The Great Outdoors

Camping in an RV at Clare Mar Lakes Campground means you'll have plenty of fun water activities available just steps from your campsite. You'll be able to rent boats on-site or bring your own to take out on the lake. Electric motorboats are allowed, or you can opt for a more relaxed experience with kayaks, canoes, or paddle boats. Swimming is also allowed in the lake, and it's a great way to cool off on a hot summer day. Fishing is also permitted in the lake. If you need to pick up fishing gear, head into New London or one of the other nearby towns.Another nearby destination where you can enjoy fishing and boating is Findley State Park, which is just a short drive north of the campground. Findley Lake has plenty of fishing, including bass, bluegill, crappie, sunfish, catfish, and more. You'll experience good fishing close to the shore of the lake, but taking a boat out will yield a larger variety of fish. You can rent canoes, rowboats, and kayaks at the park's marina. In addition to fishing, this state park also has hiking trails, a swimming beach, a disc golf course, and scenic picnic areas.If you enjoy nature and wildlife, you'll also want to check out the Spencer Lake Wildlife Area while motorhome camping.

Questions about RVs?

Q.
What type of RV should I choose?

Start by determining how many people are planning to travel with you. Going on a solo-journey? Choose a camper van or a teardrop trailer. Bringing the whole family along for the ride? Consider a spacious Class A or five-wheel.

You’ll also want to consider amenities. For example, if you’re planning to cook on the road, you’ll want a kitchenette. If your campground doesn’t have public restrooms, you’ll want to search RVs with bathrooms. Check out full descriptions of our models to help you decide here.

Q.
Do the RVs have bathrooms?

Yes. Class A’s, Class B’s, and Class C’s and five-Wheels typically have bathrooms. Depending on where you plan on camping, you’ll want to double-check the availability of restrooms if selecting a rig without a bathroom. Nervous about renting an RV with a bathroom? Owners can help show you how to clean the tank or will offer to do it for you for a fee.

Q.
How does check-in work?

Once an Owner approves your RV reservation, you can coordinate a time to pick up your rig or have it delivered to your doorstep or campsite. At that point, the owner will do a key exchange with you and walk you through the RV and answer any questions you might have.
