RV Rental Brighton, ON

Despite being a fairly small town, Brighton has a decent number of RV parks. Places to park your Brighton, ON motorhome rental can be roughly divided into those that are north or south of Highway 2, with many of the southern parks located near the lake shore for easy access to the beach and water sports opportunities.

North of Brighton you’ll find the Castleton Hills RV Park, Brighton 401/KOA Holiday Park, and Cedardale Campground. Castleton, while the farthest away of the three at about 20 minutes, has a swimming area, paddle boat rentals, trails for hiking, and a dog park. South of the highway is Cedar Cove Campground, Camp Barcovan Tent and RV Resort, and North Shore RV Park. North Shore has full hookups, fire pits, picnic tables, and plenty of events.

If you’re in need of any last minute provisions, there’s a Walmart Supercenter a few miles to the southeast of the downtown area. If that’s not located near your park, there’s also a grocery store a little closer to town and on its western edge.

While there’s not a terribly large number of things to do here, renting a travel trailer in Brighton can be an exciting experience as you’ll have the freedom to take in attractions that you might not have made time for on an excursion to a more touristic city.

If you’re up for a unique museum, the quirky Memory Junction Railway Museum is located inside a train station built in the 1850s and displays a range of railway-related memorabilia. If planes are more your thing, the National Air Force Museum in nearby Astra tells the story of the country’s military aviation exploits and you can even get up close and personal to the many models of planes on display. There’s also the Proctor House Museum, where you can learn about the history of Brighton and the prominent Proctor family, located inside the Proctors’ original house.

Like to see things go fast? If you’re in town with the Brighton camper rental on a Saturday in the summer, you can take in a dirt race at Brighton’s famous stock car racing oval. Also, remember how the town is most famous for its yearly Applefest? If you can’t make it to the celebration, you can always visit its most notable roadside attraction - the world’s biggest apple is just 15 minutes from town and houses a bakery. You can also climb up to the top for some great views of the surrounding landscapes.

Those wanting to enjoy nature near Brighton have an abundance of choices, but most visitors will head straight for the shores of Lake Ontario. The entrance to Presqu’ile Provincial Park is only a few minutes’ drive from town and offers opportunities for hiking, cycling, paddling, and swimming, as well as educational programs. Sandbanks Provincial Park is about an hour away near Salmon Point and will probably be a bit less crowded, while still offering a chance to enjoy nature at its finest.

Will you be bringing the kids along on this trip? They’ll love a stop at Cricklewood Farm. This scenic farm just outside of town allows you to pick produce like apples and raspberries or purchase delicious preserves and baked goods. You can also try not to get lost in their corn maze, but it’s actually rather challenging.
