A countrified place to live. . . Discover the fertile ranch lands of the Washoe
Valley-a rural area tucked at the eastern foot of the Sierra Nevada in Washoe
County.
The Lifestyle: A wild west atmosphere filled the air
back in the 1900s when this valley was founded as a Mormon settlement. It's rich
roots soon became linked to less tame elements of the Wild West...the lumber
trade railroad, and the gun slinging, dance-hall saloons of the Gold and Silver
Rush. These days, amongst the ranching community the old-fashioned country
lifestyle still exists in God's country.
Neighborhood Features: Washoe Valley offers so much
more because you are nearby Carson City and Reno-places to get a convenient
taste of the fast pace of life.
Hot Spot: Lightning Ranch golf course boasts home
sites which provide homeowners with a home style feel and lake and mountain
views. Washoe Lake also draws attention to wind surfing and kayaking, and golf
lovers will love The Golf Club at Genoa Lakes and Sierra Nevada Golf Course.
Best Homes: Today, properties range from small
farmhouses to large country estates and ranches on widespread tracts of land,
featuring awesome views of both Slide Mountain, Mt. Rose and Washoe Lake.
