Genoa NV - The Best Places To Eat And Drink in Genoa

2008-09-18T20:48:00.000-07:00

Genoa Nevada has five great spots to grab a meal, a sandwich, and a cup of coffee, something sweet or a cocktail!

La Ferme is a full bar and restaurant open Tuesday thru Sunday in Genoa. It offers a fine French menu that is famous throughout the Carson Valley, Reno and Tahoe. The food is very delicious and there are different specials all of the time. The ambiance is cozy as well with a fireplace blazing in the winter and lots of great company year round.

The Genoa Country Store is a local’s favorite. Recently under new ownership the Country Store offers a variety of options including sandwiches, hot dogs, salads, soups, daily specials, breakfast burritos/sandwiches and ice cream. In the summer there are also frequent bbq lunches to choose from. On Friday nights there is wine tasting and open mic night and on Wednesdays it’s Family Dinner night that features a full dinner at a reasonable price. The Genoa Country Store also has a fully stocked market so it is very convenient if you need basic groceries instead of driving into town.

Want a cup of coffee with a scone or some candy? Then the Genoa Coffee & Candy Company is the place to visit. Freshly brewed coffee right here in Genoa will satisfy your coffee cravings. Children and adults love the sweets- homemade fudge, ice cream, taffy, and pretty much any candy you can crave you will find here.

Sugarplum Bakery can definitely satisfy your sweet tooth and can also fill you up with quiche, pot pies, and my favorite the turkey wraps. You can order custom cakes for any occasion and pick up fresh bread baked daily. With great outdoor seating and lots of options Sugarplum is a great place to eat.

Last but not least is the famous Genoa Bar- Nevada’s oldest thirst parlor. Most people that come through Genoa visit the Genoa Bar. It has great history behind it and is mainly all original inside and out! Many movie stars have frequented the bar and some scenes in the movie Misery were even filmed there. Even if you do not feel like a cocktail at least stop by for some water or a soda- it is worth it!

Genoa, NV - Why Genoa is a Great Place to Live

2008-09-18T05:45:00.003-07:00

Genoa Nevada is a quaint town located minutes from Lake Tahoe, Carson City and Reno. It is a magical place to live because there is a real community feeling. Everyone knows everyone else and pitches in with the town to make lots of great community events. From Saint Patrick’s Day until Christmas there is always something going on.

The climate is very mild. We do get the full four seasons, but all are very manageable. Summer usually climbs up into the 90’s with a dry heat and winters can get in the 30’s. We do get snow, but it melts within hours if not a day or two. If anyone wants to see more snow or hit some great ski resorts Lake Tahoe is only 15 miles away.

The scenery is spectacular here. The Carson Valley has some of the best views imaginable. With the Sierra Mountain Range and the lush green pastures of the Valley any direction you look you will be impressed. There are two parks in Genoa- Mormon Station Park and the Genoa Park. Throughout the summer there are really fun concerts in the Genoa Park.

Genoa has two championship golf courses Genoa Lakes and Genoa Lakes Golf Resort. The courses are two miles apart and both offer beautiful club houses, tennis courts, restaurants, and custom & semi custom homes throughout. The Genoa Lakes Golf Resort has a newly opened recreation center with a beautiful full gym, tennis courts, swimming pool, locker rooms and a large conference/entertaining room that is available for all members to use.

Genoa really has something for everyone to enjoy. From ranches, custom homes on a couple acres, golf course homes, patio homes, historic properties and vacant land. It is a great place to raise a family or retire. We love living here and think you would also!

Genoa, NV - Finding a good bargain in Genoa, NV

2008-09-18T05:45:00.001-07:00

Genoa Nevada has a different real estate market than many other areas. Genoa is a very highly desirable area because of the beautiful landscape and the convenient location, but finding a good bargain here can take some time. Although we are seeing many more families moving into the area the majority of the home owners in Genoa are retirees.

Genoa is one of the most expensive areas in the Carson Valley and because most of the home owners are retirees they are not in a hurry to sell, nor do they feel they need to lower their prices due to the economy. In this slow market we have seen minimal reductions, but not the drastic price reductions that have been occurring in other areas where the sellers are more dependent on jobs and need to sell quickly. Sometimes a house or land will come up that sells within 30 days because it is a good bargain or it is what a buyer has been waiting for.

The best way to find a good bargain in Genoa is to watch the listings. Signing up for automatic email notifications on our website www.carsonvalleyhomefinder.com is a great way to watch for new or reduced listings. With the automatic emails prospective buyers can sign up for anywhere in Northern Nevada and our website generates emails whenever there is a new property or a reduced price.

Currently the best bargain in Genoa is located at 2551 Eagle Ridge Road a great 3 acre lot in the prestigious Eagle Ridge subdivision. The lot overlooks the valley and has great views of Jobs Peak. It is just reduced to $399,000 which is $85,000 less than any other lot in Eagle Ridge!! Call Chad Coons (775) 720-2115 or Gina Gillmor Coons (775) 721-3988 for more details.

Genoa, NV - Genoa Lakes Golf Course & Genoa Lakes Golf Resort

2008-09-18T05:45:00.000-07:00

Genoa Lakes Golf Course & Resort Course are both 18 hole semi-private courses. Genoa Lakes Course offers a beautiful golf course with large ponds throughout. There is an award winning restaurant Antocci’s and a spectacular club house. Genoa Lakes is one of the most popular locations to get married in the Carson Valley.

The course is surrounded by the majestic Sierra Mountain and Valley views along with custom homes. The custom homes surrounding the golf course range in price from $799,000 and up. If you are looking for a smaller scale there are also patio homes available starting in the low $400,000 range?

The Genoa Lakes Golf Resort (formally Sierra NV Golf Course) is 2 miles North on Jacks Valley Road from the Lakes Course. The Resort Course is also a magnificent course with beautiful views. The clubhouse is a large rustic lodge-like atmosphere with a great restaurant & snack bar, pro shop, and a favorite place for events. The Resort Course also has a large recreation center.

The re center offers a large outdoor pool & spa, tennis courts, banquet room, aerobics room, and a full gym with brand new top of the line equipment. The Resort Course also has semi custom homes throughout the development ranging from $650,000 and up. Either ways you look at it both courses are great and offer different amenities depending on your needs.
