Discover Auburn RV rentals for memorable road trips

Filled with history, dozens of interesting small towns and a wealth of outdoor recreation opportunities, Northern California is a fantastic place to rent an RV. The little community of Auburn, 30 miles north of California’s capital of Sacramento, might be one of the best towns to start your RV rental adventure. It has retained much of its small-town charm, even in the face of California’s rapid growth. Founded in 1848 as a gold mining camp on the Auburn Ravine, it became the center of California’s gold rush, as the precious metal could be easily extracted from the nearby streams. Today that history is on full display, with many of the landmarks and buildings from the period being preserved for contemporary enjoyment.

Daniel was awesome from the very beginning to the drop off after out trip. He was super accommodating with the pick up and drop off, super flexible. The van was all we were looking for, new, clean, the beds and the pop up were very nice to have. It drove fantastic even in the pouring rain. We would highly recommend Daniel for anyone's trip with a van that has everything.

Best experience!!! The host, James, excels in communications, walking you through things that you don’t know. This van is stocked! Bring your towels and personal items but other than that, this van has it. We took it to a remote bike race and we were off grid for over a week without a problem!
