RV rental Lyons, CO: Motorhome rentals, camper van rentals and more

Being so close to Rocky Mountain National Park, Lyons has quite a few great places to camping. One of the closest places to go camping with your Lyons travel trailer rental is LaVern M. Johnson Park in the middle of town. It has full hookups and a swimming hole on the North St. Vrain Creek. The Countryside Inn and RV Park is a short drive away, in the town of Longmont. If you want to be close to attractions and amenities, its urban location can be convenient. The park has full hookups, coin-op laundry, along with picnic tables and barbeques for each site. Another option, particularly if you’re visiting Rocky Mountain National Park, is Yogi Bear’s Jellystone Park Camp-Resort in Estes Park. It’s just outside the park’s eastern entrance and sites include full hookups (of just water and electricity if that’s what you’re looking for) and tons of activities including miniature golf, craft workshops, and karaoke events. There is a Walmart in Longmont, and with store permission, you could stay for a night or two with the Lyons motorhome rental. It may require a bit of planning to find a convenient place to fuel up near Lyons as many of the service stations are small and lack a dump station. It will probably be best to fill up somewhere along Interstate 25, about a 30-minute drive away, where the fuel bays will be larger and easier to maneuver the Lyons camper rental.

Lyons is a fairly small town and it doesn’t take too long to walk from one end to the other. However, packed into that small space are some great small town gems. Whether you’re a history lover, lover of great food and drink, or just someone looking to do a little shopping, there’s something for you to enjoy during your visit with the RV rental in Lyons. If you’re interested in the history of Lyons, check out the Lyons Redstone Museum - a mishmash of everything historical from the town’s past. Exhibits range from an antique bank teller’s cage to arrowheads to a massive used book collection that’s available for purchase. It caters more to residents as artifacts are likely connected to their own family history in some way, but out-of-town visitors are sure to enjoy the sheer variety of what’s on display here. Need a stiff drink? Stop into the distillery in town, where flights of rum, gin, and liqueurs are served, along with tours that explain how the liquors are made. Vintage video game lovers will also love the town’s arcade which is chock-full of great machines from the ‘70s, ‘80s, and ‘90s. Bring your quarters and go for the high score. Around town, there are consignment stores with wide assortments of clothes, furniture, and knick-knacks that are sure to make a unique gift.
