Discover Urbana RV rentals for memorable road trips

Urbana is the county seat of Champaign County, Illinois and it was first settled under the name Big Grove in 1822. In 1833, the county of Champaign was created, and Big Grove was officially named Urbana and recognized for the first time. The new town grew quickly, adding stores, mills and the first church (in 1840). A second and third church would follow in 1855 and 1856. Urbana expected that the Chicago branch of the Illinois Central Railroad would pass through its borders, but the railroad instead bypassed the town two miles to the west, where it built a station that grew into West Urbana and then named itself Champaign. Competition spiked between the two communities, leading Urbana to tear down and rebuild a larger version of the County Courthouse in a bid to retain its status as the county seat.

We rented this RV to take my two sons on a trip out west, and it couldn’t have worked out better. We rode motorcycles through Moab, marveled at the Grand Canyon, and camped in Colorado near Grand Junction. Having the RV as our base made the whole trip easy. It was comfortable to sleep in, simple to set up, and gave us the freedom to focus on the adventure. More than anything, it gave us time together and a lifetime of memories I wouldn’t trade for anything.

Our rental was just what we needed. It helped so much for our host to drop off, set up, and pick up the RV. My only minor suggestions are to have a skillet (had pots only) and a couple of folding chairs as items available for use. We flew in so we didn’t have access to get those things. Jackson was very responsive to any questions during our trip. I would definitely recommend renting from this host.
