Everyone knows that Las Vegas is the biggest attraction in Nevada, but there is more - much, much more - to the state. With a Nevada vacation rental, you'll be able to get away from the neon lights and really experience something of the old American West. You won't even know you're in the same universe as Vegas, which is probably a good thing.

The rugged landscapes of the Great Basin and the stunning beauty of Lake Tahoe make a Nevada vacation rental a real treat for any nature lover. Of course, parts of the state are so hot as to be unbearable during the height of summer, but many of those same areas become great warm weather escapes from the dead of winter up north. There is also excellent skiing in some parts of this state, most notably around Lake Tahoe, as well as great golf courses. If you want to get a little off the beaten path in Nevada, all you have to do is get away from Las Vegas and you're already doing pretty well.

Vacation rentals in Nevada vary in terms of style and size, so you should be able to find something that suits your needs. There are small and comfortable condos for two which make for a great romantic getaway, and there are spacious private homes tucked into the hills which might be ideal for a family holiday. Some of the condo units have nice shared facilities which you can enjoy, and some of the vacation properties boast excellent views or proximity to local attractions.

The benefits of choosing a vacation rental in Nevada instead of a hotel for your trip are numerous. Some of the big ones are - added privacy (you won't have to worry about housekeeping coming in to disturb you at random times during the day, when all you want to do is relax and pretend you live there!), central location (you'll be able to take day trips without packing your bags every other day to explore the area), and money savings (by cooking some of your own meals you'll save big over eating out all the time).
