RV rental Elkton, MD: Motorhome rentals, camper van rentals and more

The town’s location at the end of the Chesapeake Bay makes it a popular vacation spot so you won’t have too much trouble finding a place to camp with your RV rental near Elkton. One of the closest RV parks is Woodlands Camping Resort, which is just outside of town. The park boasts a swimming pool, basketball court, showers, a playground, and, of course, full hookups for your Elkton motorhome rental. For a rustic camping experience, take a look at Holloway Beach. Sites have electrical hookups for the Elkton camper rental, but that’s about it. The lack of amenities is offset but the natural beauty of the sandy beaches in front of the sites though. Elk Neck State Park also has quite a few sites with electrical and sewer hookups if you don’t mind staying out on the windswept peninsula. If nothing else, you can probably camp in the Elkton Walmart parking lot for a few nights with manager permission. Just be sure to top up your tanks, as you’ll need to be completely self-sufficient here.

You can also brush up on your Elkton history by visiting the Cecil County Historical Society, a small museum devoted to the many happenings in this little town over the past couple of centuries. The C & D Canal Museum is another must-see spot when you’re in the area as it highlights the importance and difficulty of constructing the Chesapeake and Delaware Canal to connect Washington DC and Baltimore with Philadelphia in the early 1800s. While the museum isn’t particularly large, it is comprehensive, with a lot of information packed into a small area. There’s also the Iron Hill Science Center in nearby Newark, which is operated by the Delaware Academy of Sciences.
