The Mystic Seaport, the 'Museum of America and the Sea,' is a big attraction for those who visit the area. It tells the story of the country's maritime history. There is a re-created 19th century village, tall ships, a shipyard and many other exhibits to tell you all you need to know and more about shipping in the US.

There is also Olde Mistick Village to take you back in time, a quaint village with shops, restaurants and a visitor's centre.
At the other end of the entertainment spectrum, another big draw is the major casinos in the area- Foxwoods and Mohegan Sun are huge centres which offer fine dining and musical and stage shows by international headliners.

For those on the road, Strawberry Park Campground is conveniently placed for the Seaport and casinos- and is an award-winning campground and RV Park.
If you are looking go to Mystic, it is about 2 hours drive from popular RV Rental hub in Boston.
I have been General Manager of Motorhome Republic, the operators of this website, for 4 years and with the company for 6 years starting as a Sales / Account Manager. Previous roles have included account manager and software architect for a web design firm, advertising sales across multiple media and television production. I’ve been lucky enough to go Motorhoming several times in Canada, USA and New Zealand so far and grew up going on caravanning holidays with Mum and Dad. The value and freedom Motorhoming offers are its two main drawcards for me. That and the envy on the other campers’ faces when you pull into a State Park campground with no hook ups in a 31’ Class C with double slide outs, on board generator, side awning, exterior entertainment unit and smoker unit for a 10kg salmon caught earlier that day.
I have been in the Motorhome industry for the best part of 6 years and with Motorhomes Republic for the last 18 months. I previously worked for the largest Motorhome rental company in the world as the New Zealand Sales Account Manager. I’ve traveled the length and width of New Zealand in many different categories of Motorhomes, in fact I don’t think there is a main state highway I haven’t driven. The love I have for Motorhomes is one of freedom and flexibility, doing what I want when I want. If I have a hankering for a cup of coffee in a beautiful scenic spot simply stop boil and enjoy….
