Discover Gladwyne RV rentals for memorable road trips

Settled by Welsh Quakers in 1682, the town was originally known as Merion Square. Variations of “Merion” were already used in several locations, and though it’s unknown exactly when this occurred, the town changed its name to Gladwyne to avoid confusion. Even though the name vaguely sounds Welsh, it is gibberish.

The Great Outdoors

A common reason to book an RV rental is to go out and explore the outdoors. Although this corner of Pennsylvania is very suburban, there are several pockets of wilderness nearby. Wissahickon is a narrow, jagged-looking park, and yet, it has over 50 miles of trails through ravines and gorges. Explore dense woods, bright, airy meadows, and follow the winding creeks. Wissahickon Creek is stocked with trouts in springs, and bass and sunfish also swim in the creek. Over 200 species of birds visit this park annually. Opossums, deer, red foxes, turtles, and many other amphibians and reptiles are regularly sighted in this little park.

RV Parks

When renting a motorhome from Gladwyne, don’t forget to find a place to park overnight. This close to Philadelphia, options are limited. The closest option is the KOA in West Chester. In addition to full hookups for your RV, it’s very family friendly and has a number of fun activities for both children and adults alike. Hike, fish, go foraging for precious gems and fossils, and more.

Exploring the City

Even in the ‘burbs, it’s hard to escape history. Several homes in Gladwyne and surrounding towns are historic dating back to the founding of this nation. Rent a motorhome in Gladwyne and go check them out. Gladwyne was quick to establish rules preventing overdevelopment, and as a result, the area has an eclectic mix of woods, farms, Victorian-, Queen Anne-, and Tudor-style homes. Several homes, particularly in the downtown area, are historic, and have been listed on the National Register of Historic Places as a result. One of the oldest homes in town is the John Roberts’ log cabin, built in 1690, though because the owners added onto the original structure over the years, little of the original cabin is visible from the outside.
