Discover Moraine Hills RV rentals for memorable road trips

Moraine Hills is an outdoor recreation area near the city of McHenry in the state of Illinois. Much of the area was created by glaciers that filled the area thousands of years ago, leaving behind boulders and other rocky debris. The debris is known as "moraine,” after which the park was named. It was opened to the public in 1976 after taking five years to fully cultivate; the park is centered around Lake Defiance, a glacial lake that is still largely undisturbed and natural as there has been almost no development around it.

Getting Outdoors

Once you have arrived, you'll have your choice of numerous activities such as hiking and fishing. The trails can be used for mountain biking as well as hiking and will take you through a variety of landscapes, all eye-catching and breath-taking. While you're enjoying the trails, make sure you pay attention to the plant life you encounter, as some of the plants you'll find here are not only beautiful but rare as well (it may be your only chance to observe them). The trails are almost all covered in crushed limestone except for one that is paved, making them easy to follow. The park is open year-round and in the winter, you can cross-country ski on the trails. Camping near Moraine Hills will give you the added bonus of being able to retire to warmth and comfort after you've finished skiing for the day.

Camping near Moraine Hills

The park doesn't have any camping facilities on-site, though there are some campgrounds near Moraine Hills. Fish Lake Beach Camping Resort has RV campsites for rent by the day or month; staying here grants you access to the lakeside beach and all of the park's amenities. This includes a sand volleyball court and fishing or boating on the lake; rowboats, kayaks, and paddleboards can be rented at the concessions area, which sells coffee and ice cream.

Exploring the Area

Wonder Lake is a small village that takes its name from the lake it is adjacent to; although small in size, it is a charming community and a good source for charter tours of the area. One of the local tour companies rents canoes and kayaks and will retrieve them (and you) once you're finished for the day. The town has a handful of dining establishments, which include a pub restaurant and a pizzeria; for a wider selection of venues, there are more restaurants within a short traveling distance.

Mercedes and her husband were so friendly and helpful! This was our first experience with Outdoorsy and using an RV of any kind, and Mercedes was very responsive while making the initial plans with the van. She answered all of my many questions and made sure I knew everything I needed to know. I felt very prepared for something so new!

I had the pleasure of renting Mike’s van for a trip to Brown County. The van has a great set up for road/mountain biking trips. I was able to store my XL mountain bike inside for the travel.

We had such a wonderful experience renting this camper van for the weekend! The van was clean, comfortable, and had everything we needed for a fun and easy trip. It drove great and made our getaway so enjoyable. Even more importantly, Samantha and Jim were absolutely amazing, so kind, helpful, and easy to work with. They went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed. We would definitely rent from them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a great camper van adventure!
