RV rental Pendleton, OR: Motorhome rentals, camper van rentals and more

There are many reasons one might choose to rent an RV in Oregon, but the spectacular parks and forests in the state are by far the most exciting. No matter where you find yourself in The Beaver State, Oregon is bound to impress you with places like Hat Rock State Park. Hat Rock State Park is named for Hat Rock, a large and peculiarly shaped basalt rock formation that is over twelve million years old. This delightful park has scenic vistas overlooking the Columbia River, as well as hiking trails and a campground to stay with your Pendleton motorhome rental. Right next to the park, there are a series of recreation areas along the Columbia River where you can also camp or explore. Sand Station Recreation Area and Warehouse Beach Recreation Area are both hidden gems, so staying overnight is a surefire way to get some peace and quiet. These small campgrounds have their own swimming areas and sandy beaches for a whole host of summertime activities you can take part in. Cottonwood Canyon State Park and Cottonwood Canyon Recreation Area together form a large contiguous area of public land that is ideal for outdoor fun. These conjoined parks are only two hours’ drive away when you hit the road in your Pendleton RV rental and seek out some of Oregon’s prettiest places. The two parks are separated by the meandering John Day River that cuts through the arid habitat, with lush riparian habitats and gorgeous canyons. Camping, hiking, fishing, river rafting, and swimming are all possible at Cottonwood Canyon, and there is lots of wildlife to observe and photograph if you bring your camera. Just a bit farther away from Pendleton, Mount Hood National Forest presents a can’t-miss opportunity. This incredible paradise is named for Mount Hood, a massive stratovolcano that can be seen from far away. There is nothing better than hiking to the summit of this breathtaking yet treacherous mountain, surrounded by wildflower-laden meadows and alpine lakes. If you just want to relax, there are several campgrounds where you can stay overnight with your Pendleton travel trailer rental and lots of easy hiking trails to explore.
