Reno Vacation Package Sale

Some people like to call Reno, Nevada a poor man’s Las Vegas. That isn’t exactly the label one wants to read when they are going to a city that is known for its gambling establishments. Perhaps a better endorsement would be to call Reno a luck man’s Las Vegas.

Poor or lucky, Reno is what it is, which is primarily a city of casinos. That means lots of large rooms with gaming tables where you never can tell what time of day it is. That means hotels that are both elegant and tacky. That means multiple buffet dining options with food that is high in calories and sometimes even edible. That means the same kind of debauchery that you’ll find in Las Vegas and other gambling cities, and if you need me to describe this debauchery you probably shouldn’t go to Reno.

In addition to all that, Reno offers a chance to appreciate nature in between spins of the roulette wheel. It is only a short drive from Lake Tahoe and all her splendors so if you get tired of the gambling scene you can get a reprieve across the California border.

Maybe we should start calling Reno an eco-groovy man’s Las Vegas.
