We traveled down 101 south today, onto 1 south to Fort Bragg. A few things to share:
The drive - From Eureka, take 101 south to Leggett where you have a decision to make: continue along 101, then head west on the 2o to Fort Bragg, or take 1 south to Fort Bragg; we chose the latter. Route 1 was quite windy with some steep and narrow turns. If you read our post form a couple days ago where we went to Shelter Cove, the drive was similar, although this time we were towing our trailer. The road starts inland, then once you arrive to the coast, the views are phenomenal! The northern California coast consists of steep cliffs, rocks, and roaring waves.
The campground - Pomo RV Park and Campground is a very nice, well treed, clean private park. It's just south of Fort Bragg - there is a decent laundry facility, wifi (although not every site gets a great signal), full hook-ups including cable, and a nice staff. We had read many positive reviews online about this park, and so far agree.
Dinner - We ate an early dinner at the North Coast Brewing Company which was very good. They have a dining area or bar, and serve great beer and equally great food. This would be a worthwhile place to stop when in the area.
Fort Bragg itself, on a quick look, appears to be a cute coastal town, on the bigger size. There is also beach access, biking trails, and shopping. We look forward to exploring the area more tomorrow.
