Just a few minutes west of Reno.

The Sparks Marina is close to the RV Park.

Sparks Marina rv ,is there a lake or water? Looked but didn't see on their site.Always check out any campgroung with marina in it,for possible rving and boating.Im thinking this time there is no connection?

Small lake.

Shamrock is our choice. We've stayed there many times. It is quiet, easy access, clean and nice people running it. It's also close to town. Bonanza casino, around the corner, has GREAT Sunday buffet (at least they did last year). Easy access .....you can go either left or right out of the park and get on either Old 395 or New 395....Old 395 takes you right into downtown Reno. New 395 takes you out to the other casinos (Peppermill)......or on out of town.

We are former residents of Reno and staying at Shamrock RV right now. I highly recommend it, the park is excellently maintained. For example, the laundry room floor is waxed and very clean. The bathrooms are immaculate and just painted. It is located in an industrial area of Reno, so what? It's close to the 395 and easy access to everything. Shamrock has easy acess, long pull throughs on rows E, F & G. DO NOT stay at the Bonanza Terrace, we drove through and it's very junky, many permanent residents with plywood around the bottom of the rv. It is also very hilly, you notice that many people say you have to back up hill to get into the site on rv park reviews? We've stayed at the Grand Sierra and it's fine too, flat easy access sites. Sparks Marina RV sites are a bit more narrow & shorter but has nice facilities. The "marina" part of it is an old rock quarry that filled up with water during the flood of the Truckee River in 1997, I think. The Sparks city officials left the water and re named it a marina, now it has a park, outlet mall and an rv park. They stock it with fish. You say you are coming early September, try to avoid Labor Day weekend, that's the time of the rib cookoff in Sparks and all rv parks are packed and they raise the rates to $65 or $75 a day. Boomtown is a bit further out of town, I don't like KOA's so I would never stay there. You can pm me if you have any other questions I can answer.

And don't forget the Reno Air Races in Sept. as well.

We stayed at Sparks Marina for 8 days last May while visiting relatives and waiting for our mail to catch up. It is not our usual cup-of-tea as we are State Park, National Park, COE type campers. We enjoyed our stay though. It was clean, quite, and surprisingly friendly! The staff went out of their way to make us comfortable and we enjoyed meeting a wide variety of campers. The walk down to the lake is pleasant. We will stay there again. lizzie

Long ways for the OP to go since he's asking about visiting and staying in Reno.

We have stayed several times at the Victorian RV park in Sparks. Very satisfied.
