Let's start with a few questions to narrow down your options.
Des Moines is the capital and most populous city in the state of Iowa, which also makes it the area’s primary cultural and economic center (it’s considered the insurance company capital of America). The city is located five and a half hours from Chicago and two hours from Cedar Rapids, Iowa’s second largest city. Thus it’s a fantastic place to explore for a few days if you’re making a road trip through the Midwest, but can also be a great stand-alone destination when you rent an RV.
Even though the metro area has expanded to over the years, much of Des Moines has retained a rustic look. The downtown area is populated with historic brick homes (albeit with several skyscrapers nearby) and quaint shops. Many of these neighborhoods are quite walkable, and the DART bus system has 26 routes throughout the city. Therefore, it might be a good idea to leave your Des Moines travel trailer rental or RV parked at its campsite if one of these bus routes passes near to it.
