Your comments

✎ Folsom Lake is fed from snowmelt water coming down the North and South forks of the American River. The water quality is excellent, and I've never seen or heard of problems with toxic algae blooms. There are several swimming areas along the shoreline: at Brown's Ravine Marina, Granite Bay, Beale's Point, Hobie Cove, Dike 8, and at access points up the North and South forks of the river. There are no lifeguards at any of these swimming areas, although the lake is patrolled on the weekends and maybe on weekdays as well in mid-summer, between May 1st and the end of September, by the State Park rangers and Sheriff's Department Marine units from Placer and El Dorado Counties. The popular beaches and boat launch ramps can get crowded on summer weekend afternoons, especially the three Holiday weekends. Water activities include fishing, both from shore or from boats, water skiing and wake boarding, jet skiing, sailing, and on the occasional windy days, kite boarding. ...More
