenery which surrounds San Bernardino. A surprisingly swift drive could take those residing in the desert to numerous hotspots in California, but none may be as underrated as the Tribal property nestled up against the San Bernardino mountains. Following the trip’s finale, which includes a path through the San Bernardino National Forest, Yaamava’ Resort & Casino at San Manuel awaits all visitors searching for entertainment, dining, hospitality and gaming. 

Once inside, guests are immediately drawn to multiple art displays dedicated to the history Yaamava’ Resort & Casino at San Manuel, as well as the Yuhaaviatam of San Manuel Nation Tribe. An exhibit with hanging floral arrangements and cultural integrations is mirrored across the lobby by a stained glass feature, inspired by the local wildlife and surrounding nature of San Bernardino and Highland, California. Through May 2026, art displays focused on water, birds, books, clocks, mountains, butterflies and flowers will be prominently featured 
throughout the resort.
