Discover Kent Falls State Park RV rentals for memorable road trips

Once known as Scatacook by the local Native Americans, which roughly means “falls many times,” Kent Falls State Park in CT was settled in the late 1700s and early 1800s. The gushing creek was used to power the local grain mills and sawmills. Over the subsequent decades, the need for water-powered mills declined, and many structures were abandoned and fell into disrepair. Upstream, the foundations of a couple of these mills are still visible. The state of Connecticut began purchasing small parcels of land in 1919 and officially established Kent Falls State Park in the early 1930s.

Getting Outdoors

Photographers, make sure the batteries are charged and SD cards are in the camera. Kent Falls is a dramatic photography subject year-round. Dropping a total of 250 feet, the largest cascade descends over 70 feet into a reflecting pool. Tall maple, oak, and other hardwood trees line the edge of the falls. In springtime, the leaves are a fresh happy green that transforms into a serene, dark shade. Autumn, the scene transforms into a classic New England landscape. The foliage turns into a blaze of red, orange, and yellow. In some dry years, the falls slow to a serene trickle, fanning out in delicate sprays. And some years, the area receives abundant rainfall, turning the falls into a gushing faucet. It’s hard to take a bad photograph.

Camping at Kent Falls State Park

A small park with just under 300 acres, there is no RV camping at Kent Falls State Park. However, there are several options nearby. Macedonia Brook State Park has a seasonal RV campground that’s open between April and September. Though it’s largely primitive, there are restrooms with pit toilets and faucets for drinking water.

Exploring the Area

Even in the rural part of Connecticut, it teems with history and charm. Renting an Airstream makes it easy to explore all the mountain towns and its attractions. Mt. Tom Tower is a local curiosity. Constructed during the Revolutionary War, it teeters atop Mount Tom. It was initially used as a lookout station, later as a fire watchtower, and today, climbing to the top is considered an accomplishment.

I had a large family gathering at my home over Thanksgiving and needed more bed space, as well as a possible gathering spot for guests with pet allergies, and Jeff's trailer fit the bill very nicely. And it worked out perfectly for us. I was able to bunk 6 guests comfortably in the trailer without anyone having to travel anywhere but my driveway. Jeff was great about bringing the trailer and setting it up and then taking it away again. We had our first cold snap of the season, so the heating system was very welcome and warmed things up very nicely and quickly at bedtime. My young adult nieces loved the feeling of doing a sleepover in their shared double bunk beds, and my senior sisters appreciated the private queen space.
All in all, Jeff's trailer helped to make this Thanksgiving a particularly wonderful and memorable one. I definitely would recommend him!

Jon was a true gentleman who went above and beyond to make sure our stay went off without a hitch. He helped us out with a few questions we had and was always there for help and assistance. The RV was perfect and very clean. I would recommend Jon to anyone and everyone.
THANKS!
