The more jaded amongst us will fail to recognize that this is a place that is needed and a great asset for the gay community. No, it isn't perfect, and there won't always be ten hot guys ready to blow you, but it is a very clean, friendly, and well managed business. Like every bathouse timing is everything, and you'll need to figure out the best time to visit which may take a few visits... but this place is very inexpensive. Things I like: The facility is well kept. Great mix of patrons. Great flow thru the building with some hidden nooks and crannies. I love the elevated glory hole viewing/sucking area. Very open and welcoming vibe. Friendly and attentive staff. Lots of booths with gloryholes. Large and open main play area. Things that could be better: The place seems a little too well lit, would be nice to have a little darker atmosphere. The music doesn't set a very sexy mood and the volume is too low. Better lighting in parking area. And finally... I'm not sure the men in Sacramento understand that this is a place where you can let go and express yourself... it is shockingly quiet with a lot of men just constantly cruising... even when guys are having sex they don't make a sound... this just seems odd to me but I'm very verbal and expressive... maybe it's because Sacramento is overall very conservative...? read more

I visited for the first time on a recent Saturday around 6-9 pm. It's a small place: only about 10 private rooms, a small steam room, and a moderately sized communal play area. There were 10-15 other guys there during the course of my stay. Not bad considering the time of day. Between showing off what I had to offer under my towel and being "fresh meat" for some obvious regulars at the place, I got a lot of attention very quickly. I played extensively with 3 guys, all separately. The crowd was as mixed racially as Sactown is and the average age was 50+. For what it is, this place is solid: it's clean and offers a decent play space. There are bigger baths out there that offer more elaborate amenities and play spaces, but that's just not Sac Buddies at this time. read more

Having Kevin at the front desk put me at ease. Swell guy, provided an overview of the place. professional and welcoming. a good guy representing the place well. Inside, nice vibe. lots of public area little rooms and cubbies and props for all the fantasies your mind can dream up. plentiful showers and locker area and private rooms. fairly dark with upbeat pop / dance playing. Went during a weekday so adjust expectations with #of patrons. but it wasn't empty! reading earlier review was concerned about how "small" it is. not really. there's plenty to explore, and it's in a maze like arrangement so if one room doesn't tickle your fancy there's plenty of others. Sure, hot tub or pool or gym or barber or ... would be nice additions. lol. but this place is pretty cool as it is. read more

Wonderful experience people Ass the best that very friend and respectful staff smooth

The best bathhouse ever! There's always something hot going on in there! I definitely recommend!

First visit and it was wonderful. Staff is exceptionaly friendly. Nice to see the steam room cleaned working. Both movie rooms are lots of fun. read more

Steamworks is much cleaner, cheaper price and safer with locked entrance door but this is all that's available in Sacramento so...

Affordable, friendly, and fun Clean and good staff could use a hot tub and a sauna maybe someday they will have that installed read more

I went here today just for two hours and it was fun. I wouldn't during the daytime, so it was kind of dead, but I still enjoyed myself. There was a few people there. read more

Does anyone know the best time to visit on a weekend to find younger crowds? Also what time is it usually packed? The fact that this place is well maintained is a huge plus! I was here for the first time last weekend, and it was a blast. read more

Sac Buddies - Adult Entertainment Near Me - Sacramento, California

Sac Buddies is a fun, well-run bathhouse. The facilities are simple and small, but have everything you would need -- showers, lockers, private rooms, and numerous play areas. There is no steam or sauna, but a nice outdoor area with an outdoor shower and play areas. I found the staff to be friendly, down to earth, and helpful -- and this seems to trickle down to the clientele. There is a general lack of pretension here -- everyone is here to relax, be themselves, and have a good time. A great place to spend an afternoon or evening -- highly recommended! read more

First time going here, and probably the last time. This place is so cheaply constructed on the inside. You can see what looks like plywood sheets visible to the people. They don't offer anything for first timers. Like steamworks does which offers a free month if it's your first time there. So if you're driving from somewhere far to come here don't bother. Too much light too. It's not dark enough to mess around or feel more comfortable for a bathhouse?.... Very small too in comparison to steamworks. No sauna, no steam room, no jacuzzi. Only one bathroom. You have to wait for the person that's douching (which would take 10-15 mins or more), that's not cool. Plus it only has one peeing station too lol. And to say the least they close at 10 pm. That was very inconvenient for the amount of money they charge. Yup just not worth it. read more

I always have a great time. Staff is super nice. The only thing I would add is a coffee machine. Well and maybe a discount for the regulars. Lol. JK read more

Pretty good place to go and hang out. I first went there a few years ago, when they first opened up. They've done a lot of improvements and are on their way to becoming a first class club. read more

Great place to relax and blow off some steam. Friendly staff and they actually have towels unlike Steamworks. The place could use a little adjustments here and there but so far it's a welcoming place with great parking and a patio for smoking or choking yours or theirs chicken. read more

Renovations have been great. The main room, outdoor area and showers are my favorites. Plus Kevin and the rest of the staff are super chill.

First time to sac buddies, the front desk staff and the staff working the back were awesome!!! Venue is very clean, areas are comfortable,. Room was excellent!! Shower was great!!! Had a great time, felt very comfortable and safe. No one was pushy or creepy. Met a great guy and had a awesome time. I will be going back, join for 6 months!! read more

This is a wonderful, safe place to let go of your inhibitions and have a great time. The staff is so nice and inviting, and not bad to look at during check in and at check out. The property itself is well maintained. The atmosphere is dark and alluring. A gentleman's playground. Come have a good time. Enjoy the private rooms or a variety of play areas. We'll see you soon. read more

Love going to Sacbuddies, Great Staff and Atmosphere...Love the Patio, People are easy going.

While not as big as other locations it is extremely comfortable and every staff member is kind, caring, and respectful. Love their out door area, it will be a blast and beautiful in the summer! Kind of pricey for lockers but it is unlimited access from open to close. read more

This place is pretty awesome! My bf and I are budding regulars who enjoy man on man time and good laughs with new friends. The place is very clean and the attendants are constantly cleaning. read more

So weird that I had been to the club at least 3x already since opening. First visit I only did a one time visit thinking I won't frequent the place. Next visit I paid my 6mo membership and had gone back at least twice with the normal entrance. Went back again this month (May) and told my membership expired already and shows only one visit with the one time entrance. Whatever happened to my 6 month membership and the two other visits? Not on database!! Had to pay another one time entrance since driving far. Don't think I'll be returning. Feel I got ripped off. Good clean ambiance and fun but something is wrong with updating database. read more

The place went through a huge remodel right before covid hit. It looks amazing now, very clean, comfortable and pleasing. The whole place flows better and is more relaxing. I'm going to spend alit of time here. read more

I like going there. It would be nice if anyone asks before they touch you. You sit down nude and it's like you are meat to them. It's possible that the people going there won't read this, hopefully it will help someone else before they go. Just because I'm nude doesn't make it okay in my opinion to be touched with out asking . One guy wanted to get laid, told him no, and i had to practically push him off. Other then that i had a good time with other guys. read more

I met my husband there. the. front desk guy was a perv. it added to the joyful experience. he was our ring barer

First of all, I want to thank this place for doing everything they can to keep the play area clean and sanitized for all of us to have a safe and secure place to go. The prices are unbelievably good, and there is no time limit, go relax and don't stress about how long you can play. The staff is very kind, they all are wearing masks and making sure we all are too. Since they have reopened I have to say the whole building has new life. This place is the only club for us to play, and I will and recommend anyone who wants to come and play to pick sac buddies. Staff are amazing and if I could give more stars I would. read more

I went there twice probably at the wrong time. It was okay. There wasn't much guys around at all. The staff were nice and forgiving even after others broke the rules. read more

Waste of time and money There is no sauna and the cleanliness of the hot tub is questionable Some guys wander around fully clothed and the place has a bad vibe read more

fantastic place! staff was amazing! friendliest place like this I've been to. very Comfortable atmosphere. I loved hanging out on the patio and watching all the guys. cool retrofitted can in the playroom and had few hot encounters in the back of the van. This was a sunday afternoon and stayed til closing. I'll be coming back for sure! Thanks guys I hope too see you soon read more

The staff at Sac Buddies are wonderful and kind. The facility is great a work in progress they are always working to improve the experience. The people who are critical my not be old enough to remember the other two facilities in the bay area where also works in progress for decades before the evolved into what they are today. This city has needed Sac Buddies for a long time and I am glad it is here. The city might want to take note how the facilities in the bay area were such a help to the community providing education and health screenings. Sacramento don't miss this opportunity. Work with Sac Buddies to re-open soon! read more

Decent facility, but don't waste your money. The guys who go are lame weirdos Who seem to like to pay to walk around in a towel for several hours and not actually have any sex. And I was bar far the hottest guy there. Waste of time and money. read more
