RV rental Holbrook, NY: Motorhome rentals, camper van rentals and more

Just a few miles to the northeast, Rocky Point State Pine Barrens Preserve is a unique ecosystem commonly referred to (by locals) as the Pine Barrens. It is a haven for many plant and animal species, some of which are on the endangered species list, resulting in a grass roots movement to protect and preserve the area. It takes its name from the the pitch pines that dominate the dry upland areas, even though black, scarlet and white oak are in abundance in many areas. It also contains wetland areas, such as marshes, heath bogs, and red maple and Atlantic white cedar swamps, making it a fascinating place to go for a hike. Better yet, park your motorhome rental in Holbrook in the pines and enjoy lunch while taking in the splendid views. Robert Cushman Murphy County Park is another good area for hiking and bird watching; your Holbrook camper rental is the perfect bird blind to observe them from. Visitors can also rent row boats to get a better view from the water. The park is commonly used by scientists for biological experiments and inventories, and for environmental studies. Portions of the park are available for hunting at certain times of the year; hunters should contact the NYS Department of Environmental Conservation for more information about hunting. If you’re willing to go a little further afield, an hour and a half of driving your Holbrook RV rental will bring you to Bear Mountain State Park. The mountains, lakes and forests here will make your heart soar, and you’ll find it hard to believe that you’re so close to New York City. Hike the trails, canoe the waterways and soak in the tranquility of this protected area.
