Cameron Park Wedding

Cameron Park is a census-designated place (CDP) in El Dorado County, California, United States. The population was 14,549 at the 2000 census. Cameron Park is a relatively new community situated in the Northern California Gold Country of the Sierra Nevada foothills, approximately 30 miles east of Sacramento and 70 miles west of South Lake Tahoe.

The original inhabitants of the area surrounding Cameron Park were the Niesnan branch of the Maidu Indians. Grinding rocks and burial mounds serve as glimpses of the past and are still visible in various locations around Cameron Park.

Major development began in the area when Larry Cameron purchased 5000 foothill acres in the 1950s for ranching purposes. In the years since then, the land has slowly been divided into lots of varying sizes, including ranch-sized properties and medium and high density residential neighborhoods. Today, Cameron Park contains a mix of large ranches, single family homes, apartments and businesses.
