The Great Outdoors

It is no secret that Northern California holds some of the most enchanting natural treasures in the entire country, and possibly the world. Stunning national parks and forests can be found seemingly around every corner, so it can be a bit of a challenge figuring out the best plan of attack when you book an RV in Norden. Donner Memorial State Park is perhaps the easiest choice to make as it is quite close to town. The park is named for the ill-fated Donner Party, a group of settlers who encountered tremendous hardships on their westward journey. There is lots of lake frontage to enjoy in the small state park, and some epic views too.

Where to Park It

Tahoe National Forest, and the whole area surrounding Norden in general, is a convenient location to rent an RV, due to the sheer number of RV parks and campgrounds available. Coachland RV Park, for instance, has a general store, a large clubhouse, a playground, lawn games like croquet and bocce, and a one-acre pet park.

City Attractions

It should not come as a surprise that a town of Norden's small size is not a nightlife hotspot full of attractions, but that shouldn’t detract prospective visitors. There might not be historic downtown areas, shopping plazas, stadiums, or art museums, but you can still find a few fun things to check out while you rent an RV in Norden. Chief among the points of interest in the area are the many ski and snowboard mountains that you can choose from all winter long. Boreal Mountain, Sugar Bowl Resort, Crystal Bowl, and Northstar Resort are all within a 20-minute drive of Norden, so it's no wonder that the town is a popular wintertime vacation spot.

Renting this trailer was a great experience top to bottom. The trailer worked perfect for our trip and everything functioned as it should. I was met for pickup and delivery by Ciara and her husband and they were both very kind and knowledgeable about the unit. Super quick and easy. A+ for both the trailer and wonderful hosts.

Easy transfer, nice van. The pop top is a little low for a big person, but still comfortable.
