Petaluma & Manchester – Two KOAs

by Tom (rvSeniorMoments) on June 28, 2026

We spent two days at each of these KOAs on our journey up Highway 1.

KOA to KOA Trip (Jenner is a cool town we passed through)

SAN FRANCISCO / PETALUMA KOA

Surrounded by eucalyptus trees . . .

This KOA was also surrounded by rocks . . .

Our front bumper got caught on a campground rock

The bumper damage shown above was mostly cosmetic and was “fixed” with $30 of bolts and wire from a local hardware store.

MANCHESTER KOA

It was love at first sight for Jenner on Highway 1

Highway 1 was a beautiful drive but very twisty and very slow

Manchester KOA had the largest dog area we have ever seen

The Pacific was a short drive away

The Manchester Country Market and ACE Hardware was incredible for a town of 462
