Gold Point Volunteer Fire Department

Gold Point, Nevada, is a historic ghost town that evolved from a mining camp established in 1868, originally known as Lime Point. Renamed after the discovery of gold, the town features numerous well-preserved buildings over a century old, including the original post office and a former state senator's home, now serving as a museum.

Despite its ghost town status, Gold Point remains a vibrant community with a small population and ongoing restoration efforts by residents. Visitors can explore the remnants of old mining camps, enjoy local wildlife, and participate in annual events like the Memorial Day Chili Cook-Off, showcasing the town's rich history and friendly atmosphere.
