I am hoping to qualify to partipate in the national senior olympics which will be held the first two weeks in August 2009 at Stanford University. Are there any RCI timeshares within a reasonable driving distance?

Thanks for any information,

Diane
 
The short answer is NO. I think the closest timeshare properties are all in SF. It's not a bad drive if you're visiting the area or commuting to work, but for a daily commute to an event you want to enjoy I'd stay closer to Stanford.
 
Earlier int the year we were discussing options near Santa Clara and a few people recommended the St. Francis Arms in Sunnyvale. There may be properties closer to Stanford in Menlo Park, Palo Alto, Mountian View and Los Altos. If money were not a problem there is a brand new Four Seasons Hotel in Palo Alto...

Check the St. Francis Arms in Sunnyvale. Sunnyvale is adjacent to Santa Clara and it is very easy to get around the area.

My wife and I stayed at the St. Francis Arms for 11 months last year while I was consulting in the area. They are 1 and 2 BR corporate apartments with everything furnished just like a t/s resort. They have a nice pool, assigned covered parking ( free ), is very clean and well maintained, and they offer a free breakfast every morning. They rent by the night, week, and month. They are very well located in a nice area and are a short walking distance to supermarket, restaurants etc. The rent is quite reasonable.

Here is a link to the ST. Francis Arms:

That great information, kapish. We are spoiled by timeshares and St. Francis Arms looks like the answer.
