After a day of playing outside, there's nothing better than gathering around a fire to share stories from the day. Whether it's warming up under a blanket with your loved ones, enjoying a sweet cup of cocoa or hot toddy on a winter day, or toasting with a crisp local beer after a day soaking up the sun on the Truckee River, a fire pit is always a great spot to unwind. In Reno Tahoe, we know how to make the most of every hour of the day, and we also know how to round out those adventure-filled days with a variety of fire pits located around the region.
