RV rental Vernon, BC: Motorhome rentals, camper van rentals and more

The town of Vernon was officially founded in the late 1890s after decades of fur trading in central British Columbia. However, at the turn of the century, railroad tracks connected the city to Vancouver and the traders started to settle down. Being only 275 miles from one of Canada’s largest cities and 70 miles from Kamloops, Vernon is a popular tourist destination, known for excellent skiing in the winter, watersports in the summer, and a charming downtown throughout the year. When you book an RV in Vernon you can explore this part of the province and do it comfortably.

Vernon has all the amenities that you would expect from a small city – good shopping, plenty of options for accommodations, and a variety of things to do when you rent an RV. However, the town is quite spread out, and although the Vernon Regional Transit System does run bus routes from the downtown area, this may not be the quickest way to get around town. However, parking isn’t too hard to come by, so driving your Vernon motorhome rental around town should be easy.

If you’re interested in venturing a little farther outside of town with your Vernon RV rental, Kelowna is just 30 miles south of Vernon and has amazing scenery. Its location at the narrowest point of Okanagan Lake makes it a popular watersports destination.
