The Great Outdoors
Swarthmore is a college town, which means it's going to have some de-stressing outdoorsy options for the students that residents and visitors can enjoy as well. The campus of Swarthmore College houses the Scott Arboretum, which is open daily, and is free to visit. Offering guided tours of its stunning gardens, the arboretum is a great place to learn about various trees, shrubs, and herbaceous plants--or just wander and relax.
RV Parks
While the town itself is small and isn't home to any RV parks, you can find a place nearby to park your camper rental from Swarthmore. On the east coast, it is easy to drive a short distance and end up in a different state altogether. Not far from Swarthmore, Pennsylvania in Clarksboro, New Jersey, you'll find—the Philadelphia South/Clarksboro KOA. Welcoming long or short-term visitors, the campground offers full hookups, WIFI, cable, and a small store. For the children, it offers a pond, a bounce pad/jumping pillow, and a playground. If you have pets, take advantage of the large dog park for your pooch to stretch those RV legs and run around in.
Exploring the City
Before you leave town and take your rented RV to the big cities nearby, know that Swarthmore has plenty to see as well. Swarthmore's quaint downtown offers a variety of independent shops, busy cafes, and interesting restaurants.
