This year we are staying for a longer time on the coast of CA. We’re here in the south of Eureka in a little community called King Salmon. It has a reputation in Eureka as a “bad” part of town but we like it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
It’s a little man-made spit of land at the extreme south end of Eureka Bay with channels between several short streets so almost every home has a dock. There’s our RV Park and a trailer park on one edge and a little wooded knoll at the other end that is the tsunami evacuation route… you climb up about 30 feet onto the knoll! Hope we don’t need to use that! <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The houses in this area are mostly little beach houses, with lots of personality and charm. There are a few newer houses and at least one short term rental place called Shell Cottage. The house just across the street from our RV site is owned by a man who has tons of irises in his garden. He knows a lot about them as well and showed me a new iris he just got from LA that grows in swamps and water. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We choose this RV Park because it shows a large beach grass area with trails running through it and a beach and a lot of reviews mention its a great place to let dogs off-leash. The grassy area also has a lot of little flowing plants. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Every day when we walk to the beach we see clammers digging for clams, as well as other people with their dogs. Chloe likes to run with other dogs but many of them are smaller and don’t want to run with her.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Chloe loves to run in the grassy area and on the beach! Here’s a link to a video of her doing that: <\/p>\n\n\n\n
