We’re GOING INSIDE a casino building that was ABANDONED for 40 years, the River Inn in Reno, Nevada!

Come along with us as we take a tour (with the owner) of the old River Inn in Reno, Nevada! We’ll explore the story of this unique and historic parcel that was previously Lawton’s Hot Springs, founded in 1884. Situated right on the Truckee River to the west of downtown, this property is legendary in the northern Nevada area – this is your chance to learn about its history and to see what remains inside and on the grounds! We'll finish up with a craft beer at Reno's newest alehouse in the brewery district - Lake Tahoe Ale Worx. A BIG thank you to Lawrence and Dana for allowing us to share this story!

Please share this channel with your friends! Growing this channel should get me the credibility to get access to even better content for you! Link to our Harolds Club documentary DVD: https://www.ebay.com/itm/115802884891 Title theme written and performed by Steve. Drums by Scott Taylor. I wrote and recorded the acoustic guitar piece that's under the beginning of this video. The rest of the music is courtesy of the YouTube Creator library. This is the place to learn interesting things about Reno, the state of Nevada and the American west! I've lived in Reno for 38 years (as an adult!). I've had a lifelong interest in history and spend much time exploring and researching this wonderful area. I started this channel to share some of what I've learned. I produced a full-length documentary film on the history of Reno's Harolds Club casino in 2015. Perhaps you're thinking of moving to Reno and looking for background on the area, or you're already a resident and this content might help give you a sense of place. I shall endeavor to cater to both groups! I'm also a craft beer enthusiast, and thought I'd talk about some of that scene here as well. I started homebrewing in 1992, and earned the Certified Cicerone designation in 2015 - this is a sommelier-like program for beer people. Please subscribe, share and come along with me on this journey! Thanks and cheers! Steve #history #reno #nevada #western
