Far from Vegas, close to home
Reno is packed full of amazing things to do, setting it apart from many other small cities. We've got world renowned chefs, balloon races, rib cookoffs, Hot August Nights, amazing coffee shops, walks along the gorgeous river (and whitewater park) and so much more.
Reno is called The Biggest Little City for a reason. We are a mecca for tech industry and home to many great businesses - but we're small enough to connect on a personal level.
Tahoe is as vibrant as you
Unmatched in its beauty, Lake Tahoe is the nation's largest alpine lake. With an abundance of activities for everyone, it's no wonder people fall in love with Lake Tahoe. For an extra treat, catch a Shakespeare on the Lake play in the summer.

Lake Tahoe is a 45-minute drive from The University, but it feels a world away. The proximity of Lake Tahoe and the High Sierras is just one reason Reno-Tahoe is known as one of the best areas for outdoor sports and recreation. For outdoor activities, you can't beat Lake Tahoe. With snow activities, water sports, hiking, biking, golf, rock climbing, fishing, horseback riding, and so much more, the only limit to what you can do is your imagination.
