I too noticed that when I had a location-based reminder that my battery life was noticeably lower. I would imagine that, in order to know that you have arrived at your location, that location services would have to be used quite frequently by the phone. If not constantly.
Even if I'm running Skype in the background or streaming radio, the battery drain is much less than my test of using a location-based reminder.
