Discover Auburn State Recreation Area RV rentals for memorable road trips

Auburn State Recreation Area is located on the western edge of California near the state’s border with Nevada. This 42,377-acre area was once a sought-after place for gold panning and still is thanks to its abundance of minerals. During the 1950s, a dam was to be built on the grounds, but this plan was soon abandoned due to fears of its construction causing an earthquake.

Ally & Ben were amazing hosts! They provided a thorough tour and rundown of all the systems at pickup. I had a question about the stove during the trip, and Ben answered it promptly. The travel trailer is in immaculate condition and performed well throughout our trip. It was spacious, and stocked with everything we needed for 3 days at the campsite. Towing with at least a half ton truck is recommended. Thank you Ally & Ben for making our camping experience spectacular!

We can’t speak highly enough about Carmel and this rental! She was so responsive, so thorough and truly provided everything you need to have a fabulous camping trip. As a first time RV renter, we felt set up to have a fabulous trip and couldn’t be more grateful for Carmel! Will definitely rent again!

This Airstream is a fantastic trailer! The brand is truly one of the most solid RVs I've been in. This unit is in great shape, very well maintained by the owners. The decor is excellent. The window shades close well to keep out the light. The bed is plenty long enough for me (I'm 6'-1", 185cm). The rig is very easy to pull, both the length and the aerodynamic shape help on the roads. I would love to rent this vehicle again!
