DIRECTIONS TO ELEUSIS
UPDATED:
May 8, 2003
CARPOOLING:
If you have room in the car for another person, please let me know and
contact those needing rides directly. Carpooling saves gas, parking space,
and resources. To arrange, please contact Philip, Elicia, or others whom
you know are attending.
DIRECTIONS TO ELEUSIS:
Eleusis is about a five minute drive west of Middletown, 30 minute drive
north of Calistoga, and a 10 minute drive south of Harbin Hot Springs.
Plan for a good two hour trip from San Francisco if you are driving non-stop.
Factor in more buffer time if you plan to stop to eat or do some sightseeing
along the way.
Here's a map showing Eleusis' location respective to Middletown and Harbin...
FROM SAN FRANCISCO (OR THE NORTH BAY)...
- Take
101 North across the Golden Gate Bridge.
- Exit
at River Road (a few exits north of Santa Rosa).
- At
the end of the exit ramp turn right onto Mark West Springs Road. Stay
on this road for 10.1 miles. At about 5.4 miles, the road's name changes
to Porter Creek Road.
- Follow
until a T-junction. At the junction turn left (on Petrified Forest Road)
following signs to Calistoga. Stay on Petrified
Forest Road
for 4.5 miles.
- Again
follow until you reach a T-junction. Now you are on the outskirts of
Calistoga; there's a gas station on your right (note: relatively cheap
gas!). Turn left at T-junction on Foothill Blvd. Follow Foothill Blvd
for
0.8 mile.
-
Turn right on Tubbs Lane where you see the highway sign pointing to
Lakeport/ Middletown. Follow Tubbs Lane for
1.3 miles.
- Go
past the geyser on your left and then turn left at the stop sign onto
Highway 29 towards Lakeport. Follow Highway 29 for 13.6 miles.
- Follow
this road up the mountain. The road is steep and winds around many switchbacks
for about half an hour. After the road starts to level out, continue
a few more miles and watch the crossroad signs. Soon after you pass
Hildebrand Road, watch for the Twin Pines Casino on your left.
- Just
past the Casino, turn left onto Dry Creek Cutoff Road.
- Follow
Dry Creek Cutoff as it takes an immediate right, passing a vineyard
on your left for 0.6 mile until the main (paved) road turns sharply
left. (If you start to cross a rocky creekbed, you missed the left turn,
go back.) This stretch of the paved road is called Dry Creek Road. Follow
this for 0.7 mile. The first 0.4 mile is paved, the next 0.3 mile is
gravel. You will see a road called My Way on your right, with a bridge
near the intersection. This is the border of the property.
- Turn
right on My Way and cross the bridge.
- Go
about a quarter mile or less and on your left you should see cars and
a gate. Park outside the gate and walk through the gate and look for
signs of life.
- You
can unload your stuff here (others can help you with camping gear or
bringing in tools, supplies or food). After unloading we will direct
you to where you can move your car, as parking is very limited in this
area.
FROM
THE EAST BAY (OR THE BAY BRIDGE)...
- Take US 80 East.
- Cross the Benicia-Martinez Bridge and immediately exit
on Highway 29 north.
- Drive north through Vallejo, Napa, St. Helena, and
Calistoga.
- Follow directions above from Highway 29.
