During your Stay at SSU

Public transportation is available from campus. The SMART Train is about 1 mile from SSU and connects to downtown Santa Rosa up north and south through key destinations like Petaluma and Sausalito. Participants can travel to San Francisco and the Bay Area via public transit on their free day or rent a car for a 45-minute drive to visit in the evening. Take the SMART train to Larkspur and catch a ferry to San Francisco’s famous Fisherman’s Wharf with a view of Alcatraz on the way!

We recommend renting a car to make the most of the area.
