RV Rental Phoenix, MD

A common reason to book an RV in Phoenix, MD, is to gain access to nature without foregoing creature comforts. No leaky tents, no rocky ground, and perhaps the most important reason: no mosquitoes. The nearby Loch Raven Reservoir is a popular destination. Outdoor recreational activities were once illegal, back in the 1950s, but is now welcomed although visitors are still not allowed to swim in the reservoir. Well over 20 miles of multi-use trails are shared by hikers, bikers, and horseback riders. The Loch Raven Fishing Center has a boat ramp, which is the only public access into the reservoir, and also rents out small fishing boats and canoes. There is a small boat dock, as well, but slips typically are sold out quickly. Anglers can expect to catch fish like northern pike, walleye, yellow perch, and smallmouth and largemouth bass.

The Oregon Ridge Park, near Cockeysville, is a modest 1,0000-acre park with several miles of trails. The ruins of the original iron smelting and mining operations still dot the area. Hikers are cautioned to not enter the mines. The Oregon Pool, which is actually a small lake, is open to swimmers.

Landscape photographers and nature lovers will enjoy the Gunpowder Falls State Park, near Middle River. As the name suggests, there are picturesque waterfalls. Over 120 miles of multi-use trails offer plenty of opportunities for fun activities like hiking, horseback riding, and biking. The trails wind through mature woods and open meadows, and around the perimeter of protected wildlands. The Dundee Creek, which technically qualifies as a river, has a marina and boats available for rental. The marina also has a small archery range for public use. Bring your Phoenix RV rental and make some family memories! There are a handful of campsites, and many are open to RV campers.

Even in the small town of Phoenix, street parking is frowned upon. When you rent an RV, be sure to figure out where you’ll park overnight. Bar Harbor RV Park and Marina in Abington may be an attractive option. Right on the Bush River, the marina has direct access to the Chesapeake Bay. Try your hand at fishing or crabbing.

Alternatively, the Merry Meadows Recreation Farm in Freeland maybe a fun option. Surrounded by dense woods, the large, 275-acre campground has plenty of room for the guests to stretch out. In addition to full hookups, it includes activities like a driving range, a giant swing, sports courts, and a mechanical bull.

A luxury RV rental makes it easy to explore the Maryland countryside as well as get into the heart of Baltimore. Among its many attractions, Baltimore’s National Aquarium is at the top of must-sees for many visitors. Over 20,000 fish, birds, amphibians, marine mammals, and reptiles make their home in this massive facility. The exhibits include sharks, dolphins, Australians, and Amazon habitats. Behind the scenes tours are available, and guests are able to feed and interact with some of the ambassador animals like dolphins and sharks. Over 18+ guests with PADI Open Water Diver certification can also go scuba diving in some of the aquariums (guest divers must supply their own suit and fins).

No visit to Baltimore is complete without a tour of the Inner Harbor. Once an impoverished area of the city, the Inner Harbor revitalized in the 1980s and has become a must-visit for many people. The World Trade Center in Baltimore is a popular destination. The tallest building in the city, the 27th floor offers a breathtaking panoramic view of the city from every direction. The Inner Harbor Spirit Cruises take its guests on tours of the harbor, narrating the city’s history and pointing out the many historic landmarks that are visible from the waterfront. On occasion, dolphins will join in on the fun! Camden Yard, home to the Orioles’ baseball team, is just a few minutes’ walk from the harbor. The stadium is available for tours. See the dugouts, the locker room, and the private booths.

Maryland is world-famous for its crabs. The Harborplace has several seafood restaurants that overlook the waters. Enjoy the delicious, fresh crabs with a dash of Old Bay with a glass of cold beer or wine, and watch the boats drift by on the harbor.

Whether the flavor of the day is wilderness or city, a Phoenix RV rental will make it easy to find an adventure of a lifetime.
