History
Sly Park, near Pollock Pines, noted for its beautiful surroundings, has always been a favorite stopping place. Before Jenkinson Lake came to be, the area was a large, flower covered meadow with spring fed streams. This is where the Maidu and Miwok people came in the summer and fall to hunt and gather food. In 1848, part of the Mormon Battalion made its way to present day Sly Park area with its rich meadow lands and continued on to blaze the trail east. The earliest known settlers in Sly Park were Hiram O. Bryant and William Stonebreaker, who on June 24, 1853, each claimed 160 acres of adjoining land (just east of the present main dam) for agriculture and grazing. They built houses and outhouses and the place became known as Sly Park Ranch. In 1951, after 27 years of effort, the Bureau of Reclamation began to clear the area and build Sly Park Dam. Storage of water was started in November 1954, and the resulting 41,000-acre feet capacity lake was named after Walter Jenkinson who persevered to make it a reality. This helped solve the need for water in the area by the El Dorado Irrigation District. One of the original Pony Express stations (Twelve Mile House) was located in Pollock Pines. A stopping place for stages and teams of the Comstock, it became a relay station of the Central Overland Pony Express. Pollock Pines was primarily a lumber community. The town is named for H.R. Pollock, who operated a lumber mill in the area in the early 1900s. The first post office opened in 1936. The name celebrates the Pollock family, who were early settlers.

Placerville is a 15-minute drive to the west on US-50 and Sacramento a mere 45 minutes further. Lake Tahoe and the surrounding Sierra Nevada wonderland is just 36-miles east on US-50. Pollock Pines and the other neighboring towns and communities provide excellent shopping, dining, recreation, golfing and more. See the Recreation section for more.

History
Garden Valley, California lies between Georgetown and Coloma in El Dorado County, at the junction of Irish and Empire Creeks, and had a post office by 1852.

Tucked in the heart of El Dorado County, Garden Valley is a peaceful and picturesque Californian community that offers an idyllic retreat from the bustling city life, while being comfortably nestled between Sacramento and South Lake Tahoe. It boasts a winning combination of serene surroundings of the countryside, the tranquil ambiance of a small-town, and scenic vistas of the landscape, characterized by undulating hills, extensive forests, and crystal-clear creeks.
The outdoor opportunities in and around Garden Valley are nearly limitless. The picturesque Coloma-Lotus Valley is rich in history, with class 3 rated South Fork of the American River offering unrivaled sports such as white-water rafting and kayaking. The landscape has numerous parks, extensive hiking and horseback riding trails, not to mention a variety of wineries and restaurants within a few minute's drive.

History
Garden Valley, California lies between Georgetown and Coloma in El Dorado County, at the junction of Irish and Empire Creeks, and had a post office by 1852. It is said that the name was given because it was more profitable to grow vegetables there than to mine. However, it was a busy mining area by 1852.
Tucked in the heart of El Dorado County, Garden Valley is a peaceful and picturesque Californian community that offers an idyllic retreat from the bustling city life, while being comfortably nestled between Sacramento and South Lake Tahoe. It boasts a winning combination of serene surroundings of the countryside, the tranquil ambiance of a small-town, and scenic vistas of the landscape, characterized by undulating hills, extensive forests, and crystal-clear creeks.
The outdoor opportunities in and around Garden Valley are nearly limitless. The picturesque Coloma-Lotus Valley is rich in history, with class 3 rated South Fork of the American River offering unrivaled sports such as white-water rafting and kayaking. The landscape has numerous parks, extensive hiking and horseback riding trails, not to mention a variety of wineries and restaurants within a few minute's drive.
