Peninsula Campground provides access to Folsom Lake via two boat launch ramps located near the campground, making it ideal for boaters and anglers seeking a quieter section of the lake.

The access point is situated on a peninsula between the north and south forks of the American River, approximately 11 miles from Highway 49 via Rattlesnake Bar Road (note: narrow and windy road not suitable for RVs over 24 feet or trailers over 18 feet).

The campground offers 100 campsites with amenities including restrooms, showers, and a dump station, plus nearby hiking on the Oaks Nature Trail.
