HelmsBriscoe Associates

Discover golden opportunities in Rancho Cordova, where adventure awaits you in every direction.

Meeting and event planners find their golden hour in Rancho Cordova, California, a hidden gem destination in the heart of idyllic Northern California.

The Gold Country region is home to mazes of sparkling waterways and the sweeping landscapes of the Sierra foothills, boasting more affordable accommodations without sacrificing any of the rich beauty that has come to be known as California's best selling point.

Planners love hosting their events in Rancho Cordova to save money and provide a quirky backdrop to team retreats, executive meetings, and sports tournaments. Rancho Cordova, affectionately known as "The Cho," is also a hop, skip, and jump away from major destinations, making teambuilding day trips as easy as a walk on the American River Parkway.

Whether your group enjoys morning paddles, tasty craft brews, adrenaline-pumping events, or international eats, choose your own adventure in Rancho Cordova... and adventure will choose you back.
