Seattle 2014 Trip: Phoenix-LA and Up the Coast

7/11/2014

0 Comments

 
Left Phoenix for the LA area and stayed overnight at a very nice RV park in the middle of Los Angeles (who knew?). The East Shore RV Park is high on a hill overlooking the Puddingstone Reservoir. Definitely a great place to stay while in the LA area.

Drove up Highway 1 from Los Angeles to the Betabel RV Park just south of San Francisco in one day. Super windy between Paso Robles and Salinas (the wind is not a friend of a big RV!).

Actually drove the RV through San Francisco and over the Golden Gate Bridge. Went up the 101, cut over to the 280 then through San Francisco on Highway 1 and across the bridge. Wasn't too bad a drive - better than I expected. Narrow streets, but doable.

Always enjoy driving thru the Redwoods and stopping at several view areas along the way up the Northern California coast.

Stayed at the Riverwalk RV Park in Fortuna, CA on the way up to Oregon. Love the views of the coast! Found the Oceanside RV Park near Coos Bay - turned out to be a real gem. Beautiful sandy beach!

Drove only 133 miles the next day with stops at view points and the Sea Lion Caves. Stayed at Premier RV Resort of Lincoln City. Very nice park. We took advantage of their Jacuzzi that night!

Cut inland from Lincoln City through Portland and up I-5 the rest of the way to Seattle (not a fan of I-5. Driven that stretch too many times while living in Portland for seven years!).
