This is a terrific post about a little area many folks know very little about and it is such a great place I am thrilled Lisa Wetzel, of Carson City, NV, decided to sare some information about it. Thanks Lisa for writing about Topaz Lake here in Nevada. It is such a lovely little lake to fish, camp and enjoy!
Topaz Lake, In Topaz Nevada, Jewel of the Eastern Sierra. Drivingsouth from Gardnerville, Nevada ... Just 40 minutes from Carson City, Nevada, the first glimpse of Topaz Lake is breathtaking no matter how many times you’ve done it before. With the snow capped Sweetwater Mountains in the background, and framed by the Red Hills and Wild Oat Mountain, the oasis of Topaz Lake stands out beautifully.
Fed by the West Walker River, this man made beauty is bisected by the Nevada/California State Line and was built as a reservoir to control water flow for the farmers irrigating downstream in Smith Valley, Nevada and farther on into Yerington, Nevada and Mason Valley. Its natural setting and look, however, make it look like it was naturally created.Topaz has great fishing (up to 10 pound trout!), boating and jet skiing. The water is much warmer than Lake Tahoe making for pleasant recreation fun. There is a public campground maintained by the Douglas County Parks Department at the north end of the lake, a couple of boat
launch ramps, and areas where you can camp and launch on public land. In addition there are a couple of restaurants, our favorite ... The Topaz Lodge ... and casinos just off the highway that afford spectacular views while you dine, table games, food and beverage, and great water recreation – Rural Nevada at its finest.When it comes to choosing professionals to assist you with your real estate needs ...
