Lying just a 45-minute drive south of Minden and Gardnerville along Highway 395, Topaz Lake is nestled against the breathtaking backdrop of the eastern Sierra Nevada Mountain range. A haven for outdoor enthusiasts, this scenic reservoir offers some of the area’s best opportunities for boating, fishing, camping, and wildlife spotting, along with a touch of nightlife and gaming at the casino next door for those looking to unwind.
Straddling the Nevada-California border, approximately 38 miles from Gardnerville, Topaz Lake draws adventurers from across the Eastern Sierra. The reservoir stretches 3.5 miles in length and 1.5 miles in width and was formed in the 1920s through a diversion of the West Walker River.
Topaz Lake is well known for its excellent fishing, particularly for its bass and various trout species. Anglers can access the water from the Topaz Marina, which is conveniently located near the campgrounds and boat launch. The Nevada Department of Wildlife regularly stocks the lake with rainbow, brown, bowcutt, and occasionally tiger trout. With a depth of up to 92 feet, it’s an ideal spot for those equipped with depth finders, though shoreline anglers also do well.
Beyond fishing, the lake supports a variety of water sports including kayaking, jet skiing, and water skiing. Boaters typically share the space respectfully with anglers. Both Nevada and California fishing licenses are valid on the lake, and visitors can purchase a Nevada fishing license right on-site at either the adjacent Topaz lodge or inside the convenience store.
