Getting Outdoors

For an accessible trail, try the Healthy Heart Trail that’s a dusty stone path. The forest also includes a part of the popular Bay Circuit Trail.

Recent RV rental reviews in Harold Parker State Forest

Eryn S.

December, 2025

We rented Casita for the second time for a recent trip to Virginia Beach, and it was just as incredible as we remembered, maybe even better! The van is spotless, comfortable, and thoughtfully outfitted with everything we needed for a smooth, stress-free adventure. It drives beautifully, has plenty of storage, and made both the journey and the destination so much more enjoyable.
The owners are fantastic to work with, responsive, friendly, and clearly take great care of the van. We honestly can’t imagine renting anything else for our trips. Already excited to book it again! Highly recommend!

Excellent van for a drive up the Maine Coast. The shower and toilet were a huge plus. Everything we needed was on board!
