Vancouver, BC to San Francisco, CA

I am planning a road trip from Vancouver, BC to San Francisco, CA this summer. I would like to take the trip along the Coast for the more scenic route. From what i understand this will take longer but will be worth it (approx. 21 hours??).







I am just wondering if anyone has any suggestions for where to stay along the way- we were looking for B%26amp;B%26#39;s along the way.







Does anyone have any suggestions?

suggest you go to www.traveloregon.com for good info. good luck.

I gave you a list of possible B%26amp;B%26#39;s in your other thread. You can also do a Google search to find more:

I%26#39;m curious. Why are you posting now on the Welches Forum? We all saw your identical query previously on the overall Oregon Forum. Were you not satisfied with our information?




i have been told that 3 days isnt enough time to drive the coast from Vancouver, BC to San Francisco, CA... is this true? Has anyone done this trip or something similar before...?




Rough numbers:



Vancouver BC -%26gt; Astoria, OR via I-5 thru WA = 6 hours



Astoria, OR -%26gt; San Francisco via Hwy 101 = 15 hours



Total actual driving time about 21 hours.



Note: The above estimates do not include *any* stops.




i%26#39;m planning on Vancouver to Newport Orgeon day one, Newport to Eureka, CA day two and Eureka to San Francisco day 3...




Days two and three are fine.



Day one you would need to drive down I-5 as far as at least Salem, then cut over to the coast. I%26#39;ve driven that and it takes about 9 hours including short stops to go from Newport to Vancouver airport - that includes a quick border crossing of about 15 minutes. (Average freeway speed of about 65-68 MPH)




I did not see your other post and will not look for it. You ask for B%26amp;B on trip and give no idea of time you have. or where you might stay. then you say Vanc Newport Eureka, SF





That is not a fun trip. you will be driving most of time. Answer to your question that plan not worth the trip along coast.




It is not Phirl who is bitter. He is just confused by your difficult itinerary planning and lack of response to our legitimate questions. We all want to give you the best advice possible, but this is a two-way street; you have to be willing to help us help you.



For example, when I asked if you were not satisfied with our previous advice, you didn%26#39;t answer. Nor did you explain why you posted on the Welches forum.



Phirl told you fairly bluntly that he didn%26#39;t think your timetable allowed for sufficient time for the coast route. There was nothing nasty or unintelligent in that advice. Only in your response to it.



I hope you have a good trip. I%26#39;m sorry our advice has not been to your satisfaction.
