Discover Porterville RV rentals for memorable road trips

Between Bakersfield and Fresno, California in California's San Joaquin Valley lies the mid-sized city of Porterville. The land on which Porterville sits was once thought to be useless with the coming of the first Spanish explorers, but this notion changed when gold was discovered in the region in the middle of the 19th century. The mostly agricultural area capitalized on the heavily traveled roads passing through its town to make money selling supplies to the prospectors and gold miners up in the mountains.

The Great Outdoors

When you finally head to town to pick up your Porterville RV rental, there is an endless number of parks, forests, and recreation areas you can see and make use of. Porterville benefits from being close to some of the best national forests and parks in the country. Sequoia National Forest and Sequoia National Park are two adjoining areas managed by the national park services, and they are not far from Porterville. Both are named for the majestic sequoia tree, one of the most massive tree species in the world. There are dozens of groves scattered throughout the park and forest featuring these ancient giants. There are a few thousand miles of roads and trails permeating the two nature parks, with over one and a half million acres of evergreen forest, rocky mountain tops, and strange monoliths.

RV Parks

It's easy to find a nice place to park your camper rental near Porterville, CA. Sequoia Campground & Lodge is worth looking into. The park is close to the mountains and national parks and forests, leaving campers in an advantageous position to see them. There are RV sites, tent camping spots, rental cabins, beaches along the river, a clubhouse, and a pool.

City Sightseeing

Porterville has a few historic homes and buildings, but it isn’t the liveliest big city destination for those seeking bright lights and wild nights, nor is it a place with sports teams, museums, or many other attractions. The Zalud House is one of the city’s best historical places, and one of the most complete historical homes in existence. From the structure to the furniture to the details, this home will make you feel as though you have traveled back in time. One of the best parts is that every piece of furniture in the donated home came straight from the Zalud Family, making it a complete and accurate representation of how they once lived.
