- River Inn is a closed casino resort located alongside the Truckee River in Reno, Nevada. It was built in an area known for its hot spring. Granite Hot Springs operated on the site as early as the 1870s, later becoming Laughton's Hot Springs in 1884. The latter was opened by Sumner Laughton, who later changed the name to Lawton's Hot Springs, reflecting a common misspelling of his surname. The local Yori family owned the resort from 1936 to 1970, and leased it to numerous people during that time. In the 1950s, Lawton's included a restaurant, slot machines, and a cocktail lounge. The property also offered a nine-hole golf course into the 1960s. New leasees renovated and expanded the resort in 1963, renaming it the Holiday Lodge. The expansion included a new motel structure, as well as a casino. In 1970, it was renovated to become the Rodeway Inn and Holiday Spa, part of the Rodeway Inns chain. It was renamed the River Inn two years later. An RV park was added in 1973. The resort later filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy, and was closed on December 15, 1978; it has not reopened since then. Developer George Benny planned to reopen the resort in the early 1980s, and added an A-frame casino structure to the property. In 1984, he was sentenced to 30 years in prison for financial-related crimes. Businessman T.M. Chang later made several failed attempts to renovate and reopen the resort. In 2020, the River Inn was sold to businessman Lawrence McNutt, who planned to make it his personal residence. (en)
