About Empire Ranch Folsom

Empire Ranch is located off of East Natoma St., southeast of Folsom Lake. With dramatic views of Folsom, Empire Ranch sets an example of what a master-planned community should be. Empire Ranch encompasses nearly 1,750 acres of rolling hills and oak trees. Included in this master-planned community that contains more than 3,000 homes are a public 18-hold championship golf course, schools, hiking trails, parks, and shopping. The golf course, which opened on May 11th, 2002, was actually Folsom’s first course in the entire city. Designed by Brad Bell, the course is a great balance between challenge and reward. A novice golfer would not find this golf course overbearingly challenging and an experienced golfer would be pleased with its difficulty.

Empire Ranch appeals to move-up buyers (those families trading up for bigger houses). Currently, homes in Empire Ranch range from the mid $400,000s and can exceed the $800,000 price range. Empire Ranch has nestled away from the major traffic areas but is still within close proximity to Highway 50. As you would imagine, many of the homes have views of the beautiful golf course and the rolling hills of the Folsom and El Dorado Hills area.

With 1,750 acres of a master-planned community, Empire Ranch attracts Folsom residents from all over the city with its parks, recreational activities, and scenic views.
