Best National Parks Near Massachusetts
There are no national parks in Massachusetts, but three are within a day’s drive. The nearest is Acadia National Park, located 106 miles north of Boston near Portland, ME. The oldest national park east of the Mississippi, Acadia consists of ocean shores, peaks, forests, lakes, and rivers. It hosts the highest peak on the East Coast — Cadillac Mountain at 1,530 feet — and six other mountains over 1,000 feet. Dense forests of deciduous trees add splendor to the hillsides during the fall. Fishing, hiking, and biking are among the favorite activities that draw visitors to this park.
Shenandoah National Park is the next nearest national park to Massachusetts. It is less than an eight-hour drive to visit this park, one of the most popular parks in the system. Located in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia, the park protects over 300 square miles of mountains, deep valleys, forested hillsides, rivers, and brooks full of fish. The park offers incredible hiking and biking trails leading to amazing viewpoints.
Taking an eight-hour journey from western Massachusetts through northern New York to Cleveland gets a traveler to Cuyahoga Valley National Park. The park features a deep valley cut by the Cuyahoga River over millennia with steep sides and incredible views. Over 125 miles of trails run through the park past 100 spectacular waterfalls.

Must-see Monuments and Landmarks Near Massachusetts
The Veteran’s War Memorial appropriately ranks first on the list of landmarks in Massachusetts. It sits atop Mount Greylock, the highest point in Massachusetts. On a clear day, the view from the memorial goes for 100 miles or more. Initially intended as a salute to the veterans of WWI, the tower continues to stand in memory of all those who served the United States in combat.
Minute Man National Historical Park occupies 1,000 acres of some of the most historically significant land in American history. Re-enactments occur each year, letting visitors experience a bit of the fear, anxiety, and bravery of the inexperienced farmers and plow boys of the Continental Militia forces that took on the professional British Army.
Initially, the Old State House hosted the Massachusetts Colonial government. It was then transformed to be the capital of the new state of Massachusetts until larger structures were created to house an expanding government. In the 1800s, it served as Boston’s Town Hall before being abandoned by the government. Today, it is a reminder of the significant events that took place in the building.

Frequently Asked Questions About Renting a Motorhome Near Massachusetts
Do I maintain or service the motorhome rental during my rental period?

Are there any special driving considerations or techniques I should know when operating a motorhome rental in Massachusetts?
Yes, motorhomes are larger and heavier than most passenger vehicles, so it is important to allow for more time and space when turning, merging, or stopping. Additionally, it is recommended to drive slower than the posted speed limit and to use caution when driving in windy or wet conditions.
How do I properly level and stabilize a motorhome at my campsite or RV park?
Motorhomes typically have built-in leveling jacks or blocks that can be adjusted to ensure the RV is level and stable. Some RV parks may also provide leveling pads or blocks if needed. Discuss your campsite with the RV owner ahead of time and they can provide you guidance on stabilizing.
What kind of maintenance or upkeep do I need to perform on the interior and exterior during my rental period?
You should keep the interior clean and tidy, empty waste tanks as needed, and report any damages or malfunctions to the RVshare owner. Exterior maintenance such as checking tire pressure is also recommended.
Does my motorhome rental come with bedding, linens, or other items I would consider to be personal?
This varies by RVshare owner. Some owners may include bedding and linens, while others may require renters to bring their own. It is best to check with the owner prior to renting.
Should I bring entertainment equipment or appliances for the motorhome rental?
While some motorhomes may come equipped with entertainment options or appliances, it is always a good idea to bring your own if desired. However, be mindful of any limitations on power usage or space restrictions. Check the RV listing or ask the RV owner what kind of entertainment is included.

What fuel efficiency considerations do I need to consider when operating a motorhome rental?
Motorhomes are not typically known for their fuel efficiency, but there are steps you can take to improve gas mileage such as driving at a lower speed, avoiding excessive idling, and keeping tires properly inflated.
How do I properly operate and maintain the various systems in a motorhome rental?
The RVshare owner should provide you with detailed instructions and manuals for operating and maintaining the various systems in the motorhome. It is important to follow these instructions carefully to ensure proper use and prevent damage.
