Things To Do
Old Sacramento
Old Sac is a classic tourist attraction that holds a lot of interest for locals, too! From Evangeline's costume shop to the crab shack on the water, this historic setting will bring you lots to explore in a small footprint. Great for strolling around and window shopping!
California State Capitol Museum
Though it doubles as Spencer's day-to-day workspace, the State Capitol building is home to an incredible museum that displays original government history! You can walk through the colonial halls and make your way onto the upper deck of the senate and assembly floors to observe real-time legislation in the works.
Crocker Art Museum
Founded over 100 years ago, this local gem is known as one of the oldest art museums west of the Mississippi! It holds all kinds of California art that will keep you engaged for hours on end!
Railroad Museum
For our true history nerds, we highly recommend visiting the Railroad Museum. It has a great collection of out-of-service pieces that tell a great story about our local past.
Sac Brew Bike
We absolutely LOVE a good brew bike! The drivers are a hoot when it comes to entertainment (and safety), the bars' discounts are helpful, and the ride through town is worth the workout! Don't worry, it's more for fun than it is for exercise.
American River Trail
This trail is great for riding bikes, but also for walking/jogging! We have spent a lot of time on it in the East Sacramento area, but the trail spans all the way from Old Sacramento to Folsom. The nature walk follows the river and provides a great reprieve from the city's hustle and bustle on whatever stretch of it you take. If you want recommendations, feel free to reach out to us! We also highly recommend the trails in Folsom as well as Placerville/Auburn.
Westfield Galleria Mall
For quality retail shopping, take the 15 minute drive up Highway 80 from Sacramento to Roseville! The Galleria Mall has all the big name brand stores like Pottery Barn, Nordstrom, and Apple amongst their multiple-story structure.
Delta Shores
For those of you staying closer to Elk Grove, the Delta Shores mall provides a great shopping experience! The brand new grounds house all-day entertainment like Regal Cinemas, RC Willey, food joints and more.
Old Sugar Mill
We took our engagement photos here, and have wine tasted from their many selections in visits past! We highly recommend spending an afternoon walking the beautiful grounds and enjoying samplings of different winery offerings.
