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.

Getting Outdoors

While culture seekers will prefer spending their time shopping and meeting new people in the cities, the park has a lot in store for outdoor enthusiasts. For starters, the 18 miles of trails meander through the rugged basin where you’ll get to see giant redwoods along with live oak and Douglas fir. One of the most scenic trails in the park is the Sequoia Nature Trail which makes its way along the Pescadero Creek. Keep a keen eye out for wildlife, and if lucky, you’ll spot some deer, raccoons, and coyotes.If you’re feeling more adventurous, try the arduous trek towards the remarkable Peters Creek. Your kids will be amazed at the sheer size of some of the trees at Portola Redwoods State Park so take them for a mile-long hike to the giant redwood grove that dates back more than 1200 years. Dress them in quality hiking boots and keep them hydrated. Since the weather can change rapidly, you don’t want to be in the middle of the woods with only a t-shirt and shorts.

Camping at Portola Redwoods State Park

While the park itself sounds exciting, wait till you experience the camping. Nothing beats the pure magic of sleeping under a redwood canopy. While the campground offers no hookups, showers and restrooms are available for campers on the ample-sized back-in sites.

I had such a incredible time using Olivia's van. this being my first van trip as well as being a solo traveler, I was very appreciative of the amenities the van had to offer to help me transition from city life to van life a bit easier. Olivia is also a fabulous host with great communication and flexibility which I appreciated as well. she was incredibly helpful, I was definitely anxious going into this trip as it's something I had never done before, and she was super sweet about it, left me a little care package for my trip and even checked in to see how things were going. the van is beautiful, clean, easy to drive, great on gas, and sitting on the roof deck watching the sun set over the vineyard I stayed on was magical. 100/10 definitely renting this van again!

This was exactly what we were looking for and the host was very accommodating with odd Pick Up and Drop Off hours.
