About Reno
Reno, Nevada sits at the base of the Sierra Nevada mountains, just 30 minutes from Lake Tahoe. Known as The Biggest Little City in the World, Reno offers world-class skiing at Mt. Rose and Squaw Valley, a thriving Midtown renaissance with craft breweries and locally owned restaurants, and serves as the gateway to Burning Man each summer. With a booming craft beer scene, stunning outdoor recreation, and a more affordable lifestyle than neighboring California, Reno has become one of the West's most exciting small cities.
