The Least Shady Part of Nevada's Famous Brothel, the Shady Lady Ranch

September 14, 2011 at 10:46 AM | by | Comments (0)


Much has been written about the Shady Lady Ranch, one of the most famous of the Nevada brothels and the place that played brief home to the one and only prostidude.

So you can imagine our innocent excitement when we realized that our Vegas-Reno roadtrip would not only pass several brothels, but the very Shady Lady itself.

We have no idea how the girls of the Shady Lady make a living because it is miles out in the middle of nowhere. Beatty itself is about 2 ½ hours northwest of Las Vegas, and the Shady Lady is another 31 miles north of that.

Maybe people come for the view? Because the 95, which runs pretty much parallel to Death Valley at that point (it’s just the other side of the mountains, here) is pretty spectacular.


Come for the ladies (maybe Rio or Veronica?), stay for the view. We fully expect the Shady Lady to start using that tagline any day now.
