LAS VEGAS DESTINATIONS

Reno Golf Guide

The stunning 228-yard, par-3 features a 140-foot drop to a green surrounded by water. It's one of the best holes anywhere, enough to help you forget the paycheck you just blew at the casino and that fact that you're not in Vegas.

While Reno is facing increasing competition from other gambling cities and Indian reservations, this city on the eastern slopes of the Sierra Nevadas still boasts of its reputation as "The Biggest Little City in the World."

Reno is a city of 184,000 on the Truckee River that serves as a major distribution center and has a thriving arts scene to go along with 24-hour gambling.

Part of the city's allure is that it's near Lake Tahoe, and indeed it is the starting point for most people who fly to the Tahoe area. Is it a destination? For conventioneers looking to avoid the high prices of Las Vegas, yes. For gamblers and golfers seeking an alternative to the glitz of Vegas, affirmative again.

Lake Ridge Golf Club:
No Time Like the Present in Reno

August is prime time for Reno, Nevada, the Biggest Little City in The World. The summer months mean that the hot weather is conducive to outdoor activities and the city lines up a series of events to celebrate that fact. Hot August Nights brings in hot rods and 50's nostalgia, the chili cook off brings in aficionados of Southwestern Cooking, and the PGA Tour even rolls into town for the Reno Tahoe Open.

Reno Transportation

Reno and Tahoe share their own international airport. Reno/Tahoe International Airport has flights daily from most major airlines. The airport is off of I-395, which runs from Northern California to Carson City. An exit onto I-395 from I-80 can bring commuters from Salt lake City and the Bay Area. From Las Vegas, however, there is no major highway. Drivers from Vegas will have to follow a combination of U.S. and state highways to reach the Reno/Tahoe area.
