well the way I see it is I'm half way there, save on gasoline :eyecrazy:
My sister will be flying up Tues morning so Tuesday will be Santa Cruz mystery spot, grocery store, campground pool and laundry...
I wish we could go with you. I really wanted to extend our trip and go to the Redwoods, Fort Bragg and up to Crater Lake but not this year.

Brandon can't get that many days off work.....plus, that is VBS week for the girls. They are already going to be cranky about missing one day as is!
Have fun, though!!

Hi All,
I know, I know, haven't been on the boards for quite some time. We have had a very rough year. Wasn't sure if we would make it back!:yikes:
We are actually going to be in Santa Cruz from July 26-31st. We were going to stay at Santa Cruz KOA, but if people will be at Smithwoods, we will think about it. O.K. same question as always: How are the restrooms??
Hope you all are well.

Estelle,
We have stayed at Smithwoods several times. I can tell you that the restrooms, laundry, pool, rec room are all immaculate. It's a family operation and their pride shows.
Kevin & Todd
Thank you! It's also a lot cheaper than the KOA in S.C. We stayed there last year and while it was very nice, it was pricey at $80 a night. How far exactly from Santa Cruz/Aptos is it? Also from San Francisco?
Thanks!

This is north of Santa cruz a bit, I was told to San jose airport...20 miles 45 minutes.
I looked at the KOA and saw the wanted at least $80/night. it seems like a nice campground with lots to do, but we will not be there much, so I thought I'd save the $30/night to do other things...it looks like a nice place and when I made my reservations, they seemed really nice.
Hi there,
We will be staying at Smithwoods RV from July 26 through the 31st. We are in space #61.
We won't be around a whole lot either, but it sure will be nice to have someone you know at the campground. John is looking forward to seeing Kara again also. He was disappointed when he though he wouldn't get to see her this year camping.
We will be up at Pismo Beach from July 23rd through the 26th, then head up to Santa Cruz. That will be our main base while we go to San Francisco, Aptos, Santa Cruz, Berkeley and Los Gatos to visit relatives.
Looking forward to seeing you guys.

Very cool you will be right next to us!! Is this the start of a mini rally????
I will be arriving some point & time on Monday the 28th. My sister (total complete opposite of me) will fly into San Jose Tues morning and grab a shuttle.
our plan for Tues is to grocery shop. laundry, and hanging out close to camp. Wed. we will be driving to UC Davis. Thurs Berkeley, & Friday Stanford. we will be going to colleges in the am and sightseeing in the afternoon. I think Wed we may take the kids to the Santa Cruz boardwalk....too far away for me to plan right. now...
...you guys should pop in and say hi while the gang is at Lopez.
can't wait to see you guys
glad you're camping next to us

Hi, we had family member stay there over the Memorial Day Holiday and they said that the place was great- the staff was very friendly and helpful. On Sunday they provided hambugers & hotdogs for all the campers. It is privately owned by the same family for over 100 years and you can walk to the Roaring Camp Railroad from the campground. It has a heated swimming pool and a lot of activities for everyone- have a great time :-()
