KSAC is the preferred GA airport over KSMF. GA certainly can use
KSMF, but KSAC is much better set up for GA traffic. As for the cross
runways (6!) frankly I find it confusing. Many taxiways cross runways
and it's easy to make a mistake. I almost always ask for a
progressive taxi because I don't use the airport often enough to get
familiar with it.

Of course, depending on where your final destination is and what your
ground transport needs are, you might prefer other, smaller GA airports.


KSAC is definitely the GA airport to go to in the Sacramento
area. However, depending on what you may be doing there, also consider
KMHR (Mather Field). It's a bit further out (10DME, SAC R-040), and is
a much quieter field. It's mainly used for cargo and some business. But
when in doubt in the Sacramento area, SAC is the place to go for GA
aircraft.
