Following commissioning, San Juan was retained in the 13th Naval District and, throughout her brief career, operated primarily in the Puget Sound-Juan de Fuca Strait area. After the end of World War I, her services were no longer required; and, in February 1919, she was decommissioned and returned to her owner.
