St. Catharines is the largest city in the Niagara region and overall the sixth-largest city in Ontario. Because of this, it has all the expected attractions and amenities, yet it retains a sense of small-town charm as well as plenty of open green space for visitors and residents alike to enjoy. It is known as “The Garden City” because of its 1,000+ acres of parks, trails, and gardens.

Your RV rental near St. Catharines takes you to an area with a unique microclimate due to the bordering lakes and falls. Besides being comfortably cool all year around, these are ideal growing conditions for grapes and the area is known for its award-winning vintages and vineyards. Adults will enjoy touring and tasting at local wineries as well as a booming craft beer scene. There are also plenty of other activities that the whole family will enjoy, such as beaches, parks, recreation, special events, museums, galleries, restaurants, and shopping. The St. Catharines Transit Commission operates routes throughout the city if you prefer to leave your St. Catharines motorhome rental parked, and Amtrak and Via Rail trains also serve the St. Catharine’s train station.
