Douglas County – Welcome

Welcome.

"A Community to Match the Scenery"

Centrally located just 15 minutes south of Nevada’s state capital and bordering the truly one-of-a-kind Lake Tahoe with all its summer and winter activities, Douglas County is recognized as the gem of Northern Nevada - a hidden jewel. On Nevada’s western border, framed by the Carson Range of the Sierra Nevada and Pine Nut Mountains, Douglas County unfolds. Here you can still find miles of open space, expansive ranches and farms, many historical sites and displays, along with a wealth of outdoor recreation activities.

Martin Slough
New construction on the Martin Slough Multimodal Trail project consists of approximately 1.86 miles, 10-Ft wide paved path connecting Jake’s Wetlands in Minden to the Gilman Ponds in Gardnerville. The path will also connect to Minden’s new fishing pond located south of Buckeye Road. The trail provides a convenient pedestrian connection which is just off the main thoroughfare of US 395. Perfect for both residents and tourists that would like to take the “back door” to Minden and Gardnerville’s many shops, restaurants, lodgings, and other businesses.  To view a map of the project or to receive project updates click here.
