Genoa, Nevada Overview
Genoa began attracting settlers once John Reese built a trading post in the region during the summer of 1851. Due to Reese’s and his group’s relation to the Mormon Church, this became known as the Mormon Station as travelers of the Overland Emigrant Trail passed through. Orson Hyde of the Mormon church arrived at Mormon Station in 1855 to establish a government and develop the town, renaming it Genoa after Christopher Columbus’ birthplace of Genoa, Italy.
Following a fire in 1910, many business owners relocated to nearby Gardnerville and Minden after two blocks of the business district, homes, the station, fort, and hotel burned. In 1919, the town held its first Genoa Candy Dance to raise money for street lights. The event continues today, alongside Genoa’s other historical sites. The Genoa Courthouse Museum rests on the west side of Main Street. On the eastern side is Mormon Station State Historic Park, and the Hanging Tree of Genoa stands a half-mile away on Genoa Lane.
Genoa is less than an hour from Reno and Sparks, only seven miles northwest of Minden and Gardnerville. The Sierra Nevada Mountain’s separate Genoa and the shores of Lake Tahoe by only 23 miles. The Douglas County School District serves students through Jacks Valley Elementary School, Minden Elementary School, Carson Valley Middle School, and Douglas High School.
Holiday Inn Club Vacations David Walley’s Resort continues to attract guests with its natural hot springs as they have since 1862. Genoa Lakes Golf Club has two courses located in the Carson Valley. The Ranch Course and the Lakes Course are only 2 miles from one another, one with lake and mountain views, the other with desert landscapes.
