Stay on the Delaware River by booking a luxury RV rental to New Castle, DE. This city has settlement roots beginning in 1651. The area switched hands of ownership five times (among the Netherlands, Sweden, and England) before declaring their own independence in 1777. History is at the heart of New Castle and they invite everyone who enters to come to learn about it while they enjoy the area.

Its location along the Delaware River is an important one. There is a 16-mile portage between the Delaware River and the Chesapeake Bay that serves as a short cut for cargo ships delivering goods.

You won’t have to take a boat though, load up the family and drive your motorhome rental from New Castle around to see this exciting port city for yourself.
