The Great Outdoors
Pennsylvania is known for its large cities and dense population centers, but much of the state is dotted with countryside, wilderness, and spectacular mountains, making it a real outdoor paradise. Before you even venture off to find one of Pennsylvania's many state parks after you rent an RV, you should drop by Lancaster Country Central Park. This incredible public facility is located smack-dab in the middle of Lancaster County, benefiting all residents looking for outdoor recreation and a place to cool off in the summer. A gigantic pool serves as one of the main attractions, in addition to a few botanical gardens, a skate park, pavilions, a library, and a campground for tent-camping.Susquehannock State Park is nestled right up against the Susquehanna River, enjoying fabulous views of the water, and lots of riverfront beach area. There are several nature trails permeating the small park, perfect for hiking, mountain biking, and even horseback riding. Fishing in the river or kayaking around are also suitable ways to make the most of your Lampeter camper rental trip.French Creek State Park is yet another local natural area worth mentioning, only a short drive from Lampeter. The park has several thousand acres of lush forest, with miles of hiking and equestrian trails for those who love to trek around in nature. Depending on the time of year, hunting and fishing are commonly enjoyed activities within the park.

City Attractions
Lampeter is full of lovely landscapes, old covered bridges, and roadside produce stands operated by the Amish, and the baked goods they whip up are absolutely mouthwatering. Lampeter is still just a small community, so there isn’t much when it comes to actual attractions. The 1719 Hans Herr House is just outside of town and remains a fascinating old homage to American history. This charming museum is contained in an old house built centuries ago before the United States existed as a country. The house has the distinction of being the oldest remaining homestead in the entire county and was once used as a Mennonite meeting house. There is also a replica Native American longhouse on site and a bevy of incredible artifacts.Dutch Wonderland is nice for a change of pace, and a fun adventure for the entire family. This 44-acre wonderland has roller coasters, water slides, splash pads, fossil digging areas, fun houses, and much more. The park is great for events and birthday parties and has a slew of eateries that will keep you satisfied throughout the day.In nearby Lancaster, you can visit several other historical places if you have the time. Bring your Lampeter camper rental to the Lancaster Central Market, one of the oldest, continuously operating farmers markets in the country. The building is a prime example of Romanesque Revival architectural style, and there are hundreds of unique vendors selling artisan crafts, fresh veggies, and delicious meals inside.
I was about to give up with Outdoorsy, until I messaged Jonathan. Where other hosts had been slow to respond or completely unresponsive, I heard back from him within the hour.He was upbeat, professional, and prompt for the entirety of our interactions. We were requesting drop off, set up, and pick up from a location without water/sewer or proper electric…what I now know is called boon docking. 😊 When other hosts were reluctant to rent to us because of this, Jonathan said no problem!He coordinated seamlessly with a third party for the set up/pick up and was right on time with all of it. The camper was set up solidly and perfectly when we arrived so that all we had to do was walk in and unpack. It was so great to have everything ready to go!The camper was clean and comfortable and *fun* for our family of five to retreat to. All three of our boys have decided that a trailer or RV is on their list of things they want in their adult lives.Even when things went a bit sideways at the end with confusing charges (on Outdoorsy’s side, not Jonathan’s) he stepped in and very efficiently took care of everything.He is 10/10 host with a 10/10 camper. Highly recommend! Thanks Jonathan!
In short, we had the BEST time and are now hooked on traveling this way.Judith and Alan have created the perfect traveling nest. Having traveled cross-country numerous times, they have thought through all the little details that made our trip wonderful, simple, and organic. We enjoyed cooking on their Coleman-like stove outside on the picnic table vs using the alternative induction burner they also provided. Pots, pans, dishes, a sharp knife (so nice to have), flatware, spatula, strainer.... everything we could want and need to cook all our meals. Sleeping was heaven on earth! So comfy …. and with the back doors open to the lake, it allowed us to enjoy the harvest moon beams, its reflection on the still water, and nature's night sounds without worry thanks to the magnet screens protecting us. Below the bed in the "garage" area, Judith and Alan had chairs, starter wood, tools, a canopy we opened over the picnic table, and more..... Anything and everything our little hearts desired made our trip wonderfully memorable.The last thing I will mention is the awesome briefing Judith and Alan did regarding the van, its mechanical systems, where things are stored, tips from their experience of when and how to use the different items on the van, AND a personalized manual they created explaining all of what they covered in the briefing, just in case we forgot any of the details. We pulled away, prepared and excited to embark on our 1st van camping experience!!!!!Wish all of you the same fantastic experience!Yasmin & John
