The Harris Center is an incredible facility! The design, acoustics, and staff are amazing. Parking is easy and plentiful. Having attended musicals, plays, and concerts, the facility and performances are top tier.

Studio Movie Grill

Reviewed By JEShanks61 - Vass, North Carolina

Had time to kill before a flight so thought I would do lunch and a movie. The concept rocks - but like most things it will be the people that ruin it. Didn’t open the theater on time. I was second person in, but because my seat was in the last row I was the last to be asked for my order and oh by the way the kitchen is behind 35-40 minutes. When I expressed my concern the staff then treated me like I was the problem. The last straw was when they guy delivered my popcorn and just plopped it on the table and walked away. I won’t be back.

The Trove has been an institution in Roseville for a number of years, and it's always an interesting place to wander around. It doesn't have exclusively true antiques any more, it's more collectibles, and much of what's offered appears to have been rounded up at yard sales. That doesn't mean it's junk, but the vast majority of what's on offer is not rare or really old. The items that I personally collect (American Art Pottery and various US produced glass) are difficult to find here anymore, and if they do appear they're usually overpriced by quite a bit. I sure wouldn't say this is a bargain hunter's paradise, but there are some unusual things including in the outdoor area where good buys can be found on old lawn furniture and larger items like fence gates and trellis and lawn furniture made of metal. Our last purchase here was a white metal lawn chair that weighs about 100 lbs. and still graces the entry patio at our home. If you want to kill a little time this is a good place to do it.

Fun with Henry the bear was an excellent outing by having our young grandkids to enjoy with.
Unfortunately the zoo was in a repair condition and we didn’t get to see all of the animals however the reduced rate made it very bearable .

Will certainly return in the future

Boarding on the Lake

Reviewed By Dmmay33 - Newcastle, California

For those who love horseback riding Boarding-on-the-Lake offer a beautiful 2 hour ride through wooded paths gradually climbing up a small mountain offering gorgeous views of Folsom Lake followed by a short trek across the beach, culminating in a short break for the horses as they wade just far enough into the lake to cool their hooves and grab a refreshing drink of the crystal clear water. Our guide was a genuine horse lover, a historian of local culture and offered multiple opportunities for pictures, even taking many himself to ensure that every rider had great souvenirs to take home! He also kept safety in the forefront as he evaluated each rider's ability before matching them to their perfect steed. This was definitely THE place for a pleasant and enjoyable trail ride!

Sutter St.

This historical area is a pleasant spot to spend the day.

Reviewed By Vince F - Folsom, California

I live here in Folsom and I visit the "Old Town" area, along Sutter street several times a month. There is always something new and exciting to do. They have quite a few interesting shops, great dining, group activities, family events and City sponsored festivals. There is ample parking one block to the north, and a relatively new parking garage near the train turn-table. My favorites are the craft fairs, the farmers markets, and the frequent gathering of friends at eating and drinking places along the street.
