RV rental Prophetstown State Park, IN: Motorhome rentals, camper van rentals and more

Although a relatively young state park, its landscapes have been carved by thousands of years of glacial activity, leaving a unique area with plenty of opportunities for outdoor activities. Hiking is by far the most popular way to explore Prophetstown State Park. There are over ten miles of trails to choose from that wind past the Tippecanoe and Wabash Rivers and through acres of prairie land. The trails cater for a variety of ability levels, including a relatively easy-going two-mile-long trail that begins from the Meadow View picnic area. Suitable for families with small children or just those who are looking for a leisurely stroll, this loop trail allows walkers to spot a variety of flora such as wild cherry trees, colorful wild roses, and the vibrant black-eyed Susan vines. For a slightly more challenging hike, take trail three that leads walkers along the riverbanks, through floodplain prairies and end with stunning vistas over Prophetstown State Park. Within the 2,200 acres of the state park are a replica of a 1920s farm and Native American Village, which provides a good few hours of educational fun for the family. Spanning across 125 acres, this farm aims to show visitors how life was in the 1920s as the significant transition began from animal to machine power. Visitors are encouraged to tend to the garden. Explore here between Spring and Fall to watch the plowing, planting, and harvesting of the farm, all completed with antique tractors. Best of all, admission is included in the State Park entry fee, so popping by will be at no extra cost to you! After a hard day wandering around the area, head to the Aquatic Center that can also be found within the park. Featuring a variety of fun slides, a lazy river float area, body flume, and water sports activity area, there is space for both children and adults to relax. Open from Memorial Day through to Labor Day, and equipped with changing rooms and hot showers, this is the perfect summer holiday activity!
