Our Location:
Let’s face it, location matters. We are based in Sacramento, California just 5 minutes from the heart of a revitalized and growing Downtown. Known as the City of Trees and California’s state capital, Sacramento is a rising urban area with a vibrant dining and entertainment scene, access to popular Northern California destinations, and a cost of living that’s half the rate of the Bay Area.
As the nation’s Farm-to-Fork (Farm-to-Table) capital, Sacramento has access to 1.5 million acres of farms that grow more than 120 types of crops, which has produced an array of fantastic restaurants throughout the city with a level of fresh cuisine that’s unrivaled. The Sacramento area is also home to over 40 craft breweries and is centrally located to over eight wine regions, including Amador County, Lodi, and Napa Valley.
Sacramento’s prime location also means you’re less than 2 hours away from world-class skiing in Lake Tahoe or a night out in San Francisco. However, between the city’s burgeoning downtown area—and the new home for the NBA’s Sacramento Kings—historic sites dating back to Sacramento’s pioneering roots, and friendly, welcoming community, you’ll find plenty of reasons to stay in town.
