Known for its heritage tourism and storied past, Edenton, North Carolina is a unique town with a complex history in the state's Inner Banks region. The first arrival of European settlers in Edenton can be traced back to the 17th century when the Jamestown and Roanoke Colony first brought English explorers and colonists to the shores of the “New World.” The town would cycle through lots of different names in its early years, like “the Towne on Queen Anne’s Creek,” “Ye Towne on Mattercommack Creek,” and “the Port of Roanoke.” It was later renamed Edenton in honor of Governor Charles Eden and later served as the capital of the province of North Carolina for over 20 years.

This charming town on the Albemarle Sound is a popular tourist destination, and a well-known retirement locality due to its delightful climate and inviting atmosphere. When you book an RV in Edenton, you can see a splendid mix of homes built hundreds of years ago, fascinating lighthouses, old historic districts, and lots of other remnants from some of the country’s most defining moments like the Civil War and the Revolutionary War. When you rent an RV in Edenton, you can drive to places like Raleigh, Greenville, and the fantastic Outer Banks barriers islands on the Atlantic Ocean that welcome legions of visitors each year to see their fabulous white sand beaches.

The Great Outdoors

From the majestic mountains of the Appalachian Mountains in the west to the delightful shores of the Atlantic Ocean in the east, North Carolina has a diverse blend of outdoor areas, campgrounds, forests, parks, and other natural areas that you can tour when you pick up your Edenton motorhome rental. Merchants Millpond State Park can be found with a short drive north, with important swamp, creek, and pond ecosystems. The park is great for canoeing and kayaking but beware of the resident alligators.

If you want to take a trip to the Outer Banks, Jockey's Ridge State Park can be found on a barrier island in the Atlantic Ocean, which you can reach by bringing your Edenton camper rental over a bridge. Jockey's Ridge State Park is a fabulous sight to behold in Nags Head, with rich vernal pools, towering dunes, and gorgeous views of the ocean, especially at sunrise. Hang gliding from the top of these dunes is one way to get the most out of your visit, and there is a fantastic museum on-site that teaches guests about shipwrecks, pirates, natural history, and other facts about the park.

Croatan National Forest is the largest forest near Edenton, with just over 150,000 acres. There are four wilderness areas inside the large forest, with hiking trails to traverse and hundreds of miles of waterways to explore by canoe and or kayak. You can hike through virgin longleaf pine forests, trek along the major waterways of North Carolina, or camp at one of the forest's campgrounds in the comfort of your Edenton motorhome rental.
