Lemmon Valley

Lemmon Valley stretches across a dry basin between Peavine Peak and the Virginia Range in western Nevada, and its open terrain has tied the community closely to the expanding Reno–Sparks metropolitan area. This unincorporated part of Washoe County lies north of Reno, where sagebrush flats and broad mountain horizons contrast with the denser urban districts of the Truckee Meadows. Swan Lake, a shallow intermittent lakebed in the valley, reflects the basin’s arid climate and variable water conditions. Development, ranchland and high-desert surroundings meet here in a distinctly northern Nevada setting.
