Lakeridge: Classic Golf & Lakeside Elegance
Lakeridge is an established neighborhood anchored by the popular Lakeridge Golf Course. Designed with a focus on manicured green spaces, deciduous trees, and some beautiful views, feels lush. With its lush landscaping and mature deciduous trees, Lakeridge has the feel of an established country-club neighborhood — a striking contrast to the high-desert landscape found in newer Northwest Reno golf communities such as Somersett.
Architecture & Real Estate: Lakeridge offers a diverse range of housing stock, from mid-Century modern, to contemporary homes on large lots with sprawling green lawns, to traditional ranch-style homes, some of which are beautifully remodeled with clean, contemporary finishes. As someone who grew up back East, Lakeridge, with its deciduous trees, and beautiful Fall colors, reminds me a lot of the East Coast.
Lakeridge Shores, a gated neighborhood surrounding Lake Stanley is a focal point of Lakeridge. The private man-made reservoir is not swimmable, but residents can fish there, paddleboard, or launch small boats right from their backyards.
Convenient Location: Positioned perfectly just off the McCarran Loop, Lakeridge offers easy access to the Plumb Lane and South Virginia commercial corridors. The shopping centers nearby, like Plumgate, are very walkable with specialty wine shops, and lunch spots offering gourmet selections.
Caughlin Ranch: Trails, Open Space & Ultra-Luxury
The Reno Gazette Journal calls Caughlin Ranch "a forest oasis in the middle of the hustle and bustle that is Reno" And it's no exaggeration. 
Spanning roughly 2,300 acres from the Truckee River near I-80 up into the foothills of the Toiyabe National Forest, Caughlin Ranch is one of Reno's most established master-planned communities. It was intentionally built to preserve the area's natural rugged geography, native trees, and seasonal waterways.

It was intentionally built to preserve the area's natural rugged geography, native trees, and seasonal waterways.Architecture & Real Estate: Caughlin Ranch consists of roughly 30 sub-neighborhoods (some of them gated). Buyers can find semi-custom ranch-style homes, upscale executive townhouses, and contemporary or craftsman-style homes behind the gates at Eagle's Nest and Promontory Point, which feature expansive, multi-million dollar custom estates with dramatic city and mountain views. The visual aesthetic avoids uniform stucco, leaning heavily into timeless, high-end materials that complement the mountain backdrop.
An Active, Open Lifestyle: With 24 miles of walking/biking trails that wind past streams, historic ponds, and dense groves of mature trees, recreation opportunities abound in Caughlin Ranch. Several clubs offer outstanding golf, tennis and fitness programming. Among them is the Caughlin Club, a private athletic center offering a fitness facility, swimming pool, tennis, and pickleball courts,
Atmosphere: It has a highly tranquil, private feel with exceptionally low interior traffic noise, yet it remains highly accessible—only about a 10-minute commute to downtown Reno or a straight shot up to Lake Tahoe via the Mt. Rose Highway or I-80
Convenient Location: Easily accessed via S. McCarran, these neighborhoods are close to downtown with nearby shopping, easy freeway access & amenities.
