Question: What would you recommend for RV travel in San Francisco?

Question : What would you recommend for RV travel in San Francisco?
I'm flying to San Francisco and renting an RV in October. I'm aware that traffic and parking is a mess in San Francisco, but what other routes would be a good way to go? We'd like to go up through Napa Valley and maybe further north. Any ideas? Thanks.

Answer #1
If you're driving to Napa, take 101 to 37, it's much prettier than the route through Oakland. Check out Sonoma while you're up there -- it's goregous and not as tourist-crowded as Napa.I don't know much about further north of Napa, but if you're going south of SF too -- you should drive down Highway 1 -- it was just re-opened all the way down. It's a beatiful drive down to Half Moon Bay, and Monterey. Carmel is only 2-2 1/2 hours from SF and is really a must-see. Lots of litte B&B's to stay in, art galleries, and Point Lobos for hiking.Have fun!

If you are just driving through, then you should have no problem with a RV. If you plan to stay for a few days, it can get costly. There is one RV park. I'd recommend parking there and taking the Muni train or bus around The City.

the wineries through sonoma are better than napa.north of napa? tahoe/reno? though that might not be a trip to take in an rv--elevations above 7000 ft; there are several national parks up that way. south i'd recommend monterey. yosemite is east/south.

There is an RV park in Pacifica, California - which is only seven miles from the city. The RV park is right on the ocean - literally like 100 feet away - and it's quiet and beautiful. You should check it out!

Answer #6
I would say get the RV outside of SF if possible. Can't imagine find street parking for an RV in SF....
