Nevada
Nevada’s history is rooted in the Wild West, from cowboys
and Indians to train robberies and silver and gold mines. Though
much has changed over the decades – Nevada now draws more
than 50 million visitors each year and attracts international audiences – much
of the allure of the state is still found in its western heritage
and propensity as a playground for adults.
Famous for glittering resorts, small town festivals, scenic attractions
and man-made wonders, Nevada continues its strong tradition as
a playground for the adventurer in all of us. Playgrounds come
in all shapes and sizes.
With more than 100 courses throughout the state, Nevada is truly
a golfer’s paradise. From championship courses such as the
54-hole Las Vegas Paiute Resort to casual, recreational links like
the nine-hole Brookside Golf Course in Reno, Nevada has endless
recreational options for golfers. There are more than 50 courses
within two hours of Las Vegas including three dozen in the immediate
area. The Reno-Lake Tahoe region offers more than 50 golf courses
within an hour of the Reno-Tahoe International Airport. Many of
Nevada’s casino-resorts offer their visitors fine golfing
options as well.
Nevada’s casino-resorts become more imaginative and lavish
every year. Visitors can spend the night in a pyramid, a penthouse
suite overlooking breathtaking Lake Tahoe, or a rustic bed and
breakfast in a ghost town.
If it’s the glitz and glamour of Las Vegas or Reno, the
tranquility of Lake Tahoe, or experiencing the true history of
the Old West, Nevada is home to a variety of resort options sure
to fit your style.
