Bring the Whole Family
Reno, much like Las Vegas, has evolved into more than just a place for grown-ups to gamble exclusively. Nowadays, beyond the usual attractions like casinos and golf courses, attractions and recreational activities abound for entire families including very young kids. To cite just one example, the Galena Creek Park offers visitors both fun and educational hikes around Reno's many awe-inspiring nature trails.

Nightlife
Need a little break from the casino scene? If partying until the early morning hours is just the fix you need, it should come as comforting news to discover that Reno's nightlife runs around-the-clock. First-class entertainment shows, dance clubs, jazz bars and much, much more awaits each and every fun-seeker.

Or perhaps you are into something more on the laid-back side. If so, don't miss Knuckleheads Sports Bar where there are plenty of TVs for catching a game as well as live music. Or how about some exciting jazz at the Reno Jazz Club? And if rum is what you fancy, be sure to check out Rum Bullion's Island Bar where they are famous for their exotic rum concoctions.

Dining Out in Reno
Along with its top-notch gambling action, Reno's casino-hotels have also earned top marks for their excellent dining establishments. Also, with many casino-hotels having enlisted world-renown chefs to attract more patrons, Reno has quickly developed a name for its fine dining as well as its gambling casinos. Plus the range of restaurants covers the entire culinary spectrum, from simple cafes to steakhouses and haute cuisine.
