Eastwood, California

Eastwood is a ghost town in San Diego County, California. It was located a mile northwest of Julian, near Eastwood Creek.

History

Eastwood was a town site planned by Joseph Stancliff as a rival to Julian. His attempt failed and his town survived only in the name of Eastwood Creek and Eastwood Hill, above it to the north.
