Natomas Marketplace

Plenty of shops to choose from. Ez freeway access. Best to avoid peak times for ez in and out.

As you’ve heard from others, on any normal day the traffic in and out of the parking lot is a nightmare. But if you add to that the additional congestion caused by roadwork at the main entrance and you get a Cluster F. of Biblical proportions. It took over half and hour just to get out of the parking lot today because the geniuses at the City of Sacramento Department of Transportation thought that Saturday afternoon would be a good time to close off two lanes on Truxel at the main entrance and fill some potholes. After that experience I will NEVER enter this mess of a shopping center again!

People seem to hate the parking lot, if so many people are complaining about bad driving I’d say that just us Unilocalers could change the attitude by ourselves. That being said, I am here far to often, there are so many stores I make use of. I hate Walmart but I go there for the pharmacy, the staff are phenomenal. Home Depot meets all my DIY needs and the staff are great. I don’t use many other stores but my wife does. I’m glad the center exists even if the people are ghetto jackasses that drive poorly.

LPA should be sued for making such a HORRIBLE enter/​exit pattern for this place! And parking is, like everyone says, a nightmare. It’s getting a bit better, but I’m not holding out hope…

Worst parking lot ever. Not just for cars, but for people too. My boyfriend and I came for a movie, but got there extra early. So we decided to walk over to Wal-​Mart to pick up a couple things while we waited. We almost got hit twice! There’s a nice little path way that goes from the theater to the BoA ATM, and then that’s it. If you want to walk further you risk your life. I’m a fan of walking when getting in the car and reparking will take twice as long as just walking, but walking in this pakring lot is not a good idea.

I am so glad they fixed (what they could) they bad design for entering and exiting this place. I frequent a lot of the stores here and just glad that i don’t have to go downtown to the things I need. Still think there could have been a better design. just take your patience with youi when you go here especially on the weekends.

Every time I drive through here, and it’s a lot, I wonder how many idiots it took to collectively get this cluster F of a parking lot designed and approved. It truly is a marvel how they avoid a one-​a-​day accident rate.

now i’m not sure if this review is for the parking lot or what, but today i happened to be walking and mini drives all around natomas parking lot for all my needs. Ross was there, Michael’s art supply, Walmart, Yogurt shop, Starbucks Barnes and Noble. Seem like everyone was friendly to me today. i have to say today was a good day! good service everywhere it seemed =)

shop at your own risk

At Natomas Marketplace, you will find just about every major National Retail Store in America. I wouldn’t consider it an Outlet Mall like Vacaville or Folsom but it’s only minutes from downtown Sacramento.

Natomas has been an eyesore since day-​one. What a waste of money. I refuse to be entangled in the traffic nightmare. The prices belong in Folsom as well. Maybe it will die an unglorified death after some time. One can only hope.

I’d like to meet the genius who designed the parking lot.
In fact, I want to nominate it as one of James Howard Kunstler’s «Eyesore of the Month». It’s not only an eyesore, it’s a huge headache and a complete nightmare!

Dear Scourge of Suburbia,
Congratulations. You must be the most monstrous strip mall in all existence. And now, your tentacles reaching out in all directions to envelop the minds and hearts of the citizens of Natomas everywhere, your nihilistic conquest is almost complete.
Yours truly and forever,

Dumbest parking. Ever.
It looks like an oasis from the highway, but don’t be fooled.
Shop at your own risk.
