McKinley Park

601 Alhambra Blvd
Sacramento, CA 95816

Geoff L. writes: I thought it would be quite fitting on the anniversary of 10 wonderful years of marriage that I write a review of where it all went down.

 It was a…

Fairytale Town

3901 Land Park Dr
Sacramento, CA 95822

Gretchen S. writes: A truly toddler-friendly venue. Built in 1959 yet well-maintained with continued improvements. If you had to pick just one place to go with the five-and-under crowd, this is a good choice. It has all the elements of a park, a zoo, a botanical garden,…

Southside Park

Sacramento, CA 95818

Folsom Zoo Sanctuary

Folsom, CA 95630

Skydance Skydiving

Land Park Lanes

5850 Freeport Blvd
Sacramento, CA 95822

Gretchen S. writes: After coming here several times, it seems like just another bowling alley, though it's a pipsqueak-friendly place to knock down pins! The trick to going here is to come at off-peak times to avoid the crowds and heavy drinkers.

The first time we came…

Sacramento Bicycle Kitchen

2837 36th St
Sacramento, CA 95817

elizabeth c. writes: I am by no means a cyclist.  In fact, I'm rather wobbly on things with wheels, like crashing into things, flying over the front of handlebars wobbly.  However, I was entrusted with my sister's bicycle on a recent trip from Los Angeles to Sacramento.…

Lean On Me

4471 D St
Sacramento, CA 95819

Alisha K. writes: I just discovered Lean On Me's pilates studio and what a find!  It is sort of confusing, because it is a separate gym called "Inside Out', located inside of "Lean On Me".  Inside Out/Lean On Me...whatever it is called...is a great pilates studio.…

Peak Performance Health Club

2795 2nd St
Davis, CA 95616

Helen W. writes: My only regret is that I joined this place so late, as I'll be graduating come summer.  Although the Arc is wonderfully equipped and I was lucky enough to be here when it opened, it is way too full all the time and I don't have time to wait for a…

4150 Temescal St
Fair Oaks, CA 95628

Capitol Park

Capitol Ave & 15th St
Sacramento, CA 95814

Sacramento, CA 95814

Gretchen S. writes: Look! Out on the Sacramento River between Discovery Park and the I Street Bridge! It's a ship; it's a dragonfly; it's a public art display; it's a destination by foot, bike, skates, or car along the riverfront; it's a fun place for kids to play in a…

Davis Double Century

Yolo,Solano, and Napa counties

Do…

1900 Del Paso Rd
Sacramento, CA 95834

Rocknasium

720 Olive Dr
Ste Z
Davis, CA 95616

colin h. writes: Went here the other day, good alternative to the ARC. They charge a $10 fee for a belaying lesson, which in my opinion is not worth it. It took all of 5 minutes, and they didn't even tell us to check our partner's knots/equipment before we started…
