RV rental Jacksonville, FL: Motorhome rentals, camper van rentals and more

Hanna Park's 60-acre lake offers a fitting introduction to flex your arm muscles, but if you prefer to catch the waves instead of glide peacefully on flat water, Jacksonville has 22 miles of white sand beaches to get lost in. Neptune Beach is popular among surfers, Jacksonville Beach for kitesurfers, and laidback Atlantic Beach for anglers. Also within city limits, about 13 miles northeast of downtown, you will find one of the last frontiers of coastal wetlands on the Atlantic Coast, with 6,000 years of human history to go with it. Drive your Jacksonville motorhome rental to Timucuan Ecological and Historic Preserve to witness a primeval place where the waters meet, and also to see the historic location at Fort Caroline National Memorial, where the French made their presence felt in 16th-century Florida. Territorial battles, religious struggles, and tales of exploration and survival, along with stories of the earliest contact between American Indians and Europeans, abound here. Farther out of town is the Osceola National Forest, where 21 miles of Florida's National Scenic Trail and more than 50 miles of equestrian trail await hikers and horseback riders adventurous enough to brave cypress swamps, open pine flatwoods, and sandhills. Keep your eyes peeled for wildlife as the forest is home to songbirds and a population of Florida black bear, red-cockaded woodpecker, indigo snake, gopher tortoise, and bobcats, among others. Take your Jacksonville camper rental 60 miles to the northwest to the giant, Eden-like swamp of Georgia's Okefenokee National Wildlife Refuge, where migratory birds make routine stopovers and threatened and endangered species like red-cockaded woodpecker and wood storks feel at home. It's a RAMSAR wetland (a wetland of global importance) as it's one of the planet's largest intact freshwater ecosystems teeming with amphibian populations essential to the planet's health.
