Deer Run Ranch

2/6/2015

 
Tucked away at the southeastern corner of lovely Washoe Valley, just 10 minutes from the state capitol of Carson City, Deer Run Ranch is as bucolic and friendly as B&Bs get. Enjoy beautiful blue skies and stellar views of the Carson Range to the west. Both rooms offer a private bath with TV and WiFi; they share a good-sized sitting room, where breakfast is served, plus coffee service. There is a private entry that leads to a pond and view of the Sierra. Closest neighbor is Washoe Lake State Park. Thanks to a new highway extension to the north, it’s only 20 minutes to the Reno-Tahoe International Airport. Guests come from all over the world, especially from California and the West. No pets allowed, but there are a couple of dogs on property to keep visitors company.

Number of rooms: 2

Years in business: 25

History: The spring on the property was used as a still during prohibition, while the gardens provided produce to Virginia City during its 19th century mining boom.

Types of food served: Muffy cooks a full breakfast depending on what’s in season in the garden. She varies it every other day — savory one day, sweet the next — and can accommodate some special diets.

Unique Setting: The ranch is a working alfalfa/grass hay operation complete with farm and ranch equipment. The views are vast and inspiring. There’s plenty of bird and wildlife viewing, plus a pottery studio for viewing and buying. “There’s also a garden, and people can wander wherever they want,” says Muffy.

Rates: $119-$149 per night

Weddings or meetings: No

Popular nearby attractions: Carson City and its variety of historical sites, the state capitol building, museums, shopping, parks and other attractions, is within a 10-minute drive. Reno is 20 minutes to the north and Lake Tahoe is no more than 45 minutes away. Countless hiking trails abound, along with fishing streams and lakes, golf courses and many more outdoor pursuits.
