Around half an hour's drive east of Harrisonburg, Virginia is the small town of Elkton. In the mid-1700s, a German explorer came to this wonderful landscape and realized that it was worth settling. The rich landscape provided easy access to water, plants, and animals for food. It was also excellent for growing a wide variety of crops, which helped the population slowly grow to what it is today. Two main highways intersect in the middle of the city, making it easy to reach nearby cities and attractions.

Sitting in a valley between two towering mountain ranges right next to a sparkling river, Elkton definitely has its fair share of nature. While much of the region is covered with pastures and other farmland, the trails and fishing here are nearly unbeatable. If you're looking for a place to escape into the fabulous outdoor paradise of Virginia, book an RV in Elkton and enjoy one of the best vacations you've ever been on.
