Reno & Lake Tahoe

Reno Highlights
This historic western city has been undergoing a renaissance that’s revitalizing
its midtown and downtown Riverwalk area and attracting innovative companies
like Tesla to locate to the Biggest Little City. Once known primarily for its 24-
hour casino fun, Reno has sprouted new restaurant and shopping districts
and become rightly famous a s world-class hub of outdoor recreations: hiking,
biking, whitewater rafting, golfing and nearby ski resorts. But that’s just a
taste of Reno’s offerings. A metropolitan area of about 425,000 (counting the
neighboring city of Sparks), Reno has a long history of hosting world-class
musicians and touring shows. The cutting-edge architecture and exhibits of the
Nevada Museum of Art and Reno Philharmonic performances attract thousands
every year. Visitors stroll along the Truckee River Whitewater Park and watch
kayaks and colorful, migrating birds.

Tahoe Highlights
The south shore of Lake Tahoe is a year-round vacation paradise of white
sand beaches, breathtaking scenery, world-class skiing and famous name
entertainment. South Tahoe traces its history to the Pony Express and
explorations of Kit Carson. With the settling of the West, glamorous casinos
were built along Tahoe’s shoreline here, a tradition carried forward today by the
entertainment and casino complexes located at Stateline.
Renowned as the host of the 1960 Winter Olympics at Squaw Valley, North
Tahoe is an exhilarating combination of lakeside resort towns, beaches, hiking,
biking, water-sports and America’s largest concentration of ski resorts, plus
the Old West charm of Truckee. Many successful business, entertainment and
political figures have second homes here, and spectacular estates stretch along
the lakeshore from Incline Village to West Shore and in golf communities near
