Renting an RV lets you enjoy the flexibility of RV travel without all the costs and maintenance of ownership. With a rental, you can book the perfect rig for any trip just like you would a car or hotel. With Outdoorsy, you rent directly from the host but get the backing of programs like roadside assistance, insurance, and stellar support from real, live people 24/7.

How much are average RV rentals?

On average, you can expect to pay between $75 and $150 per night to rent most small trailers and campervans. Larger trailers and motorhomes could cost $100 to $250 per night. Renting an RV for a longer time can be even more affordable–a week or month-long rental could average out to less than $60 per day.

Are there RV rentals with unlimited mileage?

Yes! Each RV host can choose whether to offer unlimited miles on their vehicles. You’ll be able to see if unlimited mileage is an option on any listing you check out. If unlimited miles are not available, you’ll be able to see what is included with the base rate and what extra miles will cost.

Are RV rentals pet-friendly?

Many RV hosts allow pets in their rentals. Be sure to check the listing to see if it’s an option for the rig you have your eye on. You’ll be able to see if there is an extra deposit or fee for pets before you request a booking.

Do RV rentals offer delivery?

Having an RV delivered to your home or destination is a great way to simplify your trip. Many RV hosts offer delivery and setup services, usually for an extra fee or within a certain distance of their location. Each listing shows whether or not delivery is an option.

Are there RV rentals near me?

RV rentals are available all over the country! Whether you want to pick up an RV near home to set out an epic road trip or if you want to have one ready at your destination, you can search by location for any type of rig.

Renting an RV is an affordable way to get all the benefits of RV travel without the maintenance and overhead of ownership. It’s also a great way to try out the lifestyle and different types of rigs before you take the plunge and buy your own. Already own an RV? Consider renting yours out to bring in some extra income.

How many people can sleep in an RV?

Small travel trailers and campervans can usually sleep 2-4 people comfortably. Mid-size trailers and motorhomes usually sleep 4-8. Bigger rigs often sleep 6-10, some even 12!

Why choose Outdoorsy vs Craigslist or Airbnb?

Security, for one. Outdoorsy helps protect RV hosts and renters with excellent support and insurance options, and a secure platform for listings, communication, and payments. There are plenty of other reasons though, like roadside assistance, detailed listings, and a wide variety of RVs to choose from.

Experience the Sites and Scenery

It may be surrounded by inhospitable desert but the scenery of Southern California is stunning, even far away from the famous coastlines of Los Angeles and San Diego. Red Rock Canyon State Park is a prime example of magnificent desert beauty found in an excellent little park. There are almost 30,000 acres of desert nature preserves at the park, which contains hundreds of interesting wildlife types despite looking barren and devoid of life. You can hike through the area to several natural landmarks and geological formations in a location that has been used for countless Hollywood movie productions. There are two campgrounds that you may utilize when you arrive in your Barstow motorhome rental too.Lake Havasu State Park, on the Arizona-California state line, is a little farther away but an enjoyable and scenic ride through the desert with your Barstow camper rental. Lake Havasu is a popular vacation destination created by the damming of the Colorado River, one of the most important rivers in the western United States. There are numerous activities to be enjoyed at this lakefront park in the desert, although fishing, swimming, and boating seem to be the most popular. The Arroyo-Camino Interpretive Garden located at the park has a wide variety of desert flora on display and the campground on the lakefront is a fabulous place to sleep when you camp in your Barstow RV rental by owner.There are several national parks in the vicinity when you rent an RV in Barstow, so you’ll have some tough choices to make. Kings Canyon National Park and Death Valley National Park are known for their incredible canyons, gorges, and salt flats, while Sequoia National Park is one of the most widely visited parks in the entire country. Sequoia National Park is named for its mighty Sequoia trees that are among the most massive trees on Earth. The General Sherman tree, in particular, is an ancient tree larger than any other found in the world. Joshua Tree National Park is one of the most unique parks you might find during your travels, mostly consisting of desert shrubs and bizarre Joshua trees in a desert environment. There are campgrounds nestled between rock formations strewn throughout the park where guests can enjoy bouldering, rock climbing, or gazing at the heavenly night skies while keeping warm by the campfire.

Where to Park It

City Attractions

Barstow is merely a small town in the desert but it surprises most with its quaint downtown and bevy of educational museums. The Mojave River Valley Museum is a fascinating place to learn about the town and region’s history, dating back to before the arrival of the settlers when the Paiute, Chemehuevi, and Mojave natives dominated the land. There are a wealth of objects and photographs on display to paint an elaborate picture of the past.The Western American Railroad Museum also has a lot of cool stuff to see, like old, decommissioned freight trains and locomotives that once ferried goods in and out of Barstow. Route 66 Mother Road Museum pays tribute to the infamous Route 66 that has been the stuff of legends for decades. The iconic road that stretches across the United States has been mentioned in movies and songs forever and has inspired the museum where countless motorcycles, historic automobiles, and Route 66 memorabilia can be seen adorning the walls and spaces for all to see. NASA Goldstone Visitor Center is yet another educational institution housed in the Historic Harvey House, where space enthusiasts can learn about the vast deep space network of probes and spacecraft operated by the government organization.

What a gem! And what generous, thoughtful, friendly renters. This RV couldn't have been more perfect. It got us from California to Idaho and through 2 National Parks with no problems. The renters Mary and Tom have equiped it with everything you could ever need. Toilet paper, Kleenex, first aid kit, paper towels, cooking supplies, utensils and paper plates/bowls, bath towels, bedding, etc. All you need is your clothes and you are good to go. The entire Outdoorsy check in/check out is a breeze. Mary and Tom have exceptional communication. They were super responsive and available 24/7. We could never begin to thank them enough. They offer a generous milage allowance per day and have no hidden cost or fees. They accepted our 2 kitties with open arms. It was their RV and kindness that made our trip so amazing. We couldn't find anything on RVezy and this was our first time using Outdoorsy. This RV was literally the first one I came across and it was a miracle. Don't hesitate to book with Mary and Tom. They make sure their beautiful RV is sparkling clean and safe with all up to date maintenance before you head out. They really care about people making memories and having fun.

We loved the trailer and it was just the right size for the four of us. Had everything we needed. We really enjoyed the outside grill. Alfred and his wife are very helpful and accommodating.
