The Folsom Lake Yacht Club boat ramp provides access to Folsom Lake, a popular destination for kayakers, canoeists, and small boaters in the Sacramento region. Located within the Folsom Lake State Recreation Area, this ramp is situated above the Brown's Ravine Boat Ramp and is primarily used by the local sailing club for events and activities.
Folsom Lake is a large reservoir with a surface area of over 11,000 acres when full. It offers ample opportunities for recreational boating, with calm, sheltered coves as well as more open expanses suitable for sailing and motorized activities. Paddlers can explore the lake's many inlets and tributaries, while power boaters and sailors can take advantage of the lake's size and favorable winds.
It's important to note that water levels at Folsom Lake can fluctuate significantly, so it's recommended to contact the Folsom Lake State Recreation Area directly to check on the current conditions and accessibility of the boat ramp before planning your visit. Boaters should also be aware of their vessel's draft and plan accordingly, as the ramp may become unusable when the lake level is low.
