Please post the address (or enough information to find it) and the district if you know -- this will help to isolated a group of houses to view in one area.

House owners can post as well as anyone who has seen a house that they think others would want to see.

Here's the current map:

Thanks!

307 Figueroa St with the crossstreet of Coloma in the Old Town district. Although no one else on this small side of Figueroa has decorated, Figueroa St. on the other side of Coloma is fairly well lit up smile.gif

Turnpike seems to have quite a few houses with lights and the side streets off of there do too, like Orange Blossom.

Our street has a decent showing - Fratis St, off of Stewart, Prairie Oaks. Ours is the house with the Kings colors!

Of course, I'd be remissed to not include Dovewood Court in Orangevale in this thread... it is legendary - the whole street looks like Clark Griswold's house!

For a great little street in Folsom, Try Ledgemont Ct, Right off Dulverton Cir in Lexington Hills. Reminds me of a mini Dovewood Court.

theres a neighborhood in Rocklin that is really nice as well its behind the bel air off of sunset must be 100 houses that are all lie up. Anyone up for the drive you just take douglas to E Roseville Parkway and turn right follow it all the way to Galleria and turn right again Follow Galleria all the way past Sunset and take a left on Cobbleston Follow Cobblestone all the way to the end and take a right and youll be in the neighborhood. Not as good as Dovewood Court but very impressive since theres so many decorated houses.

it's going on right now - I think it's from like 5-10 every night. Dovewood Court is right outside the Folsom city limits, you can find it on MapQuest.

Bring a few cans of food to donate - they accept donations.

Turnpike isn't that great, IMHO. Turn off onto Boxcar, and then Fantages/Yankton, and you'll see some good displays.

A christmas display map has been created. It can be viewed here:

In situations where the exact address was unknown and a street was given, I tried to center the marker where most of the street would have been seen.
