Founded in 1895, the heart of our town centers on Old Fair Oaks, a historic community filled with charm. Unique store fronts, antique shops, the Amphitheatre and local artists who proudly display their wares are all part of what makes Fair Oaks a desirable place to call home. Just blocks from the entrance to the American River, you can enjoy hiking and biking trails, fishing and kayaking or perhaps you’ll simply sit and enjoy the beautiful river views that can be seen from the Fair Oaks Bridge.
