    Scheels is a Reno staple if you are into the outdoors, but surprisingly has an intense selection of more then that. My favorite part about here is the Lego section.... Biggest in Reno by far. All of the employees here are incredibly friendly and helpful, must be a nice work environment, and you can't forget the icing on the cake of military discount off EVERYTHING!!!! For the size of this store, maybe the most shocking part is the prices, not only is nothing hiked up, most of the time stuff here is considerably cheaper then other places in Reno. LOVE IT!

    It's not often a store also provides a bit of an experience. Scheels is a vast store. It's got almost anything you can imagine related to outdoor activities and sporting goods. It's so big I'm not sure I've ever even been through the whole thing. Upon entering on either side they have big fish tanks that our kids love looking at, and then of course they have the massive Ferris wheel. The cost is $1 per rider which is more than fair, but in my experience they will often just give you the tokens to ride for free. The store itself is a bit pricey. But there's a variety here that you won't get many other places. So you're almost certain to find something.

    Best outdoor store in town! We love going here for family outings and grabbing a sweet treat from their cafe while we shop. I love that they have "just ingredients" in store as I usually have to order online. The customer service is always great and everybody is always so kind.

    Easy 5 stars. Highly recommended. Scheels in Sparks is an awesome place, especially for families. It's a huge sports shop located at Legends and there's an incredible amount of stuff to see and shop for. Whether you're into outdoor gear, sports equipment, apparel, or just browsing, there are so many options that it's hard not to find something you like. What really makes it stand out is how much there is to look at even if you're not buying anything. It's a great place to walk around with the family, check things out, and spend some time together. Clean, well organized, and packed with quality sporting goods. Definitely one of the best retail spots in the area.

    The store was clean and orderly. They have a wide variety of sports team apparel. Also, a plethora of firearms, ammo, holsters, etc, for hunters and Law Enforcement Officers alike. They also have an abundance of gym workout gear. There is so much more too much to mention. This is a great place for locals.

    I remembered when you opened in September of 2008. Can you believe it has been 16+ years already?!?! We were all impressed with your location, but at the time, I felt the service and/or prices were not a good fit for me. But it was a great place for me to "window shop" while my wife did all the real shopping in the mall. Quality/Quantity - We are loyal seasonal customers. Good selection at regular priced items. If lucky, we buy at the end of the season, or last year's season sale items. Many departments to choose from with a focus on sporting goods. Bought some ski boots, skis, ski wear. etc. Atmosphere - They are employee owned, COOP. The culture and atmosphere seemed very positive. Service - They had a GREAT customer service program! I was so impressed. They offered bike repairs, skate sharpening, racquet stringing, ski and snowboard waxing, etc. There were two 16,000 gallon aquariums and a 65-foot Ferris wheel inside the store for customers to ride. Ginna's Café™. Cut and pasted: "Every product purchased at SCHEELS is guaranteed satisfaction or your money back. You don't take chances at SCHEELS." Price - Normal prices, it would probably be cheaper if you bought elsewhere. But for the service and selection, it is worth the prices. Owner Suggestion - Congrats on all your successes since 1902 with 34 locations and a 123 year old company! 2008 - Sparks location holds the world record of largest sports store, 295k square feet. 2020 - New world record of largest sports store 331k square feet. 2024 - Congrats to the great, great grandson of the founder finally retiring in 2024.

    Indoor Ferris wheel

    A huge two level sporting goods store with a indoor Ferris wheel. It's a $1.00 a ride. Also an indoor cafe. There are two opposing entrances. Like anywhere else you should know your prices. Hubby likes the fishing section. I just like to wander through the clothing apparel and the home goods area. Great friendly staff. Everyone gives you a greeting and asks if you need assistance. This is a definite stop when in the Reno area. Located at the Legends shopping outlets.

    A good comparison would be a pro bass shop- filled with nearly any gear you need for: kayaking, fishing, hunting, swimming, and camping! All contained just outside of an big shopping outlet next to a beautiful lake park. It was a nice walk around the lake (which I heard was man made) to get to the outlet. It was bustling and though we walked there, thier parking lot was huge and can account for many cars. Plus points for having those real arcade shooting target games in the hunting section! Very fitting and fun for the kids and us! Though we aren't outdoorsy people by any means, it was still cool to look around and the large displays of taxidermy and the huge center ferris wheel. A very impressive store overall, would come again if I ever find myself in the area. Stop by, you can look and gander all you'd like, and even find a neat thing or two, especially if you need gear for any outdoor occasion!

    Ferris wheel
    Mel J.

    We visited during Thanksgiving break. The whole shopping center was very crowded so it was hard to find a parking spot. The store itself was huge with ferris wheel inside! There was outdoor equipment, clothing, kids toys, home decor, and lots of other things. There was a play area for the kids on the first floor and shooting game on the second floor. It was fun to browse around.

    I needed to make a last minute trip to pickup some performance underwear before I went out of town. There was a large selection to choose from. I was able to quickly find what I needed. I also had to pick up a new Meat Church seasoning, I can't wait to try it!

    Stopped by for another visit and Oscar was very helpful, patient and informative ! He took his time explaining different products and features ! We sincerely appreciate his time and efforts !

    Shooting Game Area

    This is such a fun outdoor shop to visit. There is everything you need for sports, outdoor activities, clothing, furniture, and more here. Aside from the typical store, there is also a Ferris wheel ($1 per ride), a mini café with amazing roasted nuts, an aquarium located by both entrances, a mini bowling alley, a shooting game area, and a candy shop. All the activities they offered were also extremely affordable. You can definitely spend a couple of hours just browsing around and doing the different activities they have to offer. All the staff were super friendly and helpful too! The bathroom was also surprisingly clean.

    We had the best shopping experience at Scheels on Sunday. My husband and I were shopping for Golf shoes and Austin really went out of his way to take care of us. It was a busy day too. I always appreciate good customer service!! As far as the value and selection. Golf shoes can be pricey, but there was a nice selection. I didn't get my first choice since my size wasn't available, but ended up getting even better ones. In the end, I can say I love, love, love my new Golf shoes.

I payed 12 per person for me and my girl on GolfNow about 30 after everything. You'd think 'Good Deal!'... Started great, nice staff, cheap tee time, with a cart! Nice!... No... The smell was terrible the entire time. It's all wet, soggy, smelly "like a port-a-potty" my girlfriend said with a cringe. Luckily I have footjoys, not one drop hit my socks. But anyway, this place was stankin. Next... Water. Every hole may as well be an island because you're gona lose a dozen balls at least. And I'm not the worst player. If your gona play here, don't bring your Pro V1's Tiger. They're no good here. And last but not least, bugs! There were bugs all over the place. But the mosquitoes were the worst of them. I just remember my girlfriend shrieking because they were all over her, then I look down to see a few on my legs. A few okay. But there were dozens of these blood. Suckers all over us. This was on the 11th hole. And that's when we finally turned around and hit the road. Like I said, hit your favorite par 3 instead driving out if your way for a "deal". Worst course I've played in a while.

Course has seven of the original front, nine holes and two from the back nine. It is a very hilly course, and the gas golf carts were able to handle the hills quite well. The course was in great shape, and they have concrete cart paths throughout. One of the best things about playing this course is the view you get of the Valley below and all the surrounding mountains. I enjoyed playing the course. It is well laid out and even though there are a lot of houses around the course they never presented any problem. I would like to see more distance markers. None of our GPS devices were able to find the course so we were always wondering how far out we were. There is also a driving range available which has toptracer which allows the player to track distance, height and ball speed.
