The Great Outdoors

One of the best things about having an RV rental in Salem is the city's proximity to the Salem River and its vibrant ecosystem. The Salem River Wildlife Management Area is nearby and offers fun activities for the whole family. Visitors can partake in lots of water sports, including kayaking and canoeing. There's also a short 0.2-mile trek from the main road to a viewing platform overlooking Mannington Creek, the ideal place to snap some pictures or enjoy a picnic. These marshlands are also a birdwatcher's paradise, with efforts being made to preserve the endangered species in the swamp, such as bald eagles and peregrine falcons.

RV Parks

There are a few campground options scattered around when you consider an RV rental in Salem. One nearby is the Four Seasons Family Campground in Woodstown. This popular campground offers over 400 spaces complete with full hookups that have 30 and 50 amp electric. With plenty of room for your big rig, the pull-through sites here offer room for slide-outs. There are plenty of amenities, including laundry services and a restaurant, and recreational activities such as fishing and boating, with a marina next door.

Exploring the City

Salem is a large enough city that your basic needs will be taken care of when you rent an RV here. Anything which can't be found in Salem can be found in Wilmington, just a short drive across the Delaware River. One of the best excursions in Salem is Pea Patch Island located in the Delaware River. This mile-long island offers historical and natural wonders, including the old Delaware Fort and a safe nesting place for native birds.

Carefree RV is a great service. I contacted Christine when another rental fell through at the last minute. She was able to get us an RV the next day and save our trip. She was very friendly and proactive in working out all the details. I also received a full walkthrough of the RV during pick up. Return process was smooth. I highly recommend Carefree RV!

Phil was such a nice, energetic guy and a great host! He made a YouTube video explaining all parts of the RV that really helped me get an understanding of everything (as a 1st time RV-er). He gave a thorough walkthrough when I met him to pick it up, and was prompt to communicate throughout our trip. The Minnie was exactly what our family needed to figure out if we are all about the RV life, and after this trip it turns out we are more into it than we even knew!!
