RV rental Cherry Springs State Park, PA: Motorhome rentals, camper van rentals and more

Cherry Springs State Park is open year-round, but the state park RV campground is only open seasonally, from spring until late fall. The campground contains 30 sites at the astronomy field which can accommodate vehicles up to 20 feet long. You won't find any privacy in this campground, as the sites are somewhat close together and in a wide-open area. It's a very social campground, though, and most visitors stay busy watching the heavens all night. Campground amenities include picnic tables, potable water, and fire pits. There are no RV hookups, but a dump station is available. Vault toilets are accessible to visitors in wheelchairs. Unfortunately, pets aren’t allowed to join you while you’re camping at Cherry Springs State Park.

Potter County and the surrounding area offer a wealth of activities for visitors exploring northern Pennsylvania in a motorhome. Cherry Springs State Park hosts a wildly entertaining Woodsmen Show in early August each year, where you’ll find the lumberjack culture celebrated with contests like log rolling and block chops. If you venture outside of the park and into the rural towns, you’ll find local artisans selling beautiful work in small shops. Jewelry, pottery, paintings, woodcarvings, and stained glass will all make great souvenirs of your trip. Pennsylvania has even more beautiful parks near Cherry Springs. Lyman Run State Park, just a few minutes north, is a lovely location for swimming, boating, fishing, hunting, and RV camping. Patterson State Park is just a few minutes west and offers a rest area for hikers tackling the Susquehanna Trail. Continuing a half-hour west of Patterson State Park, you'll come across Austin Dam Memorial Park, where you can see the ruins of a dam that broke in 1911, taking the lives of 78 residents of the town of Austin. The ruins naturally formed an amphitheater, and the park hosts an annual music festival and light show during the summer. When it’s time to fill up the RV rental and continue on your journey, you can stock up on provisions along Highway 6, which runs a few miles north of the Cherry Springs State Park campground. You'll find numerous gas stations and grocery stores, but keep in mind that this is a rural area. It's a rural area with fantastic dining and drinking options, though, including steaks, craft beers, and ice cream.
