Minden

Minden

Conveniently located in the Carson Valley, Minden, Nevada has a population of 3,381. Minden is unique among small towns across the United States. It was mapped and defined on the ground before a building was ever built. Now that’s a master plan.

Today, many people relocate to Minden to be near stunning Lake Tahoe, and to enjoy the blend of quaint streets and turn-of-the-century homes in communities like:

Westwood – An older, established neighborhood with fully matured landscaping close to schools, shopping, entertainment, and restaurants.  You will find a variety of homes in this area, including custom-built single family homes and low maintenance patio homes.

La Costa – A retirement community located at the northern end of Minden that is being developed like a Mediterranean village, with paseos, parks, ponds, markets and evening venues.

Winhaven – This subdivision is centrally located in the heart of Minden, and has breathtaking views of the Sierras. Winhaven is a popular neighborhood, featuring lovely landscaped single-family homes as well as easy maintenance patio homes.

Mackland- An upscale subdivision located two blocks from downtown Minden, where alfalfa fields and pastureland once thrived in the shadow of Job’s Peak.

In the past ten years, Minden has also added northern communities to the county, including:

Wildhorse – This quaint community is nestled between Johnson Lane and Stephanie Lane. It features a great family community with a park and walking area.

Saratoga Springs – A robust community with a mix of young families and retired couples. This community features several miles of walking paths, a community park, and larger lots.

Skyline – Located off Johnson Lane and East Valley Road, this higher altitude Eastern Edge community features great views, custom luxury homes, and large custom landscaped lots.

Sun Ridge– A gated golf community on the northern edge of Douglas County, this small community of homes is all about the golf and eastern views of the Pinenut range and Carson River, with small lots, custom homes, and gated community appeal.

Minden features one of the highest per-capita income statistics for households in the state of Nevada.

Parks and Recreation

The Minden Park is a popular community gathering place in the center of Minden. The Carson Valley Inn & Casino recently installed an outdoor amphitheater in 2014 and are hosting great outdoor concerts in the summer. The Community Swim Center features Olympic-sized indoor and outdoor pools along with a set of indoor slides and springboard diving platforms. There are several community parks within the individual living communities in Minden.

Residents of Minden enjoy close proximity to Douglas High School, hiking trails, Lake Tahoe, biking, skiing, fishing, camping and more. Minden also has a large population of RV owners. Trails in the area include the Bently Kirman Trail, The Fay Luther Trail, The Genoa Trail,  and the new Clear Creek trail.

Schools

Minden is home to the Douglas Tigers, the only public high school in Douglas County. The Tigers have a rich tradition of academic and athletic success. Friday Night Football at Douglas High School is one of the most amazing events in America to watch high school football.2014-09-11 19.26.42
