Nevada

A large County occupying the entire northeast portion of the state, Elko is home to some of the region's most prized and scenic wilderness including the Ruby and Jarbridge Mountains. Often likened to the Swiss Alps, the Ruby Mountains is surrounded by picturesque alpine peaks, glossy wide lakes, steep canyons, and dazzling high-desert valleys. Of course, with such picturesque wilderness comes plenty of opportunities for hunting. Elk, deer and even mountain lions call this area home and attract hunters each year from all over the country. If hunting isn't your thing, you'll be glad to know that Elko County is also home to a surprising number of lakes and recreation areas including the storied Wild Horse and South Fork Reservoirs. Ruby and Franklin Lakes double not only as great places to swim, fish and boat but also as wildlife refugees home to a diverse selection of birds and animals seldom found in the high desert.

Located in north-central Nevada and named for the river that snakes through its borders, Humboldt is the oldest county in the Silver State and one of its most beautiful. Known primarily for its ranches and mines, this region is also home to gorgeous deserts, rugged canyons, peaceful rivers, and pristine lakes. The Black Rock Desert, which hosts the annual Burning Man Festival, boasts more than one hundred twenty miles of historic trails to hike and explore while the Santa Rosa Paradise Peak Wilderness area provides plenty of lakes and streams to fish and swim. In addition, the county seat of Winnemucca is not only the population center of the region, but also known as the "Friendliest Town In Nevada." With its many Basque restaurants, year 'round festivals, churches, schools and laid back cowboy lifestyle, it's easy to see why. Buy land here today and experience all this rural oasis has to offer.

Occupying a swath of land in south-central Nevada larger than quite a few states, Nye County is home to the wide open spaces and evocative scenery that stirs the soul of anyone who ever longed to explore the untamed frontiers of the American West. Part of the Mojave Desert, this area is surrounded by picturesque regions like Red Rock Canyon in the south and Death Valley in the west. Because of its size, however, this largely desert region also offers a diverse range of activities some would not normally expect, such as the skiing offered on the nearby slopes of Mount Charleston to the rivers and streams of the Ash Meadows National Wildlife Refuge. Still a largely rural landscape, Nye County benefits both from the constant development of nearby Las Vegas, as well as the Spring Mountain range which prevents its neighbor to the south from expanding too rapidly and intruding into the quiet communities and western lifestyle this area prides itself on. Its largest town, Pahrump, is often considered a “bedroom community” of nearby Las Vegas as many locals commute daily for work. Of course, this proximity to a large and ever-expanding urban region also means that land in a rural setting like this will only appreciate in value in the years to come. This fact alone makes property in Nye County ideal for both living as well as investing.

Located among the wide open spaces of Northwestern Nevada, Pershing County offers its residents the type of peaceful lifestyle one can hardly find in America's cities or suburbs. The County seat of Lovelock, which is home to no more than two thousand residents, is a charming Western town with just enough schools, churches and medical facilities to help with the raising of a family. Outside of Lovelock, in the more remote reaches of the County, are the sorts of iconic attractions that will provide plenty of opportunity for exploration. From the 11,000 acre Rye Patch State Park with it's 72 miles of shoreline to the Black Rock Desert and its famous Burning Man Festival to the Historic Thunder Mountain Monument, you'll find a surprising amount to experience when you buy land here.
