Just a fun place to hang out, take a kiyak, paddleboard SUP or just swim and there is more than one way to get in the water, "enter the park" or go to the "Sac State Aquatic Center" and if you like there are bike trails also.

We’ve been several times to the performances at Sutter Street Theatre... We always come away very impressed with the entertainment they provide. The theatre is small (advance tickets are advised) and the seating is not luxurious, but remember you’re in Old Town Folsom, so it’s all part of the experience!! At intermission, you can purchase their refreshments, or, walk down the street to the Snooks candy shop for yummy caramel corn or a hand-dipped ice cream cone!! And, of course, there’s numerous restaurant choices for a meal before or after the show all a walkable distance from the theatre. Ticket prices are reasonable and there’s usually choices of shows to appeal to families or adults. A great place to go for a matinee or an evening!!

While I miss the old art shop that Folsom prison inmates ran, this museum is pretty awesome. My out-of-town family loves it and I always notice something new when I go!

Beal’s Point is an area at Folsom Lake with a campground and a day use area. We have only used the day use area. There is a nice grassy area with covered picnic tables, BBQ grills and restrooms, as well as a nice beach area with lifeguards. It’s a perfect place for families to spend the day swimming and having a BBQ. There is a designated area for swimming and kayaking that is safe, because there are also other areas of Folsom Lake that allow boating. There is also a bike trail that leads to Beal’s Point so you can ride your bike as well. It tends to get very crowded on weekends between Memorial Day and Labor Day, because this is a popular place to spend a summer day if you live in the Sacramento area, so get there early if you go on a weekend. On weekdays, you can pretty much find parking at any time. Overall a nice place to visit and a nice way to beat the heat.
