5 beautiful lakes near Sacramento for a day trip

Do you live in the Sacramento region, and are looking to save gas and enjoy the beautiful waterways?
We have 5 beautiful lakes near Sacramento, all within a days trip!
Yes, Lake Tahoe is beautiful, but it's a bit far to drive for just the day.
These lakes are not in any particular order, just 5 lakes we enjoy for the day
- Bullards Bar
- Scotts Flat Reservoir
- Rollins Lake Reservoir
- Sly Park at Jenkinson Lake
- Folsom and Lake Natoma
Yes, as the video mentions, there is camping and fishing as well as trails at all of these lakes, but for this video, we concentrate on the day-use areas.
Here are some videos we have done that explain more about the lakes:

    I like it when you use a satellite map to show the journey, so the viewers have a good view how far it is. Lovely place for taking a break out

    Ahh, thank you, Cassie!! We are fortunate to have these options! Funny story, two years ago, a YT friend, from Florida was staying in Sacramento for her work with FEMA. She joined us in our Donner Lake video, as well as other adventures, anyhoo, she mentioned that it was the first time she had ever swam in a lake! I was like, "wait, what!??" She reminded us that you can't swim in lakes in Florida because of alligators!!! I never thought about that!!! Cheers! 🥤

    @@ChooseAdventureCaliforniaStyle Interesting, as my views have gone up. That is typical for me as folks look for Summer things to do. Who knows, in time, you'll get a better representation (we both will), and maybe people reserve hiking and trail walking for Spring and Fall? More family activities take place during the Summer. Huh.
