We found no lodging requirement for this park. National Championship Sports lists Idlewild Park as a site for its Ultimate Baseball World Series (8U–19U, Reno, Sparks and Carson City, July 14–18, 2027), and its event page states no hotel rule. The City of Reno also rents Field #3 for Reno Sports Complex tournaments, which set their own rules. Check your own event page before you book.
