Welcome to the heart of Silver Country! The discovery of the Comstock silver lode in the mid-19th century transformed Virginia City into a thriving boomtown. Those days have long since passed but this officially-designated National Historic Landscape district retains much of its frontier charm - with many buildings maintaining their 19th-century character. Museums and local mine tours also help to keep the memory of those boomtown days alive for visitors. Virginia City is also closely associated with and celebrates its links to the famous author Mark Twain. Samuel Clemens first used his illustrious pen name while working on a local newspaper here. So whether you wish to get a flavour of a former frontier town or learn more about a true literary great, continue reading to learn about the top Airbnb vacation rentals in Virginia City, Nevada.

We handpicked these listings carefully, considering (wherever possible) Superhost status, recent guest reviews, location, accommodation type, prices, availability of dates, decor, and amenities. The image galleries get refreshed with the latest updates regularly. They were last updated on April 08, 2024.
