Primm Valley Casino Resorts, the last full-time casino among a cluster of three off Interstate 15 in Primm, at the California-Nevada border, is permanently closing July 4, a publicist for owner Affinity Gaming confirmed Wednesday.

The shutdown is part of a broader round of closures in Primm. Primm Valley Resort is set to join Buffalo Bill’s and Whiskey Pete’s, along with the Flying J, which are expected to close indefinitely in early July.
