RV Rental Saint Paul, OR

The now-defunct town of Champoeg makes up the Champoeg State Heritage Area and lies between Newberg and St. Paul. Original habitats of Champoeg and the first settlers of St. Paul do have a history so you could say preserving this area is very important to Marion County. At the park, visitors can take a guided tour through the Champoeg’s past, hike well-groomed trails, and engage in some local cultural education.

St. Paul lies next to the Willamette Valley, which is bordered by the Cascade Mountains. If hiking is the name of your game, lace up those boots and find a trailhead. There’s so much Oregon wilderness that surrounds you on your RV rental trip to St. Paul that you could easily spend the entirety winding your way to every peak possible.

If bugs, dirt, and sweat aren’t your motive, that’s quite all right! You don’t need to immerse yourself in the trees to appreciate them. Nearby Dundee and Dayton have smaller urban-style parks to set the kids loose while you stroll around the paved paths. Take a break from all the driving and have a look at the panoramic views.

Your best bet for overnight accommodation in St. Paul with your travel trailer rental will be reserving a campsite within Champoeg State Heritage Area. Some sites have full hookups, and others have only electric and water. Flush toilets, hot showers, a dump station, and access to the park are all included in your stay.

If traditional camping isn’t quite what you had in mind, the surrounding Marion County is happy to step up for what St. Paul may lack in RV park options. In the surrounding towns, there are parks with all sorts of stay experiences and amenities. Live luxuriously or rustically; it’s all up to you!

Funny enough, St. Paul is known for its rodeo. The rodeo grounds host a variety of events throughout the year, but their big rodeo spectacular is always during July 4th week, something to seriously consider attending if you plan to be around St. Paul with your RV rental during this time. Watch in excitement as contestants battle to stay atop bucking bulls and broncs. Be amazed at the horsemen and women who so flawlessly rope cattle and run barrels. The lively environment will electrify your day.

The neighboring Willamette Valley is famed for its selection of vineyards and wineries. If you’re someone who enjoys a nice glass of vino with a meal or to wind down for the evening, consider booking a guided tour to the Willamette Valley wineries. Or, if you prefer to save money when you can, drive your camper rental around the area instead. Smiles, good wine, and spectacular views are guaranteed.

Now, of course, exploring outside of just your destination zone is encouraged if you have the time. The main hub of Portland is 40 minutes north. You’ll notice immediately the vibe and offerings in Portland are much different than that of St. Paul, but the people are still vibrant and friendly. Seems to be a general trend in the Beaver State.
