You can bet on Reno
While the city is best known for the brassy neon signs alighting a handful of downtown casinos, Reno is truly much more than a gambling grotto.

Tucked into the Sierra Nevadas, just over the hill from Lake Tahoe, Reno is blessed with magnificent alpine and desert scenery that begs to be explored, so pop into your Reno airport car rental alternative to take in the sights, sounds, and majesty.
