OUR WINTER HOME, WAYPOINT VENTURA, is nestled between the Pacific Surfliner and swanky, new condominiums which overlook the Pacific Ocean. This little slice of heaven is a great urban park with an easy walk into Ventura with its many casual dining choices; or a quick 5-minute walk to the Ventura Pier where you’ll find the best beach tacos and sunsets on the West Coast.
The park operates as both a hotel, with varied and furnished stationary vintage trailers you can book online with an E-car charger available; and a dozen sites for camping (park requirements: Airstream trailers, vintage anything, Schoolies, Sprinter van, fiberglass ie Casitas or Scamp to book). The ability to stay for several months made Waypoint a welcoming spot to spend the winter months. As fulltimers and only a short drive to Ojai, it allows us to check all those doctor, dentist and veterinary appointments off our list; but more importantly – and more fun! – to reconnect with the grandkids!
After spending the last two winters in Key West, being a ‘local’ on the West Coast also provides us time to enjoy events with our club, the Greater Los Angeles Airstream Club. It has been spectacular to join in the camaraderie and touch base with our aluminum friends, especially those who tow their Airstream to Waypoint Ventura where we are gifted with some much loved one-on-one time. If you’re rollin’ on the 101, stop by and say hi!
