Founded in 1898, both gold and silver were mined there. Several hundred residents are spread over a bit more than 13 square miles. Searchlight is home to Nevada Historical Marker 116, Searchlight Historic Museum & Historic Mining Park, and without a doubt the ultimate Chicken Fried Steak at the Searchlight Nugget Casino on Hwy. 95.
