Camp Pollock

Park/Garden

The spectacular Camp Pollock property is located along the north bank Lower American River, just upstream from the confluence of the Sacramento River and the American River, near downtown Sacramento, CA. Previously run by the Boy Scouts of America since the early 1920’s, Camp Pollock’s courtyard, lodge and GROUP camp sites are available for rent. The Sacramento Valley Conservancy, a 501c3 non-profit land trust organization, facilitated the acquisition of Camp Pollock by the State Lands Commission in January 2013 and is managing the site in accordance with the American River Parkway Plan.

Folsom Lake State Recreation Area

Historic Building/Landmark ; Park/Garden

Located at the base of the Sierra foothills, the lake and recreation area offers opportunities for hiking, biking, running, camping, picnicking, horseback riding, water-skiing, and boating. Fishing offers trout, catfish, big and small mouth bass, or perch. Visitors can also see the Folsom Powerhouse (once called "the greatest operative electrical plant on the American continent"), which from 1885 to 1952 produced 11,000 volts of electricity for Sacramento residents. For cyclists, there is a 32-mile long bicycle path that connects Folsom Lake with many Sacramento County parks before reaching Old Sacramento. The park also includes Lake Natoma, downstream from Folsom Lake, which is popular for crew races, sailing, kayaking and other aquatic sports.
