north shore beach and yacht club reviews

North Shore Yacht Club fights to stay a community hub

The Salton Sea of the 1950s and 1960s has taken on the quality of a fairy tale. Locals who remember those years describe the sea as a bustling weekend oasis, where people raced boats, caught fish and picnicked on the beach.

But after a flood destroyed boat launches and the shores began to recede, many of those visitors abandoned the sea. Tilapia began to die. In the summer, the sea took on its now-famous sulfur smell.

The North Shore Beach and Yacht Club, built to plans by Modernist architect Albert Frey in 1959, is a relic from the Salton Sea’s recreational glory days. The two-story, 6,500-square-foot club now sits far from the water, and some of its boat launches have become dry land. But it remains a community gathering place — and some in the community are fighting to make sure it stays that way.

Linda Beal grew up fishing, boating and swimming in the Salton Sea. The Indio native, now a local historian, still fishes for tilapia on the sea regularly. She remembers eating lunch at Frey's yacht club and staring out at the sea.

“My dad would say that the yacht club was a window on the sea. You can just see everything right there. It draws people there,” Beal said. "They had members, in the early days, when the Beach Boys and the Marx Brothers and Desi (Arnaz) and Lucy (Ball).... The view is just absolutely gorgeous."

But floods in the late 1970s demolished motels on the shore and docks in the water. The shores began to recede in earnest, rendering boat launches useless.

“The Sea went down, so there was no place to launch (boats), and people just sort of walked away,” Beal said. She came back in the 1980s with a sailboat, she said, and was always alone on the water.

Decades passed before Riverside County officials approved a $3.35 million redevelopment project for the North Shore Yacht Club in 2009. Jeannie Kelly, proprietor of the Salton Sea History Museum and a friend of Beal's, undertook the restoration.

"It was in horrible condition, all of the graffiti and bird crap in it, it was just destroyed,” Beal said. “You would have wondered how on earth it could ever be brought back. But (Kelly) researched and brought back the colors, the corrugated fiberglass the way it was, even the floor tile… It was a marvel.”

Kelly's Salton Sea History Museum filled the yacht club for a year, then moved to the Torres-Martinez Desert Cahuilla Indians Wetlands property after a dispute with the county over its nonprofit status. Now, its contents sit in boxes in a North Shore house.

Director struggles to reopen Salton Sea History Museum

Kelly died in 2015, but her restoration work remains. The North Shore Beach and Yacht Club is owned by Riverside County and managed by the Desert Recreation District. It hosts Zumba classes, after-school daycare and displays of art by local students, according to DRD public information officer Noelle Furon.

Catholic Charities also uses the building to distribute food, Furon said. Other agencies have used it over the years intermittently as a mobile library and pop-up health clinic.

This spring, the publicly funded DRD plans to open a fitness center with weights and exercise machines in the building.

“We really are trying to integrate the community with the community center and have them have a hand in it,” Furon said. “We try to reach out and see, what would (the community) like this area to be used for? This time, it was that they wanted a workout space.”

North Shore, the township nearest to the yacht club, was home to about 3,500 people, according to the 2010 U.S. Census. Nearby Mecca had about 8,600 people. In Furon’s words, “it’s not a huge community, you’re not going to get Planet Fitness opening there” — but she hopes the public facility can help.

And a handful of other groups are trying to promote the yacht club and its environs. Last fall, nonprofits from L.A. and North Shore teamed up for Projections , a community arts festival featuring images projected onto abandoned buildings along Highway 111.

"If you tell someone you've been to North Shore, they say 'Oh those abandoned buildings.' But the people who live here have so many ideas for what these buildings can be," Evelyn Serrano, an artistic director with L.A. nonprofit Kounkuey, told The Desert Sun during that event.

Beginning on Feb. 12, a nonprofit called Seathletes will host a three-day gathering for boaters called North Shore Xtreme .

The organizers expect around 300 athletes to compete in outrigger (a certain type of rowing) and stand-up paddle races on the water. Boats for both sports are thin enough that they can float on the shallow sea; Seathletes executive director Davy Aker emphasized that state officials have deemed the sea safe for boating and fishing.

Aker said the weekend's schedule will include presentations by the Torres Martinez Desert Cahuilla Indians and a panel on the future of the Salton Sea, along with camping, daily hikes and yoga. They'll also display art inside the yacht club, on view for people attending a Modernism Week tour.

Seathletes has also partnered with the Desert Recreation District to start an outrigging club for local kids, Kai Wai .

"Everybody wants people recreating and feeling pride in their town, but there's no program to get people out on the water," Aker said. "We're just trying to shine a light on a dark space and change the narrative."

For locals, though, this isn't a "dark space" — it's home. And while people in North Shore live near the sea, resident Lucio Vasquez said it's hardly the center of their community. Highway 111 cuts between the shores and most of the town.

"It's an awesome building and a beautiful building, it's about the nicest building in this area," said Vasquez, who serves on the Mecca-North Shore Community Council. "In my opinion, it's just not being used to the extent that it can, and the reason is because where the yacht club is is not central to the community."

To send kids to after-school programs there, for instance, parents have to drop them off and pick them up. Vasquez said he'd never let his kids bike along Highway 111.

"A real community center would have a lot more use if it was more central to the community," he added.

But right now, North Shore lacks community space. The unincorporated town only has a small park, Vasquez said; neighboring Mecca has a Boys & Girls Club and a public library.

Furon of the Desert Recreation District emphasized that their programs exist to serve the community, and they try to meet whatever needs people express. The yacht club provides space for quinceneras, birthday parties and community meetings that just doesn't exist elsewhere. With the addition of a gym and regular rowing activity, local leaders think it will continue to be a versatile community place.

And Salton Sea-focused advocates say that it's not just that people need the sea — it's that the sea needs them.

"If we had proper places to launch (boats), and people could go out and have fun on the water again... it's just a beautiful place to be," Beal said. "There's so much interest, people want to go down there, young people are interested in the sea. We need the minds of the young people to come up with the solutions."

North Shore Beach & Yacht Club

The North Shore Beach and Yacht Club was built in 1960 by developers Ray Ryan and Trav Rogers for $2 million. Designed in a nautical theme by renowned mid-century architect, Albert Frey, the complex boasted one of the largest marinas in Southern California.  An adjacent motel was built with additional plans for the North Shore Beach Estates, a planned housing development that never materialized. The Beach Boys, Jerry Lewis, and Marx Brothers all visited the club or kept boats at the marina. The complex marketed as the “The Glamour Capital of the Salton Sea” hosted boat races, parties, and other popular events. Ryan, an oil millionaire with reputed mob connections and a taste for gambling was killed in a mysterious car bombing in 1977.

During the early 1980s, flooding from excessive agricultural wastewater discharges from Imperial Valley farms in conjunction with higher-than-normal seasonal storm runoff began to inundate the marina and surrounding property.  One such flood in 1981 destroyed the marina’s jetty making it impossible to dock boats. Eventually the facility was closed by 1984 leaving it to vandals and skate boarders that frequented the club’s pool.

In July 2009, Riverside County supervisors approved the use of a $3.35 million grant to rehabilitate and redevelop the property. Restoration of Frey’s yacht club building was completed in 2010 and reopened as a community center and museum for the Salton Sea. The museum’s tenure at this prime location was short-lived however; Riverside County officials decided not to renew the operational arrangement with the museum staff and it was moved to a new location in Mecca, which has since closed. The museum staff is currently looking for another location. For more information, visit: http://saltonseamuseum.org/ .

North Shore Beach and Yacht Club

Introduction.

Text-to-speech Audio

Backstory and Context

Approximately 600 tons of added salt continue to be deposited in the sea annually through irrigation water from the Colorado River. Some of the first resorts on the Salton Sea emerged in the 1920s and 1930s. These resorts catered to travelers who wanted to witness the mysterious sea in the middle of the desert. Recreation--boating, swimming, fishing--remained an important part of the Salton Sea through the 1950s when the North Shore Beach and Yacht Club was built.

North Shore Beach & Yacht Club at the Salton Sea

The Albert Frey-designed North Shore Beach & Yacht Club is an historic icon that re-opened in May of 2010. The Salton Sea History Museum & Visitor Center was located in historic icon until 6-2011. The museum's visitor center is the No. 1 source for up to date information on the Salton Sea, in addition to the fabulous history of the area and may return to the facility in the coming months.

Thinking this would be a pleasant inland beach area for us near Palm Springs, Oh! what a surprise, it was derelict and smelly. Don't make the same mistake, avoid at all costs!!

We hit the North Shore and Mecca Beach areas of the Salton Sea while in Palm Springs. I was very surprised to find that the Albert Frey designed North Shore Yacht Club has been restored. Unfortunately, it was the New Years holiday and the site was closed so I don't know what the interior looks like now. I heard from people at the state park that it did have a museum in it until recently and that it is being considered for a youth center now. I was surprise how beautiful the sea still is but also so tragic. The bird population is truly impressive - don't believe the videos and documentaries that only show the decline of this area - it is worth a visit.

This place is a hidden gem that's underutilized. For less then $300 bucks, a beachfront clubhouse with a huge deck including grills, tables, kitchen, showers, equipment, storage, and free to use club equipment such as kayaks, paddle boards, windsurfers... I'm here almost everyday. I can't understand why this place isn't completely packed with members all summer.
