For a great mix of peaceful countryside and the life of a small town, you might want to consider getting an RV rental in Akron, Pennsylvania. Beautiful Akron is located in the heart of a mishmash of fields and neighboring towns: the city of Lancaster, with all its historical landmarks, as well as the musical city of Reading. With your RV rental in Akron, you can also easily get to the great city of Philadelphia, known for its three C’s: culture, cuisine, and colonial history.

Closer to your camper rental in Akron, you’ll find the small but very charming Brownstown, and the art and theater scenes of Ephrata are also nearby. If the views of the surrounding fields aren’t quite cutting it, you can easily get to Middle Creek Wildlife Management Area via Pennsylvania Route 272 and US Route 322 (222 is also nearby), or you can go visit the Ephrata Township Park.

Discover Akron


The Great Akron Outdoors

When arriving at Middle Creek Wildlife Management Area, you’ll be met by a dozen different trails of different length and difficulty, all winding through forests, fields, and wetlands. Some go up and down ridges and past attractions such as an old charcoal pit and a millstone quarry. Oh, and the views and wildlife are fantastic.

Another gorgeous creek for you to explore is French Creek State Park. Here you can really go crazy with all the recreation opportunities. Other than hiking and biking, there’s boating, fishing, and disc golfing - and in the winter you can have all the fun in the snow. Go swimming in the pool, admire the oak, maple, and hickory trees, and try to spot a deer or two - just make sure to bring a paddle if you’re going up the creek.

Well, what do you know, another creek! Marsh Creek State Park is easy to reach with your Akron motorhome rental, and while you can definitely have some fun in your boat or with your mountain bike, it really is the ideal place just to sit back and relax, kick your feet up, and have a lovely picnic. Your inner birder will rejoice at the chance of spotting a whole bunch of different birds - just don’t forget your binoculars in your Akron campervan rental.

RV Parks in Akron

While there are no places to park your travel trailer rental in Akron itself, you’ll have no trouble finding great parks in the nearby area. One of them is Dutch Cousin Campground, which is only 15 minutes' drive away and has full hookups, Wi-Fi, and a recreation center, and it even has a shop.

Just under 30 minutes' drive away from your luxury RV rental in Akron, you’ll find Lake in Wood Resort, with full hookups, heated swimming pools, and a café on site - and both these campgrounds celebrate the Dutch heritage of the area. If you can’t find the snacks that you’re craving, there are a handful of both grocery stores and gas stations in the town of Akron.

Exploring Akron

To really get to know the culture and heritage of the area, you might have to leave Akron, but it’s worth it. If you’re interested in how the Amish live and why they live that way, go check out the Amish Experience at Plain & Fancy Farm, where you can see the farmlands, schools, and their homes - you can even meet some of the members of the Amish community.

For the history and military buff, the American Military Edged Weaponry Museum isn’t far from that RV rental in Akron, PA, and here you can examine all sorts of knives used by the US military in wars like the World Wars and the ones in Vietnam and Korea. Have a look at pikes, swords, fencing bayonets, and knuckle and trench knives - just make sure you don’t cut yourself.

Very close to the previous attractions, you’ll be able to go on a hot air balloon ride. Choose a private or a shared tour, and take in the stunning views of Akron and the surrounding area while floating peacefully through the open air. Does it get any more relaxing than that? If the ride has made you hungry, don’t worry because there are lots of food options such as pancakes, grilled meats, and pizza in Akron.

Are you convinced that this charming town is a great place to rent an RV yet? You most likely are, so go search for an RV in Akron, and don’t forget to brush up on your Pennsylvania Dutch.
