Golf in Yerington

Yerington is the seat of Lyon County in the Walker River valley, a small agricultural city surrounded by the irrigated Mason Valley where the Walker River provides water for farms that have operated since the nineteenth century. Copper mining has also shaped the local economy, particularly the Anaconda Copper mine on the town's edge. Yerington sits at roughly 4,400 feet, far enough from the Reno-Sparks metro that it maintains a genuinely small-town character. Hunewills Mason Valley Country Club at par 72 across 18 holes serves the community without a current website, reflecting the club's tight relationship with a local membership rather than an orientation toward outside visitors.
