Delta Meadows Park Property, Natural reserve in Sacramento County, United States.
Delta Meadows Park Property is a natural reserve spanning about 472 acres between the Sacramento and Mokelumne Rivers, featuring wetlands, wet meadows, and islands. The landscape is marked by dense oak and willow forests and is best reached by boat or via levee paths.
The property was placed under protection in 1985 by California's state park authority to preserve natural habitats from development. This designation marked a key moment in safeguarding this delta region for the future.
The property connects visitors to the Chinese American past of nearby Locke through preserved historic buildings on site. This link shows how different communities shaped the region and left marks that remain visible today.
The park can be reached by boat or via the Railroad Slough Levee from River Road and offers fishing, walking, and wildlife observation. The area is best explored in drier weather when paths are easier to navigate.
The park is home to black-tailed deer, beavers, and river otters visible in the forests and waterways. These animals shape the ecosystem and make the location especially rewarding for nature watchers.
