Baker Beach Apartments For Rent - Presidio, San Francisco, California

Posted by Alecia Ormsby on August 17, 2009 12:52

With a Baker Beach apartment, you have access to a mile long beach with awesome views of the Marin Headlands, the Golden Gate Bridge, and the western Presidio behind you. San Francisco apartment dwellers enjoy this beach too, as it allows a great escape on a sunny afternoon, away from the congestion of the city.
Residents of Baker Beach apartments have it great if they can ride their bike or

walk from their apartment. It can get rather crowded and congested on those perfect weather weekends, and parking, although there is a lot, may be tough. For families of San Francisco apartments, there's an historical museum called the Battery Chamberlain with cool military photographs. The Battery itself held a "disappearing gun" that was used to protect the harbor's minefields. Today, people who live in Baker Beach apartments can see a 97,000 pound cannon placed here in 1977 that can still "disappear."
The San Francisco apartment resident who is a hiker can pick up the Coastal Trail on the rocky cliff side. The upper end of the park is designated (but not officially) as a "clothes optional" section. At the east end of the beach parking lot is an area stocked with picnic tables, barbecue grills and thankfully, restrooms. It's all you could want in a San Francisco beach.
