Fish gotta swim, golf balls gotta fly, and people gotta live somewhere! Nobody knows this better than the happy go lucky residents living in Rancho Murieta, CA. The surprising thing is—few folks outside the Country Club gates even know it exists. With its 5 gorgeous lakes, 2 extremely affordable championship golf courses, & the spectacular community events, one would think the whole world would know by now.
I can’t tell you how many times I’ve heard, “Why do you live all the way out there?” I just love enlightening the nay Sayers that my former commute years ago from Elk Grove to my kid’s private downtown school took at least 45 sleepy-eyed minutes each morning. All freeway and I still couldn’t cut the time with that dang carpool lane on Hwy 99. Rancho Murieta’s gated community sits right off Jackson Hwy & is a scenic 30min drive & drop right onto Folsom Blvd to downtown no sweat—no freeway stress! Life is gooood…
So I ask myself, “Why don’t more people buy homes in Rancho Murieta?” Could it be they don’t like…… deer frolicking the streets, green rolling grassy hills steaming with the sunrise, dining & dancing a mere stroll or golf cart zoom away, outdoor lakeside starlit summer concert nights, spectacular fireworks & fun on July 4th & August Summerfest, & neighborhood parades proudly performed by kiddo golf cart drivers in their crafted chariots? Or perhaps it’s the affordability factor? After all, single family homes are in the low $300K’s & town homes even lower. Nope that’s not it…I think it’s just the best kept secret around!
