Discover Mankato RV rentals for memorable road trips

Mankato is a city in Blue Earth County, Minnesota, that was established by settlers moving west in 1852. It is also the county seat of Blue Earth County. Mankato is situated at the meeting of the Minnesota and Blue Earth Rivers; early settlers were directed to the area because of its beauty, its suitability for building structures and greeting river traffic, and because it was less prone to flooding than other areas. The area around Mankato has been a frequent setting in popular culture, appearing as a trading town in the TV series Little House on the Prairie. It also served as the heroine's hometown in the 1920 novel Main Street by Sinclair Lewis and as the basis or inspiration for the fictitious Deep Valley in the children's literature series Betsy-Tacy by author Maud Hart Lovelace.

The Great Outdoors

Minneopa State Park was established in 1905 by the state government to protect the increasingly popular park while simultaneously allowing public access. The name “Minneopa” means “water falling twice” in the Dakota language, a reference to Minneopa Creek's waterfalls. The park is home to a wide variety of bird and mammal species; guests in the park near sunset may have the opportunity to hear the coyotes howling in the distance. The park is hilly and wooded to the south and consists of prairie intermixed with marshes, lakes, and streams in the north. There are trails for hiking and biking in the summer, snowshoeing in the winter, and picnic areas, among other things.

Rented the off road camper for a bird hunting trip in montana. Pick up was simple, Patrick gave a good walk through and explanation of the trailer features. It is heavy but towed easily with a full size pickup. Ground clearance is incredible and handled the fire roads and gravel County roads with ease. I was worried about finding parking on state and blm land but I could take this trailer anywhere my truck could go. Bed pads are comfortable and had plenty of room for two. Perfect for what we were doing. Patrick was flexible with drop off and understanding that we cleaned up as well as possible after being on rocky County roads with mud and lots of dust. Overall a great experience

Great RV that fit our needs perfectly. We have a family of five with three kids under 5. We were looking for a vehicle we could take to the Black Hills that we could also sleep in. Slide out and awning offered plenty of extra room. Everything worked great. Would definitely book again.
