Gardnerville Town in Nevada 21 reviews
#8 Best Places to Raise a Family in Nevada
Current Resident: When you drop over the hill from Carson City into the Carson Valley, the view literally takes your breath away--it did mine! The rough, majestic Sierra-Nevadas to the right, hinting at the beauty of Lake Tahoe just the other side, and the lush green valley floor spreading out before you...nothing beats it. As you come into the Minden/Gardnerville area, the quaintness and serenity hits you. It's small and lovely, but not TOO small. We have discovered many options here depending on your ideal lifestyle. Apartments, town homes, duplexes, single family homes and large, beautiful ranches. Everyone is friendly if they're local. If you like casino life, (this is Nevada, after all)there are several small casinos, and one that is fairly large, yet they maintain the appearance of a rustic small town. There are some tiny hole-in the wall bars where locals hang that are fun, and many, many adorable antique shops and second hand stores to browse. We have it all! Read 21 Reviews
