The Great Outdoors

Shawnee’s biggest outdoor attraction is Shawnee Mission Park - one of the most visited parks in Kansas. This 1,600-acre park has miles of walking and biking trails, a small lake with a boat ramp, and an off-leash dog area, and during the summer, visitors can attend the Theatre in the Park, which hosts community performances of popular musicals. If you’d rather spend some time along the Kansas River, head to the Mill Creek Streamway Park, which has over 17 miles of trails along the Kansas River and Mill Creek. Then, if you’re driving into Kansas City, Missouri, you should check out Kaw Point Park in Kansas City, Kansas. This urban park sits at the intersection of the Kansas and Missouri Rivers, offering wooded trails and historical information about the Lewis and Clark expedition.

RV Parks

Although there are not many RV parks in Shawnee proper, you have plenty of options around the area for setting up camp with the Shawnee rental motorhome. If you want to stay as close to Shawnee as possible, check out the Walnut Grove RV Park in Merriam. This full-service RV park has amenities from Google Fiber Wi-Fi to an on-site general store, making it a nice home base for exploring Shawnee.

Exploring the City

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">After hiking along the Kansas River or boating in Shawnee Mission Park, you can enjoy spending a night in this active suburb or head to downtown Kansas City for a night on the town. If you’re traveling with kids, check out the interactive Wonderscope Children’s Museum or the Sky Zone Trampoline Park. History buffs will enjoy Shawnee Town 1929, an interactive exhibit with live interpreters and period buildings, and if you visit on the weekend after Memorial Day, you can partake in the Old Shawnee Days Festival. True urban explorers, however, will head to the heart of Kansas City. If you like to shop, stop by the Country Club Plaza for a delightful mix of chain retailers and unique boutiques as well as some of the city’s famous fountains, and you can then head to the city’s Power and Light District for live music and drinks. Kansas City is also home to the only World War I museum in the country. However, if you do head downtown, keep in mind that parking in the heart of KC is notoriously difficult, so you may want to leave your Shawnee RV rental safely parked at your campsite.</span></p>

Recent RV rental reviews in Shawnee

Robert C.

August, 2025

We had an excellent experience with our RV rental through Anthony and Debra. The vehicle was spotless, well-maintained, and fully stocked with everything we needed for a smooth and enjoyable trip. Debra did a fantastic job walking me through all the features and explaining how to use the RV, which made driving and setting up at campsite simple and stress-free. Customer service was outstanding—friendly, responsive, and truly committed to making sure we had a wonderful experience. The RV ran perfectly the entire time and gave us the freedom to relax and enjoy our trip. My wife and I took our five kids along, and the RV was spacious enough to keep everyone comfortable with plenty of room for sleeping 7 people. We’ll definitely rent again from Anthony and Debra and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a fun RV adventure. This is truly one family vacation we will remember for a lifetime!

RV was as described and well stocked with supplies to make the trip easier. The weight distribution & anti-sway hitch made towing very easy and having tools onboard should the need arise was a great piece of mind. Jacob was great to work with and quick to respond to messages. Would rent from him again.
