Camping & Lodging
Washoe Valley is located between Reno and Carson City. It's mostly protected land, wildlife habitat and small ranches. There are LOTS of wild horses, but there are no restaurants, stores or lodging facilities in the Valley. Reno is 20 miles to the north, and Carson City is 8 miles to the south.
CAMPING
Washoe Lake State Park Campground
We have reserved the North Group Area at Washoe Lake State Park, from Thursday through Sunday. It is located 9 miles from the Festival, on the other side of Washoe Lake (see map) It's a very large area of dry camping with a central Pavillion that has electricity, grills, tables, and restrooms. Showers are available in the adjacent campground loops. Nightly fee is $15 per Nevada vehicle, $20 for out-of-state vehicles. Send email to info@nnba.org if you want to camp in the North Group Area. If you want a site with hookups, you'll need to make a reservation with the Park. Click here to go to Park Reservations.
