The city of Chicago is a wonderful vacation spot. It is situated on Lake Michigan's shores and has many world-class attractions. The best way to see Chicago and the surrounding area is by renting an RV. There are also plenty of great campgrounds to choose from. But before you go on the road, there are some things that you should know.
Most obvious is the number of excellent museums found in the city. The Chicago Art Institute is a top-notch museum, while the Chicago History Museum is a must-see. The area also has many parks. Loyola Park, which covers 21 acres, has an indoor pool, a lakefront walk trail, athletic fields and special events. You can also enjoy several annual events like the Black History Month Celebration and Easter Egg Hunt, Halloween Party, Earth Day Park Cleanup, and Halloween Party.
Renting a pop-up caravan is another fun way to explore the city. These campers are small, but they are easy to maneuver, and they can accommodate up to four people. These campers can be pulled behind a minivan and folded up quickly when not in use. They can accommodate pets and there is a section on the RVshare site for pet-friendly rentals.
Chicago RV rentals can be found in all sizes. A larger model can be ideal for a family and offer a more luxurious experience. Some motorhomes are larger and include air conditioning, a fully equipped kitchen, and a bath. You might even find a DVD/TV/bike rack. There are also smaller options. For example, the Chevy Express campervan is an affordable option. It has a kitchenette, dinette and roof tent. You can park it in most campgrounds and it will sleep four people.
The El Monte Slideout AC35 is an 32-foot motorhome powered by a Ford V10 6-8L. The vehicle is equipped with a factory cab air-conditioning system, surround sound music system, and power steering. This RV comes with a freestanding canopy, twin beds for 2 people and a portable camp stove. It is located 31-miles from Midway International Airport.
The three-dimensional Imax theatre, 3D Imax cinema and Navy Pier are just a few of the other interesting things you can see while visiting Chicago. Navy Pier boasts shops, restaurants, and a Ferris Wheel that is 150 feet long. There are also many gardens and the opportunity to ride on the historical carousel.
There are also several state parks to visit while you are in the area. There are many hiking trails in Shawnee National Forest. Starved Rock State Park has some spectacular waterfalls. In addition, you should check out the Illinois Route 66 Hall of Fame and Museum. The museum features memorabilia from the route that once ran across the nation.
