Cold Springs, NV

For many years I drove around the Bordertown/Cold Springs part of Reno and never stopped in to the Bordertown Casino. This place has been around since Virginia Street was the way to Reno. Recently that changed and I went in for dinner.

The Kafana is the cafe located inside the small casino. It's nothing fancy but it's clean and the service is good. But what about the important part? The food! Well in the two times I've eaten there the food has been good and priced reasonably. They also have daily specials like the $1 tacos. They are ground beef tacos which are not my favorite but I was surprised on the size and how tasty they were. You have your choice of soft or hard shell. The hard shell tacos are not the standard hard out of the box shells. They are a fried crunchy shell that is light an flaky. This place is a little far out for most of Reno but if your in Cold Springs or the North Valleys it's worth a trip up to Bordertown to get a go,od cheap meal. http://www.bordertowncasinorv.com/dining/

For a small area of 19 square miles like Cold Springs there is a wide variety of house types. There are big homes and small homes, large lots and small lots. You can find newer stucco homes and down the road you find the more typical wood sided homes familiar to this area. Cold Springs also has a fair amount of manufactured homes. That is a broad scope in just 3200 homes. What do they all have in common? I can inspect them all. When you buy a home in Cold Springs or any other place it is always a good idea to have a Home Inspection. A good Home Inspection is invaluable and should not be something that is passed up.

Hi Northern Nevada Neighbors,

This is a new feature of my Active Rain Localism blog -- a place for local folks to read about my listings that have sold! This was a quaint 7 year old home in Reno-Cold Springs -- a North Valley property! At 1,696 sq. ft., with 3-bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, this was a bargain for the buyer. A traditional home with a two-car garage and lots of extras, the buyers loved it! The best part of this was the great Rasner-Yacenda price in the "Market that's Not Supposed to be Very Good!" Check it out, you'll be impressed what this buyer found among my listings! And remember: I HAVE THE LISTINGS THAT SELL BECAUSE I HAVE GREAT BUYS!

Check it out right here!
