Stanford University Area -- Need Spot for Motor Home Immediately

Forums:

H E L P please:

Friend's grandson getting new kidney (just learned this morning).  She needs​ a place for ​38-ft motor home, probably 2-month min.  Will gladly pay for spot.  Grandson's family will be staying there during procedure / recuperation period.  

If anyone knows of anything, please respond.  

Thx Zoners.

Wishing them all the best chances possible. With transplant, motor home spot, long good life for all.

I wish I could help, Andy, but I don't even know anyone around there.

Judit, thx for support.

Sending {{{ healing vibes }}} and hopefully good luck in finding a spot!

It's been a while, but there always seemed to be a 1/2 dozen parked right on El Camino Real (Rt.82, if memory serves). Near the stadium, I think. Don't know about two months, but it might do in a pinch.

Best of luck all around.

 

Thx Bluestnote & FOM

Andy, it looks like there's a couple of RV parks in Redwood City: Trailer Villa and Sequoia Trailer Park

Thx Mike

Mike:  Both places, toooooooooooooooooooooo old.

Old? The places or the people who stay there?

The motor home, I'm guessing.

Yup.  Motor home age.  But looks, runs great.

Maybe there's a place on campus or Ronald McDonald house to park the RV? There are some nice coastside places with hook ups in Half Moon Bay, that's about half hour drive

 

This looks interesting and about 15 minute drive to the Hospital

 How old is your friend's kid? We are friends with a family of a 17 year old who received  a new kidney last year at Stanford. They live locally, and I'd be glad to put them in touch. 

 They had a few delays with getting the right kidney. Not an easy process. And can take much longer than expected with many bumps in the road. 

Will do,  Great suggestions.  Thx Nancy

Maybe 15??? Thx for asking them, much appreciated 

Dare I ask if there's a Wal Mart nearby? Not a fan, but I heard they let ya park overnight for free. 

Good one, Slick. They're patrolled and well-lit, and this one is about 5 miles from the Stanford campus.

Question
Can I park my RV at a Walmart store?

Answer
While we do not offer electrical service or accommodations typically necessary for RV customers, Walmart values RV travelers and considers them among our best customers. Consequently, we do permit RV parking on our store lots as we are able. Permission to park is extended by individual store managers, based on availability of parking space and local laws. Please contact management in each store to ensure accommodations before parking your RV.

Thx Slick, Mike.  Need for 2 moths or more though.

It's not just an overnight thing. I've had a homeless friend use them for extended periods. He had one of those old little Toyota Dolphins, and then used them with a '86 Land Cruiser. And according to what was posted, contacting the store manager might get him extended stay privileges.

Not the best option with no services, but it might do in a pinch temporarily.

Thanks again Slick.  Appreciated 

>Does Stanford medical Center have RV parking?

Thank you Nancy for all the great suggestions.  Appreciated
