The little town of Perryville, Maryland lies about halfway between Baltimore and Philadelphia, just east of where the Susquehanna River meets the Chesapeake Bay. It’s a great place to rent an RV as it’s just off Interstate 95 and has easy access to dozens of communities and attractions in the northeastern corner of Maryland.
To get between the two metropolises, consider taking public transportation and leaving your travel trailer rental in Perryville. The Marc PENN train runs between Washington D.C. and Perryville via Baltimore and is one of the quickest ways to get around. To reach Philadelphia when you book an RV in Perryville you’ll need to take a couple of buses or perhaps an Amtrak train, but it’s still a fairly quick process and you’ll avoid the challenges of driving through dense traffic and finding a parking spot.
Unlike the southern parts of the state near Washington D.C., the area around Perryville is quite rural and there are plenty of things to do outside if you’re so inclined. By taking a stroll along the Havre de Grace Promenade, just on the other side of the Susquehanna River, you can have a beautiful day outside without leaving the amenities of town behind. The three-quarter-mile-long boardwalk has beautiful views and is adjacent to the 36-foot-tall Concord Lighthouse, which has a museum in the former lightkeepers quarters.
Susquehanna State Park is another great spot to check and is just a short way up the river from Perryville. The nearly 3,000-acre park has over 15 miles of walking paths including a section of the Mason-Dixon long-distance trail that runs through Pennsylvania, Maryland, and Delaware. It’s also a popular spot for fishing during the summer months if you have the proper state license.
For some fun in the sun, there’s no better place in Maryland than Charlestown and the nearby Holloway Beach. There’s a campground there if you’re looking for a more rustic place to stay along with a beautiful sandy stretch on the North East River arm of the Chesapeake.
One of the closest places to camp with your RV rental near Perryville is at the Bar Harbor RV Park and Marina. All of the sites there have full hookups and Wi-Fi, plus there’s a swimming pool and also a small grocery store on site. If you’re thinking about doing activities in Baltimore, this is one of the closest parks to the city and you can catch a bus there from fairly close by. Another option is Oma’s Family Campground just over the border in Pennsylvania. It’s a comfortable campground in the heart of Amish country, surrounded by verdant fields and quiet villages. It also has full hookups, showers, and a pavilion for weekly game nights. This could be a nice place to take the family when you choose a camper rental in Perryville.
The Woodlands Camping Resort in Elkton is another option and offers access to the Chesapeake Bay along with full hookups, showers, a playground and basketball court, and a swimming pool. If you’re hoping for all the creature comforts of home, this could be a place to consider when you get an RV rental in Perryville, MD.
If nothing else, you may be able to camp at the local Walmart with your motorhome rental in Perryville. With manager permission, you can probably stay here for a few nights, but there won’t be much in the way of amenities in the parking lot.
Given Perryville’s roots on the Chesapeake Bay, it should come as no surprise that they are a number of great maritime-themed museums in the area. The Havre de Grace Maritime Museum is the largest of them and features artifacts from a variety of water-based professionals, including anglers, shipbuilders, ice harvesters, and members of the U.S. Coast Guard. There’s also the Havre de Grace Decoy Museum, which is filled with ornate duck decoys that are so beautiful that most could take up permanent residence on a stately fireplace mantel rather than luring ducks onto a pond. If you love small museums that dive deep into a single subject, this one will be right up your alley.
There’s also the Susquehanna Lock House Museum, which is located inside a beautifully restored home along the namesake river. Exhibits focus on the importance of canals in Maryland history and the hard work that went into building them. If you’re up for a short drive though, you’ll also want to check out the Upper Bay Museum at the end of the North East River. It’s a fantastic tribute to the many workers that have made their living fishing and hunting on the Chesapeake Bay
If you’re interested in doing some gambling, there is a casino just up the road from Perryville. It was the first casino to open in Maryland and is now one of the most popular places to gamble in the region.
