It was a bit strange today having only one person swimming in the giant pool. It was overcast and rainy, Saturday evening... I guess I was the only one that needed to do laps but, when you're face down in the water, you don't really see anyone else or talk to anyone else. This is my favorite swimming/exercise spot . Can't say enough about it. Don't forget, the membership here also allows you to go to the other Reno area pools. Including Idlewild, north Northwest and Mount Evelyn or Evelyn Mount whatever it is. Lol

Time to check in on the pool 18 months in. I am happy to report that the facility is being…read moremaintained really well and it still has that new pool smell. Ok, maybe it is a clean pool smell. The building, locker rooms, seating areas, parking lot and outdoor areas look good. If you haven't been and you are thinking it is just another community pool like Alf Sorrenson or Idelwild, it is not. This is a jewel in the Parks & Rec. Department's offerings. This facility gets bonus points for being fully self sustainable with the hot springs and solar. The rates are reasonable with discounts on Wednesday evening and Sunday. RecConnect passes start at $12 per month.

They just increase their minimum to 3 days/week, 4 hours/visit. AND, when we asked for more time with our caregiver, they said they couldn't do it. We're now left without a solution. Thanks for nothing, Home Instead. Also, they told me about the cancellation via email. Isn't that like breaking up via text??? So upset and disappointed.

This Review is for the Bacon, Bourbon & Beer Event…read more Thank you Mike T from Yelp, the Care Chest organization, and to all the vendors & volunteers that made this such a GREAT event. Duplicate review to be posted at Care Chest & Bartley Ranch. Quality/Quantity - I have been to most of the breweries that attended. But it was GREAT to discover so many food businesses. I will be sure to visit them after this event. Also, I discovered so many local spirits and bourbons. Look forward to creating a "local" bar at the house. Atmosphere - Fun event that supports a good cause. So many food, bacon, bourbon, and beer booths. I ate and drank too much!! It was also good to see the regular Yelp attendees. William C (& Grant), we are attending all the same events, should we consider carpooling, LOL?! Some of the activities are: Silent auction, Beer Stein holding (I failed miserably! Might have been drunk by 4pm already...). Plenty of tables and chairs throughout and a huge shaded area near the DJ. Service - Amazing, from the Care Chest Team that greeted us during check in to all the vendors that supported this event. I met and spoke with so many of the founders of businesses here. So impressed that founders of good size companies can take the time to come and support! Thank you again! Price - Yelp invitation, don't forget to tip & donate! Owner Suggestion - Bartley Ranch - Love visiting and hanging out with all the horse owners here. Care Chest - Congrats on all your success since 1990, what a great organization.

This is a review for Bacon, Bourbon, and Brews. I am a big supporter of CareChest, who have helped…read moremy son and I become more accesible and independent here in Reno. I encourage you to support these folks, as personally, they helped us make one of our bathrooms wheelchair friendly. Since I am not getting any younger, I knew that it would be more difficult to assist my son with is personal hygiene needs. Since I myself have some back issues, lifting him into a tub would soon be crossed off of my list. Now I have a roll in shower with grab bars. My son has a shower chair. And I owe it to CareChest through grants and donations from supporters. Great event with foods from Chihuahuas, Fig Tree Catering. Distilled brews from Frey Ranch, The Depot, and many more! Jeff Martinez from Channel 2 News did a great job at MCing, and the music was terrific!

When I first moved to the Truckee Meadows in 2008, I wasn't familiar with the Veterans Guest House…read more My introduction to VGH was by my daughter's friend who attended Orvis School of Nursing. As a military brat, this organization holds a special place in my heart. I have donated to this cause for fifteen years, including posting a reminder daily on my Facebook page to vote for VGH to win a large donation from Home Depot years ago. And, yes, they won! Finally, I visited their wonderful facility at their annual open house on December 9, 2023. I am so pleased to see that we are helping our Veterans and their families with lodging while the Veteran receives medical attention at no cost to them! Many companies and other groups provide dinner nightly for those staying there! If you have a minute, you might want to take a quick tour to see how VGH "spends" our donations and I believe you will also be impressed. Please keep in mind that VGH operates solely on the donations of our local community! There are reading areas, a laundry room, TV rooms, and bedrooms from single beds to family-sized all with bathrooms, large open community areas like the kitchen and dining area. Please remember that our Veterans signed a blank check when they served our country and now we can help them!

I'm not a veteran, so I have never used this facility…read more But it's one of my favorite organizations to contribute to. Several times a year I drop off various greeting cards for the guests to use, as well as various dental items. They also accept cash and gift cards to several area stores. Throughout the year VGH has a few fund raisers. October is Boots to Fashion. A fabulous event at a Reno casino ballroom that includes a champagne three course lunch, raffle and auction items and of course a fashion show. Women veterans of all ages and branches donate their time walk the runway and show off the latest trends in women's clothing from local shops. A fabulous event that honors the many women in the military. Why are fund raisers needed ? Because VGH provides US military service veterans and their families a place to stay in Reno while they are receiving medical treatment at the VA Center or other area facilities. The House is like a small hotel with a common area living room and kitchen. It is not associated the Veterans Administration. Guests are suggested a $25 a night donation to help defray costs, but no one is refused for lack of funds. The house, located across the street from the VA Hospital, is a non-profit, and receives no state or federal money for its day to day operations. Huge kudos for everything the VGH does for the veterans. Thank you sir and mam for your service. For more info - veteransguesthouse.org

I recently set-up home care for my mother-in-law and am extremely pleased with Comfort Keepers…read more Kait reviewed costs on the phone before we proceeded with an appointment. Kait set up an appointment with Bob, the owner, to meet with us to discuss our needs and concerns and let us know he would get back to us after working with the scheduler, Heather, to let us know if they could staff the hours that we needed. Bob also reviewed the costs and the company's expectations of us as clients. I have read some of the complaints and feel they are unfounded. Businesses can't survive if they don't protect themselves. Comfort Keepers works very hard to assign and schedule caregivers that can meet the needs of each patient and they deserve respect if and when service needs to be cancelled. I personally worked with each caregiver to make sure they were comfortable with my mother-in-law and that my mother-in-law accepted them in her home. Each and every one of the care givers were well trained, kind, and respectful. The situation was challenging, and they were all wonderful! I have nothing but respect for this company and the people they hire. The care givers told me that they truly love working for Comfort Keepers because they offer excellent training, and they are treated well. Our family has since contracted with Comfort Keepers for another family member.

She was very kind and had a lovely personality. She also gave us a courtesy call to ensure we located the center within the Grand Sierra Resort. What caught our eye was that we had to use one of our senses in each of the five challenges: smell, taste, touch, sight, and hearing. The day before we had gone to an escape room and were looking for more similar experiences. Some of the challenges required the team to be split into teams while other challenges required the entire team to participate. Overall, it was a great time and I highly recommend to take a few family members and friends to enjoy the experience with. They also have a snack bar there and a dart room called the Dart Side next door.
