The Promontory is a peaceful gated community near Folsom Lake
A master-planned gated community in El Dorado Hills, The Promontory offers a quiet suburban lifestyle close to the shores of Folsom Lake. “In the evenings, a breeze drifts in from the lake, and you have serene water views and skies painted in rainbow colors at sunset,” says local real estate agent Kelli Griggs, founder of Navigate Realty, a top-ranked boutique brokerage in El Dorado County. With trails near the water and several well-maintained neighborhood parks, outdoor activities play a big role in the community. Top-rated schools also attract young families.

Several community parks with trails near the lakefront
Tree-lined walking trails run through the community. Many are accessible from Promontory Community Park, the main green space with playgrounds, a summer splash pad and tennis courts. Kalithea Park also has large grass fields and a playground, plus views of Folsom Lake in the distance. Outside the gated community, nature reserves and state parks sit along the Folsom Lake waterfront, a major draw for outdoor enthusiasts. “Many residents keep private boat docks on Folsom Lake, and there's direct access to hundreds of miles of hiking and mountain biking trails,” Griggs says. “And with Lake Tahoe close enough for a day trip, you can ski in the morning and be home for dinner."
Nearby residents walk around Kalithea Park and stop for the view.
