Sheri's Ranch
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Sheri's Ranch is a legal brothel, resort and spa in Pahrump, Nevada. Unlike many other brothels in the state, it styles itself like a "resort" with upscale rooms and furnishings, tennis courts, a spa and outdoor swimming pool. Also on premises is a sports bar.
Lora Shaner, a former madam of the brothel, wrote a book about her experiences there: Madam: Chronicles of a Nevada Cathouse (1999, ISBN 0929712579), later reissued and extended as Madam: Inside a Nevada Brothel (2001, ISBN 0759603677)[1].
Recently, Sheri's Ranch has sought local zoning changes in Pahrump in order to build a 700-plus residential subdivision on its 330 acres known as Mountain Shadows Resort.
