Discover Norwich RV rentals for memorable road trips

Less than an hour's drive from Hartford, Norwich is a charming city by the confluence of Yantic, Shetucket, and Quinebaug Rivers in southeast Connecticut. Established in the mid-17th century by English colonists from Old Saybrook, "The Rose of New England" was carved out of land bought from the local Mohegan tribe led by their chief, Uncas. In time, improved landing facilities at the head of the Thames River (present-day location of downtown) enabled Norwich's shipping trade to flourish as goods were carried out from the interior to Long Island Sound and into other parts of the Atlantic seaboard and the world.

We had a great time. We took our 7th grade basketball team, the Vipers to the Great Wolf Lodge. It was a blast in the RV. Tara was very accommodating and the RV was super clean.
I would definitely recommend.

Amazing winter vanlife experience in Thing2!!! We (2 adults & dog) did a week-long snowboarding trip from CT to ME, and it was great to have the van as our basecamp & lodge. We were warm & comfortable despite freezing temps outside, and had enough space for all our gear. Michael did a great walk-through of the systems when we picked up & was responsive and helpful throughout the trip - highly recommend.
