Arlington, Virginia
Where to Park the RV: Travel Camp
Arlington, Virginia, sits just over the Potomac River from Washington DC, providing access to all that this district has to offer like the Smithsonian National Zoological Park, the National Art Gallery, and various historic monuments and parks.
However, Arlington holds its own with lots to see and do on its side of the river. Visit the Arlington National Cemetery, soak up some sunshine on the 17-mile Mount Vernon Trail, or even take a tour of the Pentagon.

Richmond is known nationally as a top spot for foodies and beer enthusiasts. You’ll have more than 30 craft breweries to sip your way through plus plenty of highly rated restaurants like Dutch & Co. and Umi Sushi Bistro.

Prefer to see it on foot? There’s more than 500 miles of hiking trails within the park, including a section of the Appalachian Trail. If you time your trip right, you’ll be able to hike through some of the most iconic fall foliage in the country.
Virginia Beach, VirginiaWhere to Park the RV: North Landing Beach RV Resort & Cottages

- The Virginia Beach Boardwalk which stretches three fun-packed miles.
- The Virginia Aquarium, home to more than 300 species of aquatic life.
- The Cape Henry Lighthouse, the fourth oldest lighthouse in the country.
- Miles of scenic beach area where you can swim and soak up the sun.
Take a day away from the sand and sun with a visit to Busch Gardens in Williamsburg. The short 1-hour drive to this seasonal theme park is well worth it for dozens of exciting rides, a sprawling waterpark, and a lifetime of memories to make with your family.
