San Franciso camping

chabotcounty campground in castro valley. full hookups short ride to bart.

Another option would be the Alameda Fairgrounds in Pleasanton CA. Bart has a station in Pleasanton that you can ride into SF.

Are you coming from the north or south..or east?

We've stayed in Santa Rosa at the Sonoma County Fairgrounds (it honors many types of camping passes, is reasonable for the area, and has hookups) and also Napa Valley Expo. Both are very easy to get to from the north or east. Never came in from the south. Hwy 37 from I-80 at Vallejo is a easy drive to Napa or continue on 37 to 101 and north to Santa Rosa.

We took an excellent small van all-day tour of the city and Sausalito. We drove our car to the Larkspur Landing ferry at 101/580 and picked up the ferry from there - no driving into the city. The ferry is a short pleasant ride across the bay past Alcatraz. It let us off at the Ferry Building by Fisherman's Wharf and the tour van was waiting for us. At the end of the day tour we reversed to get back to our car. Even our daughter, who lives in the city, was very impressed with the tour. We had plenty of time out of the van for walking around the Golden Gate Bridge and the Japanese Garden and other landmarks. We also had lunch in Sausalito by riding across the bridge.

We would like to camp within thirty or so miles. DH does not want to pull our rig into heavy traffic to park. Have visited rvparkreviews but can't find anything.

Don't worry you won't be parking the rig in SF. :B

Look up the BART and Ferry routes and find a CG near a terminal that you can walk or drive to. Some parks also have shuttle service to those locations or a taxi might work out.

Personally I'd avoid Candlestick and the Oakland area due to the neighborhoods.
Pacificia should be a good choice.
Coyote Point with limited hookups is close to BART and the South San Francisco ferry. It's also near the SFO flight path.
There are several CGs to the north and you can take the ferry, Petaluma, etc plus the ferry from Vallejo.

You can drive the TV but it can be very slow during rush hour and will almost always be congested in SF. And parking can be a challenge.

We stayed at Marin Park Campground (Good Sam park).
Narrow spaces.
About 1/4 mile walk or less to ferry.
Ferry takes you to Pier 1.
Big discount on the ferry if older than 65.
If you drive a car to the ferry, they have an online only, parking system (for a fee).
Drove me crazy trying to figure it out.

Petaluma KOA.

Half Moon State Park electric and water with dump station on the beach 30 miles to the Golden Gate Bridge. Reservations a must.

I would echo the comment about staying somewhere close to a BART station. Check out a BART map and that'll give you an idea on areas to target. It's easy to use and cheap. Set Uber up on your phones as well - it's also worked great for us in SF.

+1 here. Short drive to the BART and into the city you go like a local.
