Here are simple directions for getting to Eleusis from the Bay
Area...
please visit us!
It is always a good idea to send an email or phone me here in the Bay
Area before visiting, just to be sure we can connect with each other when you
do visit. Of course, you can come and explore Eleusis when i am absent from the
land, but it won't be as much fun! :)
i am usually on the land mondays through wednesdays
or thursdays each week...

DIRECTIONS TO ELEUSIS
Please allow about 2
hours driving time from the Bay Area.
From 101, take the River Road
exit (a few exits north of Santa Rosa). Take a right at the bottom of the exit
onto Mark West Springs Road. Follow for 10.1 miles . ( At 5.4
miles , Mark West Springs Road becomes; no turns are required - just stay on
this same road. Watch speed limits as they will
vary.)
Follow until a T-junction. At the junction
turn left (at Petrified Forest Road) following signs to Calistoga.
Follow for 4.5 miles.
Again follow until 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. (Foothill
Blvd.) Follow for .8 miles.
Turn right
(at Tubbs Lane) where you see the highway sign to Lakeport/Middletown.
Follow for 1.3 miles.
Go past the geyser- on
left -then turn left at the stop sign onto highway 29 towards Lakeport.
Follow for 13.6 miles
.
Follow this road up the
mountain, very steep and curvy for about half an hour. After the road starts to
level out, go past Hildebrand Road. and watch for a Casino on your left.
Just
past the Casino, turn left onto Dry Creek Cutoff
Road.
Follow the road as it takes an
immediate right, passing a vineyard on your left.
Follow for .6 miles until the main (paved) road turns left (if you start
to cross a creekbed, you missed it--go
back). After about
.7 miles driving alongside Dry Creek you should see a road called My
Way on your right, where there is a first bridge. This is the border of the
property. Keep driving along the creek past the My Way road/bridge.
Drive
another .7 miles alongside the creek ( after .4 miles the pavement
ends and the last .3 miles the road is a gravel/dirt surface) and follow
the road as it turns right, crossing a bridge (this is
the second bridge on the right side of the road, not
the 'My Way' bridge.) Immediately
aftercrossing the bridge (go slow, there is a very blind curve after
the bridge!) pull over to the right and park in the space in front of the chain
gate.
Walk past the chain and follow the road on foot. Watch for the wood stakes
in the ground with yellow on top marking the way, following them toward the East
(walking back in the opposite direction you just drove on
the last part of the road alongside the creek before crossing the bridge)
until you see my car/tipi.
