Located in Old Southwest within 2 miles (3 km) of Peppermill, this vacation home is within a few miles (5 km) of other popular sights such as Grand Sierra Resort Casino. The vacation home includes a kitchen, a dining area, and a refrigerator.
Step into a piece of Reno history with this beautifully preserved 1940-built bungalow in the heart of Midtown. Full of character and thoughtfully updated for modern comfort, this cozy retreat places you just one mile from downtown and the scenic Truckee River and only a five-minute walk to some of Reno’s best restaurants, bars, cafés, and local shops.
Spend your mornings strolling to coffee, afternoons biking or hiking along the river, and evenings enjoying Midtown’s vibrant energy. When you’re ready to venture out, Lake Tahoe, Virginia City, Carson City, and top ski resorts like Mt. Rose, Diamond Peak, and Palisades Tahoe are all within a stunning 45-minute drive. This central location truly makes exploring the Reno–Tahoe area effortless.

I couldn't have asked for a better place to stay in Reno. This charming 2ba 1ba home was so well appointed, quiet, cozy and clean. Our hosts did a great job preparing for our stay. Great instructions were provided that were easy to follow. My wife and I would definitely stay here again.
