Discover Ottawa RV rentals for memorable road trips

We’ve all heard our neighbors to the north are friendly, like maple syrup and hockey, and live in one of the most striking and beautiful countries in the world. There’s only one way to know for sure, and that’s to go experience it for yourself! The best place to go to get a sense of Canada is the capital, Ottawa.

It is the home of Parliament Hill, where Canada’s legislature resides. The Canadian Museum of History and the National Gallery of Canada are also here, which house some of the country’s greatest works and oldest treasures. Ottawa also lies on the U.S. border and shares Lake Ontario. The city of more than a million has an easy going vibe, being one of the most welcoming and walkable cosmopolitan areas in the country. Park the RV rental in Ottawa and explore the historic ByWard Market. During the day it is host to a large farmers’ market and chic boutiques; at night, it turns into a bustling scene with hot restaurants, great pubs, and bumping nightclubs.

I want to thank Trisha and her family for renting me their "home away from home". Trisha and her family were wonderful to work with and very hospitable. They met with me several times in advance of my trip to educate me on the "ins and outs" of the vehicle. They answered my many questions promptly and were available during the trip when I had questions.

We had the best trip in this beautiful RV! The host, Marc-Andre, was extremely pleasant and helpful and made our experience effortless. We travelled from Ottawa to Cape Breton Island with a 2 and 4 year old and there was plenty of room for everyone. Car seats strapped in easily, all of the dishes, pots, pans, cutlery, and really anything you could think of, was stocked up and available for us to use. There was also SO MUCH STORAGE. We didn't need to bring suitcases as all of our clothes and things fit in the drawers and closets. 10/10 would recommend. Great family vacation - thanks again Marc-Andre.😊
