Family Folsom Weekend

We had a wonderful stay here! My husband and I stayed here with my parents and there was plenty of space for the 4 of us and everything you need. The place is a great location to explore Folsom with plenty of things to do nearby. We were walking distance to breakfast/dinner every day. We were able to host a happy hour with the rest of our family one night and enjoy the rooftop sunset views. We would love to stay here again!

Everything was great. We watched 4 sunsets on the rooftop patio during the week and took advantage of the close proximity to some great restaurants. Parking can be challenging if it is Friday or Saturday night but that's because the location is so fantastic.

Outstanding Location!

It is located in a great downtown location. Walking distance to all restaurants and night life. Front balcony and rooftop is great for enjoying your coffee in the morning and a evening cocktail as you watch the people mingling downtown. If you have the opportunity to stay at this location don’t pass it up!

My name is Doug, I'm a local commercial real estate developer, and past Fireman, Paramedic, and current Reserve Police Officer. My passion is restoring and remodeling Historic Homes. I've lived in Folsom all my life. I personally manage all my commercial and residential properties to ensure my guests and renters are properly taken care of. I've been a vacation rental host for over 8 years, and was one the first to create a vacation rental in Historic Folsom with what is known as the Figueroa House. I currently have two amazing vacation rentals, both on the main street (Sutter Street) in Historic Folsom. I've been actively involved in the placement of tenants, restaurants, and entertainment venues in Old Folsom. Sutter Street Steakhouse, Fabria Bakery, More then Olives, Hacienda, The smart Axe, Ruby's Books, Sutter Street Theater, and BrainyZoo, Just to name a few. I designed and developed the Sutter Street Steakhouse Building , Fire and Rain Building (Penthouse Location) , and restored many others. I work hard to provide something top notch for my guests.

Why they chose this property

You have many choices in Folsom, especially the historic district, so make the right choice for a memorable stay. Each of my properties are truly downtown and steps away from Lake Natoma. No need to walk blocks to all the action, you're in it! Whether it be the Penthouse with high end luxury, rooftop deck, and large bedrooms, or the Craftsman Home with updated amenities, new pool house option, a double lot, amazing back yard, custom pool and private vacation oasis, either property will not disappoint.
