Campgrounds near Folsom, California
Folsom sits about 25 miles east of Sacramento at the edge of the Sierra Nevada foothills, and most camping in the area centers on Folsom Lake State Recreation Area, which offers open grasslands, rolling hills, and shoreline trails that draw boaters, equestrians, cyclists, and hikers. The two state park campgrounds closest to town are Beals Point - Folsom Lake State Recreational Area and Peninsula - Folsom Lake State Recreational Area. Beals Point is a developed campground that is open year round and operates on reservations, while Peninsula is a more remote campground that can be subject to winter or road closures.
RV renters who want a private-park experience instead of a state park will find Ascension Ranch, Loomis RV Park, and Mark J RV Park within a short drive of central Folsom. These properties typically offer hookups and longer-stay options that the state campgrounds do not. Folsom itself works well as a base because the lake, the American River bike trail, Old Town Folsom, and grocery and supply runs are all within a few minutes of the major campgrounds.
Things to do near Folsom
Folsom Lake is open to all kinds of boating from jet skis and standup paddleboards to pontoon boats and waterskiing, Folsom Lake Marina provides rentals and slips, launch ramps are located around the lake, and fishing is productive for trout, catfish, largemouth and smallmouth bass. Beals Point - Folsom Lake State Recreational Area features a snack bar, a beach area with lifeguards during peak season, and paved trails for hiking and biking. The Jedediah Smith Memorial Trail runs along the American River from the lake into Sacramento and is fully paved, which makes it suitable for kids on bikes. Lake Natoma, immediately downstream of Folsom Dam, is calmer water that suits kayaks and paddleboards. Old Town Folsom adds a railroad museum, restaurants, and a walkable historic district when families want a day off the water.

We had a great experience renting this RV! The vehicle was clean, nicely maintained, and exactly as described. Russell was friendly, responsive, and made the pickup and drop-off process smooth and easy. We accidentally left a couple items in the RV and Russell was kind enough to mail them back to us promptly. The RV was reliable, and had everything we needed for a comfortable trip. We would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a hassle-free RV rental experience. Sincerely, GA
Gustavo A. - Jun 2026
Our RV experience was fantastic. The RV that we rented from Russell was a great RV, very new feeling, clean, and functional for everything we needed it for. This was our first RV experience and we truly loved it. Russell and his team were responsive when needed and everything went very smoothly when we picked up and dropped off the RV. They were very informative and when we had questions along our travel they were quick to respond to help out. Thanks Russell and thanks to your team. Was a wonderful experience, we definitely will go with you in the future!

How to book campgrounds near Folsom
Reservations for Beals Point - Folsom Lake State Recreational Area are made through the California State Parks reservation system, ReserveCalifornia, either online or by phone. The same system handles Peninsula - Folsom Lake State Recreational Area during its reservation season. Reservations can be booked up to six months in advance on a rolling window, with new inventory opening each day at 8 AM Pacific. Summer weekends and holidays at Beals Point routinely sell out quickly after the window opens, so renters should set a reminder and be ready at exactly 8 AM. Private parks in the area, including Ascension Ranch, Loomis RV Park, and Mark J RV Park, are booked directly with each property and tend to have more flexible cancellation rules than the state system.
What to expect
Beals Point - Folsom Lake State Recreational Area has 69 family campsites that accommodate tents, trailers, and motor homes up to 31 feet long, full hookups are provided in the RV loop (sites 50-69), and a sanitation dump station is available. The campground also offers drinking water, restrooms with flush toilets, hot showers, a campfire center, and a day-use picnic area. Road noise from nearby roadways reaches some sites, so renters sensitive to noise should check site numbers before booking. Pets are allowed but must be kept on a 6-foot maximum leash and never left unattended. Check-out is noon and check-in is 2 PM. Cell service is generally reliable across the recreation area.
