Welcome! Elk Grove County Park is where recreation meets high society and
culture. For the sports-minded, the park offers softball, baseball and soccer
fields, as well as horseshoe and volleyball courts and a swim center. For the
hungry, several group picnic areas can be reserved and offer a shady retreat for a great
picnic lunch. And, for the cultured, concerts, events and meetings take place
often on Strauss Island (located in the middle of Elk Grove Park Lake) and in
the Pavilion. Elk Grove County Park offers places to expand the muscles, stomach
and mind alike.
How to Get There
From Highway 99, take the Elk Grove Boulevard exit and head
east. Make a right turn onto Elk Grove/Florin Road. The Park entrance is on the
right, approximately ¾ mile from Elk Grove Boulevard.
