Discover Indianola RV rentals for memorable road trips

Indianola is the county seat of Warren County, Iowa. It was first established in 1849, at the approximate center of the county, and was finally incorporated in 1863. The town's name was chosen from a newspaper story about a town in Texas, also named Indianola; the reasons for this decision were never recorded (although one can assume it was probably someone originally from Texas who chose the name).

The Great Outdoors

Lake Ahquabi State Park is a 770-acre preserve where you can rent boats and fish (or just enjoy some rowing), go hiking or lay out on a sandy beach to work on your tan. When you're finished, bring your catch of the day back to your travel trailer rental near Indianola for a good home cooked meal.

RV Parks

Lake Ahquabi State Park has RV sites in its campground and is located right on the lake. There are restrooms and showers, and canoe, kayak, and paddle boat rentals. There is a playground for the children but it is a little bit away from the campground. There is also a beach between the lake and campground; guests here can fish, hike and swim. The sites have electricity.

Exploring The City

Back in from the wild, Indianola has a selection of breweries and wineries waiting for you to stop by. Those with kids can check out Indianola's Tumbling Center, a sports camp that offers workshops and classes for young and younger athletes.

Isa is very professional and works easily with your needs. I rented this RV for a road trip for my sister who is terminally ill. We had all the comforts of home and in a compact yet spacious RV van. Isa was great with communication and available to answer any questions we had.
Isa thank you for your part in helping to bring my Sister so much joy and comfort.
This Ethos Entegra has all the comforts you need. Among the many that I found most satisfying
Blue tooth connection on the TV. With a freezer that kept popsicles frozen the entire time. And what else? Running water in the kitchen, as well as in the restroom. Making it nice to avoid cross-contamination. Easy to work shades and awning. Beautiful interior and lighting. Looks like the inside of a personal jet. Large windows give great views. Easy to run generator for power at any time.
The onboard back up battery power start and starlink satellite system gave me great relief knowing all the bases were covered (in case of an emergency). Extra outlets and charging ports were great as well. Driving security with a wide view camera that can be switched from mirror to camera easily with a switch. Drowsy driver alerts are one of the many safety features the RV has. Very easy to drive. Drove well through the mountains and high elevation.
Great vehicle and wonderful management.
I recommend this RV van with the strongest recommendation.
I would rent from Isa again.
The best practical thing about this RV is that you can park it almost anywhere! As you can see from our photos. We got a front row seat to everything!

Craig was amazing to work with. He was very responsive when it came to all the questions I asked and very thorough when he dropped the camper off. He worked with me when it came to drop off time and pick up time. Would definitely consider renting from him again.

It was great trip and the host was wonderful. He was in contact with me from day before to make sure correct address and time to be there. He offered service if needed but everything went good except had power issues but figured it out while on the phone with host. If I have to rent a camper again, he would be one I get in touch with again. From the time til day of he was always replying to questions and other things .
