Cool
After you leave Auburn and drive
6 winding miles east on Highway
49, you come to a community of about
3,500 people along the east side
of the American River Canyon.
Many people don't realize that
there is a 1,000 home gated called
Auburn Lake Trails. The community
started building about 30 years
ago, so you will find brand new
homes and some 30+ years old.
The surrounding area ( Virtual
Tour) has homes on large parcels
and a small shopping area at the
intersection on Highway 49.
The annual 31-mile Way Too Cool
race draws runners to the area each
year. Cool is also known for
the annual Blues Festival, which
the Milstone Saloon holds the first
Sunday of each October to raise
money for prostate cancer.
