The Great Outdoors

Book an RV in Townsend, DE to explore the marshy outdoors. Visit during the summer to experience the humid Southern heat. Visit during the winter to experience the windy Northern cold. Bombay Hook National Wildlife Refuge is a place to check out during your outdoor adventure. The refuge is considered a quality spot for birdwatching, and is largely uncultivated because it is a refuge and not a zoo. That means the marshlands have many coastal birds, but there are also many mosquitoes. If you visit in the summer, double check to see if you have that mosquito spray packed.

Franz rv was well equipped with a lot if not even more than needed in the kitchen. Very spacious with the living room slide out. They were flexible with my pickup and drop off times. I will be renting from them again.

I had a fantastic experience renting from RatedRV! Tim was awesome to work with—super communicative, responsive, and always available for any questions. He gave me a very thorough walk-through before and after the rental, which made everything smooth and stress-free. The RV itself was perfect for our group of four, and I can officially say it converted some tent campers into RV fans! I’d 100% rent from Tim again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a great RV experience.
