During your Sacramento vacation, don't miss these great establishments and attractions:
Sutter's Fort State Historic Park
John Sutter established this outpost in 1839, and the park, restored to its 1846 appearance, aims to recapture the spirit of 19th-century California. Exhibits include a blacksmith's forge, cooperage, bakery, and jail -- and a self-guided audio tour is available. Demonstrations and reenactments in costume are staged daily Memorial Day to Labor Day, when admissions are bumped to $4 for adults and $1 for children 6 to 16.
Crocker Art Museum
This museum houses an outstanding collection of California art, as well as changing exhibits from around the world. It's in an imposing century-old Italianate building, with an ornate interior of carved and inlaid woods. The Crocker Mansion Wing, the museum's most recent addition, is modeled after the Crocker family home and contains works by Northern California artists from 1945 to the present. Plan to spend about an hour here.

The Sacramento Vagabond Inn
A reliable choice within walking distance of the state capitol, the Vagabond Inn has a host of free features, including local phone calls, weekday newspapers, and continental breakfast. Bedrooms are clean and comfortable but not exceptional -- it's the economical rates and the convenient location that make it worth your while. There's an adjoining 24-hour Denny's restaurant as well.
Sheraton Grand Sacramento Hotel
This convention hotel opened in 2001 and is praised for its high-tech amenities, a million-dollar public art collection, and the preservation of a beloved landmark. The hotel's 504 rooms are in a shiny, 26-story building adjoining a three-story building that was originally Sacramento's public market from 1920 to the 1960s. This historic structure, designed by Julia Morgan, architect for Hearst Castle, was a favorite gathering place for three generations of Sacramentans. Now housing the lobby, bar, and two restaurants, the site is again a downtown focal point for residents and travelers alike. The accommodations are convention-type hotel rooms -- a mite anonymous, but not unpleasant.
Delta King Riverboat
The Delta King carried passengers between San Francisco and Sacramento in the 1930s. Permanently moored in Sacramento since 1984, the riverboat is now a somewhat gimmicky but charming hotel. Staying here can be a novelty, but the staterooms in a boat are not ultra-cozy and may bother landlubbers, especially if you're planning to spend a lot of time in your room. All units are nearly identical and have private bathrooms and low ceilings. The captain's quarters, a pricey suite, is a unique, mahogany-paneled stateroom, complete with an observation platform and private deck.The Pilothouse Restaurant is popular for local office parties. When the weather is nice, there's dining on outside decks with views of Old Sacramento. Live entertainment is presented below decks in two venues on Friday and Saturday nights. In the Mark Twain Lounge, "Suspect's Murder Mystery Dinner Theatre," an interactive whodunit, challenges the audience to reveal the true murderer, played by actors in period dress. It's $35 per person to attend, but that includes dinner, tax, and gratuity. Drinks are extra. Or for $14 a person, you can see a local production of a Broadway play in the 75-seat Delta King Theatre.
