Top Three RV Rental Locations in Pennsylvania
Pennsylvania has many locations for RV rental options with the top three travel spots being Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, and Allentown. While Class C and Class A are the most available, travel trailers are just as well-liked and can easily be pulled behind your vehicle, truck, or SUV. Class B campers, toy haulers, and pop-ups are also found but in shorter supply. Some rentals are designed to hold up to 10 people, but a number of them only have accommodation for four. The cost of a rental can vary based on the RV model, type, and the number of people it sleeps. Many owners will also set up an RV or trailer at a local park or campground for you for a fee.
Pennsylvania RV Rental by City
Philadelphia is the largest city in Pennsylvania and is where the Declaration of Independence was originally signed. In the city, you'll find many parks and open spaces to explore as well as monuments, museums, and sculptures. Cherry Street Pier is an excellent place to enjoy spectacular views of the river.Â
When people think about Pittsburgh, their favorite sports team often comes to mind. However, sporting events are not the only thing this city has to offer vacationers. Thoughtfully developed riverfront neighborhoods provide gathering places for outdoor entertainment. Walking, biking, and rollerblading along the miles of riverfront trails are a favorite pastime for locals and visitors. Take the time to travel to Pittsburgh's countryside and enjoy whitewater rafting, country festivals, hiking, and more.Â
Allentown is the third-largest city in Pennsylvania and is the home of the Lehigh Valley Iron Pigs baseball team. The city offers an array of cultural attractions, museums, and entertainment and is filled with Pennsylvania Dutch history. Lace up your hiking boots for a hike at Little Lehigh Park. You can also fish, follow the bridle path, or play a game of disc golf at the park.
Erie is, fittingly, on Lake Erie, a peninsula with beaches and trails that curves around Presque Isle Bay. The southern shoreline of Erie is Pennsylvania's access point to the Great Lakes. The art, culture, bayfront district, shops, and vibrant downtown make this place a perfect vacation spot.
Popular State Parks in Pennsylvania
Many come to Little Buffalo State Park to cool off in the 5-foot public pool with two waterslides right along Holman Lake. The park has eight miles of trails for hiking and exploring. Camping, picnicking, and fishing are few things that help make this place popular, but the special events are what take it over the top. The yearly Old Fashioned Apple Festival in October and the Christmas walk in December are popular times to visit.
Keystone State Park has a beach for swimming, building sandcastles, and relaxing. All trails are for hiking only except for Lakeside Trail, which is open to biking. A dump station is available at the campground. The park has 1,200 acres for exploring and makes a great day trip or long-weekend stay.Â
Locust Lake State Park is nestled on the side of Locust Mountain, making it the perfect secluded hideaway. Between the two campgrounds is the 52-acre Locust Lake, where you can fish and swim at the designated beach areas.Â
Laurel Hill State Park consists of 4,062 acres of mountainous terrain in Somerset County and a 63-acre lake.

Best National Parks Near Pennsylvania
Although Pennsylvania doesn't have a national park, Shenandoah National Park in Virginia is about a four-and-a-half-hour drive from Philadelphia. The park rises above the Virginia Piedmont to its east and the Shenandoah Valley to its west with two peaks, Hawksbill and Stony Man, reaching 4,000 feet. The different kinds of weather and topography create a mix of habitats in which tens of thousands of living creatures thrive.
The park has over 500 miles of trails for exploring, like Hightop Summit, which winds up a ridge to a 3,296-foot rocky viewpoint with moderate difficulty. It's a three-mile round trip hike that generally takes about three hours. The Whiteoak Falls is another great challenging hike to cascades and waterfalls. This moderate 4.6-mile round trip hike goes to the upper falls before returning. One of the most popular travel spots inside Shenandoah National Park is Skyline Drive, which runs over 100 miles through the park. Bears roam the hollows, and brook trout populate the tumbling streams just beyond Skyline Drive.Â

The Liberty Bell, once known as the State House Bell, rang in the tower of the Pennsylvania State House to assemble lawmakers to their meetings and signaled to the townspeople that it was time for the daily reading of the news. After some hard use, the Liberty Bell cracked, and attempts were made to repair it in 1846. Unfortunately, the bell was unable to be fixed. An inscription is written near the top of the bell about liberty and the bell's history.Â
The American Philosophical Society Hall was built in 1789 and provided a central meeting place for its members. Among those members was former president Thomas Jefferson, who encouraged the American Philosophical Society outfit to explore the American continent further. Today, there are journals to validate this expedition and other exhibits of history, science, art, and Philadelphia's earlier days.
The John Coltrane House is another great place to visit in Pennsylvania if you're interested in jazz. As you approach the house, the first thing you'll see is the wheat-paste mural of the legend holding a tenor saxophone.Â
Explore the historic Eastern State Penitentiary that held notorious lawbreakers, including Slick Willie Sutton and Al Capone. Day and night tours are offered that include the penitentiary's history and a look at death row, as well as award-winning exhibits about prison today and the root causes of mass incarceration.Â
Because it's one of the oldest states and played such a fundamental role in United States history, there are a ton of Pennsylvania landmarks that you will want to take in while you're RVing across the Keystone State.
