Folsom city parks are closed from dusk (one-half hour after sunset) to 5:00 AM unless a specific facility is rented or permitted for evening use. Folsom Lake State Recreation Area, run by California State Parks, has its own posted hours — generally closing at sunset.
Folsom Municipal Code §12.12 closes all city-owned parks from one-half hour after sunset until 5:00 AM daily, except where specific lighted athletic facilities or rental venues are permitted for extended use. Park ranger and police enforcement cite trespassers under FMC §12.12 and Penal Code §602. Folsom Lake State Recreation Area (Folsom Lake SRA), which includes Beals Point, Granite Bay, Folsom Point, and the Folsom Lake shoreline, is a separate California State Parks jurisdiction. Its posted hours vary seasonally — generally gates open 7:00 AM and close at sunset; overnight camping is permitted only in designated campgrounds (Beals Point, Peninsula) with a reservation. The Folsom Powerhouse State Historic Park also follows State Parks hours. Overnight fishing access requires a specific late-night permit where available.
