RV Rental Penns Grove, NJ

After you pick up your travel trailer rental from Penns Grove, set out on an adventure around Salem County taking in the magnificent scenery and wide open spaces which range from beach settings and inland waterways, to pitch pine lowlands and upland pine and oak forests.

The “Wild & Scenic” nationally designated Maurice River borders Salem to the east and is a great way to enjoy the surrounding woodlands and an assortment of wildlife as you paddle downstream on pristine waters. Parvin Lake is suitable for all water skill levels and is part of the beautiful Parvin State Park, located in Pittsgrove, and includes miles of biking and hiking trails, swimming, fishing, along with opportunities to rent a watercraft. You can also opt to cruise along the Salem River in a canoe or kayak, which at approximately 30 miles long is one of the largest tributaries to the Delaware River and runs through the Supawna National Wildlife Refuge, Mannington Meadows, and the Salem River Wildlife Management Area and back via a number of routes.

If you feel like a bike ride after you rent an RV here, the Salem and Cumberland Counties’ Bayshore region offers great opportunities to tour the rural countryside by bike on 52 miles of mostly flat coastal plain with a few easy climbs. This route begins and ends at Fort Mott State Park and features an abundance of natural beauty and historic sites such as the Alloways Creek Wetlands Restoration Site, Abbott’s Meadow Wildlife Management Area, Finns Point Rear Range Lighthouse, Hancock House State Historic Site and more.

Salem County features a number of campgrounds with a variety of amenities to accommodate you and your motorhome rental from Penns Grove.

One place to consider is the Philadelphia South/Clarksboro KOA, which features semi-wooded areas and a catch-and-release fishing pond, plus an activity park and camp store. This campground is located in peaceful countryside that is also conveniently close to downtown Philly, so there’s plenty of fun to be had on or near the premises. RV sites here include full hookups with cable TV with easy access to the laundry room, swimming pool, bike rentals, and an off-leash dog park for your canine companions.

You also have the option of staying in a setting like Parvin State Park, which is located between Centerton and Vineland on Route 540. If you choose to camp here, you’ll be situated in a great spot to launch a boat or cast a line at the popular Thundergust Lake, Parvin Lake, and Muddy Run. Spend a day trekking around the park’s pine or swamp hardwood forests and enjoy starry nights back at your site, which will offer basic comforts like a fire ring, picnic table, and lantern hook. Flush toilets, showers, laundry facilities, and a playground are within walking distance.

Historic attractions abound throughout this region. After you pick up your Penns Grove camper rental head to Salem City, which is a short 20-minute drive away. Swing by the Visitors Center and Salem County Historical Society to learn about the New Jersey State and National Registers of Historic Places, explore the Salem City Heritage Trail and stretch your legs on a walking tour through architecturally significant districts.

You also might want to take some time roaming galleries that feature crafts by local artists or browse specialty shops and antique stores to find that perfect souvenir. Whether you prefer an upscale meal, iconic Jersey diner, or farmers market, there are all types of places where you can sample the local fare when hunger strikes. After a day of adventuring, you can choose to unwind in the relaxed atmosphere of a tranquil winery or one of the Salem County’s five golf courses.

If at any point during your RV rental vacation in Penns Grove you’re inspired to leave the countryside for a road trip to the urban sprawl, you’ll be within easy driving distance of Philadelphia, PA, New York, Wilmington, DE, Washington, D.C., Baltimore, MD, and Atlantic City.
