Located just 15 miles south from historic
Sutter's Fort and the California State Capitol, the Comfort
Suites Elk Grove is your gateway to California's famed Mother
Lode, site of the Gold Rush of 1849. The Elk Grove Area became
a crossroads for culture, business and agriculture ventures
and also supplied much of the needs of the early miners in
the gold fields from Sheldon, Sloughhouse, and Coloma (Sutter's
Mill) diggings.
 Elk Grove beautifully blends its small-town
feeling with all the amenities of an urban area. Today, Elk Grove is the second fastest-growing area in the
region, and California's first new city of the 21st Century. With its recent growth, a conscious effort has been made to
maintain the community's character. 
The area has also taken
steps to ensure that the natural beauty of the region is preserved,
with open spaces such as the Cosumnes River Preserve and the
Stone Lakes Wildlife Refuge. The parks' Visitors' Centers
welcome hikers, birdwatchers and casual visitors alike to
experience the wild beauty of the area.
