Things to do in Reno
River West Resort is an easy walk or short drive to the many attractions around Reno. Head down to one of the many casinos and try your luck on the slots or table games. Or perhaps tour the National Automobile Museum to see over 200 antique and vintage models. The Midtown area is also nearby with many quality restaurants to choose from. We visited Homegrown Gastropub for pizza and drinks and were not disappointed!
You also won’t want to miss the famous Reno Arch. Stop by after sunset to get photos once the sign is lit up!

Lake Tahoe is also less than an hour away with scenic hiking and biking trails, water activities like kayaking during the summer, and winter activities such as snowshoeing. There is much to see and do nearby in Carson City and Sparks, Nevada as well.
