Between the state capital of Olympia and the port city of Aberdeen, Elma is a small town in rural Washington with divine beauty. The community was first settled way back in 1853, making it one of the first non-native settlements in the Pacific Northwest.

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.

Had a great experience, Cynthia was very communicative on pickup/dropoff. The heater was not working but we were provided with a space heater that was more than adequate to heat the 18' trailer. I would rent from Cynthia and her spouse again.

Although we were Jamie’s first customers, I could have sworn he had done this a bunch of times.
He was always available to us with questions regarding the van, getting advice, and guidance
The van itself is amazing. It’s long enough that it has a great bed and enough space for cook and live in - but not too long to park basically anywhere.
This van is a beast, with the off-road wheels we could go anywhere and with the 80 liter water tank we could stay off road for weeks, filling up occasionally. The battery system is great, the solar panels add extra juice to the three 14-volt batteries which are more than enough to cook and keep the van cool/warm.
We would rent this van again in a heartbeat, driving across the PNW and Rockies.
Overall I would recommend to anyone to rent from Jamie - short or long trip like ours- for the best possible vanlife experience.
