Any San Diego Members

[er78mph]

Hello,
I was wondering if anyone on this forum was from San Diego, CA? I've learn so much here and would like possibly gain additional insight from someone locally? If not, is there any RV clubs that are worth looking into? THanks!

Best place to photograph San Diego and the bay, from the Military Cemetery on Point Loma enter on the left entrance and make your way towards the left and along the fence until you come to the end, the view is incredible.

In old town there is the old house in the square worth seeing, the restaurants in the square are not worth going to, they are run by a corporation from New York and the food is lousy, instead go out to a restaurant on the corner Gudalajara Grill that's where San Diegans go.

Tartine is the place for desserts in Coronado, finally came to me.

Lived 32 years in Imperial Beach, traveled to Coronado past the Strand, never stayed, they have upgraded the area, drove by in June of this year, it appears that they now have electricity to some of the sites, call ahead they can get jam packed for the holly day's, it can be windy and chilly at night.

If you are going take I-5 South past National City and Chula Vista until State 75 towards Imperal Beach continue until you see the over pass at the entrance to the Coronado Kays there is a stop light and a left turn, make a left turn under the underpass the entrance to the Strand is on the second right hand turn after the stop sign.

I do not recommend going over the Coronado Bay bridge, it can be windy specially for RV'S drove it once in the RV, never again!

When you go make an effort to visit the Midway Carrier, the zoo and the Wild Animal Park, the Airspace museum and Balboa Park, there is a model railroad exhibit that I like to go to, etc.

The Hotel del Coronado has a Christmas tree that is worth seeing, a good place to eat in Coronado is the Coronado brewery on Orange Avenue, very good food and reasonable prices, warning a lot of military brass for lunch, good deserts end of Coronado and right turn just around the corner French name do not remember it.

Retired out of Temecula. Spent a lot of time at Bernardo Shores before it closed. What specifically are you asking for? Places to RV? Servicing? Or just general questions that do come up as part of the learning curve?

Not military, but spent a great deal of time at Bernardo Shores before it closed. Biked by FC a couple of times a week. Looked great. Talked to a number of people who had stayed there. They loved it.

Hmm, small world. In my early life I spent several years in both Chula Vista and Escondido.

There are a a few places in San Diego it self that are still worth going to, one is the Strand between Imperial Beach and Coronado, also the. kOA in Chula Vista, Bernardo Shores closed in August of this year and further South there is La Pacifica, do not even think of going there it has been converted into a trashy trailer park, drug dealers, gang members, a lot off theft, no management at all.

There are a number of places around San Diego, State and County parks that have RV camping Agua Caliente is a hot springs place, only open during the winter months, there are a couple of RV places on the road to Julian, one I believe is State and the other is private, then you have Borrego Springs, and along highway 94 there are a few.

I'm in Escondido, does that count?

Good Sam Club has several chapters in the San Diego area. You could look into one of those.

We spend 3 to 4 months each year at the Chula Vista RV Resort south of San Diego.

I would do a google search using "RV clubs San Diego" as your search terms.

Many RV brands have clubs with local chapters so also do a search using the RV name and club as search.
