You don't have to live like a pioneer at a Sutter's Fort apartment, but you can find out how the early settlers of California lived at Sutter's Fort State Historical Park. Residents of Sacramento apartments can find out all kinds of cool information about how people were tough in the mid 1800's. See the living history with park employees dressed in the wear of that day, long dresses and bonnets for the ladies, and rough pants and hats for the men, chopping wood and cooking with primitive utensils and live fire. It will make visitors happy to return to the comforts of their Sutter's Fort apartments. Sutter's Fort, originally called New Helvetia, or New Switzerland, was the earliest non-Indian settlement in California's Central Valley, that is, at least 150 years earlier than your Sacramento apartment was here. Unfortunately, gold diggers took over the area and the fertile agricultural area was run over. It was restored for visitors to enjoy the California History. Real horse pulled wagons, cannons, rough wood furniture, simple dishes and tools and lots of antique guns can be found at Sutter's Creek State Historical Park. The simple walls represent nothing of today's Sacramento apartments, and the lack of indoor plumbing is distressing. Bathrooms are available for visitors, however, as well as a quaint gift shop where you can purchase historical books, toys and even decorations or pictures for yours and your friends' Sutter's Fort apartments. If you're lucky, your visit will come on a day when the crew is mixing up a pot of stew and you can grab a taste. The park is cheap to visit, just $4 for adults and $2 for kids, and is open every day from 10 am to 5 pm every day of the year except for Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year's Day. Sutter's Fort is also available to rent for that special event where you can invite all of your Sacramento apartment buddies.
