Discover Fairmount Park RV rentals for memorable road trips
The historic urban feel of Philadelphia continuously draws in crowds to experience the cheesesteaks, the cobblestone-lined streets, and the infamous Rocky statue. While the city is very much alive with so much to offer residents and RV rental travelers alike, sometimes a bit of nature-filled solitude is much needed. In the many towns just outside the city, a productive countryside awaits, but within city limits, a 2,000-acre oasis sits tucked along both sides of the Schuylkill River.

Getting Outdoors
Fairmount Park may not be mountainous, but it has plenty of ground to be covered on foot, bike, or horseback. Take advantage of the miles of both paved and unpaved trails that wind and weave through the property. Along the way, enjoy sights of the river, boathouses, and other various landmarks scattered on the property. For mountain bikers, due to the maintenance needed for the tails, a riding permit is required. Otherwise, entrance to the park and its facilities are open sunrise to sunset free of charge.
Camping at Fairmount Park
Fairmount Park is more of a public use outdoor recreation space than a campground. So, unfortunately, Fairmount Park campers will have to look elsewhere to park their RVs for the night. There aren’t many options right near the park, but there are a few near Philadelphia. You may also be able to find a commercial parking lot that might allow you to park for free or at a small cost overnight. There won’t be any facilities or amenities, but at least you’d still be in the city.
Exploring the Area
At Fairmount Park, you can do more than just appreciate your surroundings. Public art is sprinkled throughout; each statue should have a description of the piece and the artist. Tours are available for the various historic mansions and houses that have been longstanding at the park. Notably, the Shofuso Japanese House and Garden is a nationally ranked garden that invites guests to learn about Japanese history and culture. Water Works, once home to the engine room of the water department before being used for a restaurant and lounge, is now a magical setting for events while offering lovely views of the Boathouse Row and the Center City skyline.

Recent RV rental reviews in Fairmount Park

We had a great experience traveling for close to 2 weeks with 3 teenagers in this RV. We explored South Dakota and Wyoming and it did great even through the Bighorn Mountains. We traveled 5000 miles in 12.5 days. Any minor issue we had, Nick was quick to respond. He also took extra time with us to explain how everything worked and sent videos that we could reference as needed.
The bed in the bedroom is comfortable and the couches and dinette gave ample space for everyone as we traveled.
It was a great experience and we would definitely consider renting here again.

Colette is a fantastic host. Communicative and caring. As for the van, book it! I’m 6’4” and was quite comfortable moving around, driving and sleeping. Very functional for the two of us on a 1000 mile journey up and down the coast of New England.
