Davis Creek Regional Park
✗ Fully BookedPine-shaded oasis between Reno and Carson City — stunning Washoe Valley views
A gem of a Washoe County park tucked into tall Jeffrey pines at the base of Slide Mountain, 20 miles south of Reno and 15 miles from Lake Tahoe. 62 sites spread across forested terrain with incredible views of Washoe Lake and the snow-capped Carson Range. Hot showers, flush toilets, hiking trails into the national forest, and the historic Bowers Mansion just down the road. One of the best-value campgrounds in the Reno-Tahoe region.
