Experience the Sites and Scenery

When you book an RV in Elma, you might be overwhelmed by the sheer number of parks, recreation areas, forests, and other outdoor spots. There is really no wrong way to go in your Elma camper rental as each part of the state has its own unique characteristics, all just as beautiful as the next. Lake Sylvia State Park, for instance, is a smaller park the next town over from Elma. Sylvia Lake is the main feature of the tiny park and was once a lumber mill pond before being deeded to the state. Much of the park is dense rainforest, teeming with migratory birds and other woodland animals. You can fish or canoe on the open waters of Sylvia Lake and camp out along the water in your Elma motorhome rental.

Where to Park It

Finding a safe and comfortable campground to set up camp should not present too much of a challenge at all when you arrive in Elma. Travel Inn RV Resort, for instance, can be found in town and is home to amenities like basketball courts, sports fields, a large clubhouse for events, and a swimming pool.

City Attractions

It would be wise to temper your expectations when you opt to rent an RV in Elma, as there are not many things to do in town aside from dining or walking around. If you are seeking a place to check out some attractions, nearby Aberdeen is a solid place to check out. The Aberdeen Art Center is a workspace and gallery for local artists to build their own community and share their work with the world. You can look through the exhibits and galleries or buy some crafts to support the local art scene too. Driftwood Players Theater continues the artsy trend with fantastic performances by dedicated actors in an intimate theater setting. The theater has been running since the 1960s and has frequent performances of musicals and stage productions for the community to enjoy.

We had a great experience renting from Kristian and Jackie! They were both super friendly, helpful, and took the time to walk us through how to use everything and get our tow vehicle set up properly. The trailer was spotless, well-stocked, and ready to go. We took it to our property in Idaho and everything worked perfectly. Highly recommend renting from them — they made our first RV trip easy and enjoyable!

If you're thinking about a trip with Gaia, hosted by Mathias and Cecile, stop thinking about it and just do it. My recent adventure with Gaia was a huge hit. We drove from Washington all the way to central Utah and back without issue. It was so nice to sleep comfortably at night, slip out of bed in the morning and have coffee brewing in no time flat.

This RV was a perfect size for the 3 of us. We had plenty of room for all of our clothes. The RV was stocked with things needed for a camp out.
