Discover Portage RV rentals for memorable road trips
Portage is a town in Wood County, Ohio, that was established in 1836; it should not be confused with Portage County, which is much farther east and unrelated. The Portage Post Office was established in 1829, and both take their name from the nearby Portage River. The word “portage” is a Native American word meaning “to carry” (early natives and even contemporary canoe buffs “portage” their canoes between water sources that are disconnected). Wood County was created in 1820, not too long before Portage, as a result of the Lower Maumee Treaty of 1817. Portage village was incorporated in 1857.

The Great Outdoors
Oak Openings Preserve Metropark consists of wetlands and vegetated dunes that alternate throughout an oak savannah ecosystem that inhabits most of the park. There are miles upon miles of nature trails running through pine and spruce tree stands. Visitors are also allowed to go mountain bike riding on hard surface trails, while horseback riders and hikers can enjoy the soft surface trails. Camping is allowed, and visitors to the park in winter can enjoy cross-country skiing. Birdwatchers can look for indigo buntings, whippoorwills, and lark sparrows, among other species.
RV Parks
There are a number of RV parks and campgrounds in the area surrounding Portage village, and some of them may have mobile homes. Your Portage camper rental is all you will need to have a relaxing and enjoyable vacation no matter where you decide to stay.
Exploring The City
There is lots to do in and around Portage, starting with the museums. One of them is dedicated to antique cars and is near U.S. 6, one of the first cross-country highways in America. The museum tour begins with a recreated 1940's Texaco gas station, continues through a working garage where additional classic cars undergo restoration, and ends in a showroom filled with antiques from the 1930s through to the '60s and some antique military vehicles. An authentic and historic working farm demonstrates what life was like during the Great Depression, and a local planetarium has an outdoor deck and puts on monthly shows about different astronomy topics. Don't forget that RV vacations are unique and should be enjoyed to the fullest; there is nothing like cruising down a highway in your Portage motorhome rental while riding high above the surrounding traffic, an experience you don't want to miss.

David was very friendly and prompt in his dropping off of the camper. The king size bed was very comfortable and I appreciated having the linens they provided. The bunk mattresses were not comfortable. Everything in the camper was in working order. It would be nice to have real silverware instead of plastic wear. The cooking utensils were more than adequate. It would also be nice to have a set of mixing bowls in the camper.
