Spring Creek

Tucked along the western foot of Nevada’s Ruby Mountains, Spring Creek is a place whose character is shaped by the dry, open terrain of the Great Basin. This census-designated community lies in Elko County, east of Elko, where high-desert neighborhoods meet broad sagebrush country. South Fork Reservoir, on the South Fork Humboldt River, is nearby and adds a waterside counterpoint to the otherwise arid setting. Spring Creek developed as a planned community during the 1970s and remains closely connected to northeastern Nevada’s ranching, mining, and outdoor traditions.
