Tule Springs Archaeological Site
The area was home to several Native American visitors in the pre-Columbian period. More recently, it served as a guest ranch for out-of-state residents seeking to "live" in Nevada and gain access to its easy divorce requirements. Several of the ranch's buildings remain, as do a few peacocks.
The springs archeological site was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on April 20, 1979.
