Discover Folsom


The Great Outdoors

One of the first places you’ll want to visit after collecting your travel trailer rental in Folsom is John Heinz National Wildlife Refuge at Tinicum. The sanctuary was opened in 1972 on the banks of Darby Creek and is made up of a combination of freshwater tidal marshlands and non-tidal open-water habitats. This biodiverse area is home to several species of amphibians, reptiles, and mammals as well as over 80 species of birds that nest in the refuge. Migration seasons are the best time for birdwatching as over 300 species of birds have been spotted resting in the marshlands. All year round, visitors can explore a segment of Darby Creek by kayak or canoe, or visit observation decks on the designated nature trails. There are also many plant types and insects to spot while using the 10-mile network of walking trails.

Next, take your Folsom RV rental by owner northwest to Ridley Creek State Park. This is one of the most visited state parks in the area and provides a wide range of recreational activities. From spring to fall, you can get active with 13 miles of hiking trails, two multi-use biking trails, and an equestrian trail beginning at Picnic Area Eight. During the winter season, many of these trails are suitable for cross-country skiing, or you can bring a sled and make use of the park’s gentle slopes. Picnicking and wildlife spotting are popular things to do at Ridley Creek too. Great blue herons can often be seen along the water's edge while white-tailed deer, raccoons, and songbirds live within the woodlands.

For a half-day excursion with your RV rental from Folsom, you can also make a trip to Crum Woods in Swarthmore. The 200-acre woodland is one of the few remaining in Delaware County and hosts an interesting variety of flora and fauna. Passing through the center of the woods is Crum Creek which runs from north to south for 22.5 miles. Visitors can use the Leiper-Smedley Trail to explore the western banks of the creek or take a stroll on another forestry trail to Alligator Rock.

RV Parks

While touring with your RV rental near Folsom, you’ll need to find a safe place to park overnight. One of the options is Campus Park and Ride on Interstate 76. The campground is just minutes away from Philadelphia International Airport and within a 15-minute drive of downtown Philadelphia. This could be a good choice for campers who want to enjoy city attractions and nightlife. This RV park provides direct access to the 24-hour city park and ride. Other facilities include Wi-Fi, electrical hookups, and laundry facilities.

To stay somewhere more scenic, there are two KOA campgrounds in the area. Philadelphia South/Clarksboro KOA Campground on the New Jersey side of Delaware River is closer to Folsom, and on-site facilities include a swimming pool, dog run, and Wi-Fi. RV sites are equipped with cable TV and 30/50-amp hookups. Philadelphia/West Chester KOA Campground in Coatesville is closer to Ridley State Park and offers on-site bike rental, mini golf, and full or partial RV hookups.

If you don’t need any campground facilities, then you might consider spending the night in an RV-friendly Walmart. The stores typically allow RV campers to park overnight and there are stores located just outside of Glen Olden and Eddystone, or near the Interstate 476/Highway 1 junction.

Explore the City

The census-designated area of Folsom is located in Ridley Township just 20 miles from Philadelphia. The area has a busy suburban feel and passing through the town center, you won’t find too many historical sights. Instead, you can get a bite to eat at one of the many diners and restaurants on MacDade Boulevard. Options range from fast food to Thai cuisine. In Folsom, you can also find a modern fitness center and a number of supermarkets and hardware stores.

To discover a little more about art and culture in Delaware County, you might want to take your camper rental from Folsom to Rose Tree Park in Media.
