Ready for some big-city vibes with a little wilderness on the side? Book an RV rental in Minneapolis, Minnesota. The Land of 10,000 Lakes state is vast and mostly rural, with some fantastic urban areas in between. Minneapolis neighbors the state’s capital, St. Paul, and these Twin Cities are rich in history, art, and vibrant culture.

Minneapolis straddles both banks of the Mississippi River, just north of the Minnesota River. The area is nearly overflowing with water; the city has creeks, wetlands, waterfalls, and more than a dozen lakes within its boundaries.

Getting around town in a rental RV may be a challenge here; parking is limited in the downtown area, and highways can get congested. Take advantage of the city's public transit system to easily access top spots around the city. Bicycle-share kiosks provide two-wheeled transportation, and visitors exploring on foot can utilize the seven-mile Minneapolis Skyway, the longest indoor pedestrian walkway system in the world. The skyway spans eight blocks and offers access to downtown restaurants and retailers.

The Great Outdoors

Natural sites are plentiful in Minneapolis. The riverfront Minnehaha Regional Park encompasses more than 190 acres in the city, with trails, bike paths, a disc golf course, a dog park, gardens, and a waterfall. Minnehaha also offers sports leagues, nature programs, and musical performances.

A Minneapolis RV camping trip isn't complete without visiting some of the sites of the Mississippi National River and Recreation Area. Experience the region's most prominent water feature in various ways. Paddle the 12-mile canoe path from the Crow River to Coon Rapids, stop and take in the views from the historic Stone Arch Bridge, and explore the river banks from the Winchell Trail.

Fort Snelling State Park is a quick drive south of the city. The park was established at the site of the historic Fort Snelling, a National Historic Landmark. Hike one of the trails around Snelling Lake or Pike Island and take in breathtaking views of the water. Have a picnic, rent a kayak, or let the kids loose on the playground. Stop by the visitor center to learn more about the park and Fort Snelling's past.

Fuel up the Minneapolis campervan rental and aim for Kinnickinnic State Park in River Falls, Wisconsin, less than an hour's drive east of the city. The park sits where the Kinnickinnic River meets the scenic St. Croix. There are plenty of RV campsites at Kinnickinnic State Park, and lots of outdoor activities to enjoy, like hiking, swimming, fishing, and boating.

An hour's drive north of Minneapolis is Wild River State Park. More than 30 miles of hiking and cross-country skiing trails run throughout the park, and equestrians can embark on around 20 miles of bridle paths. Snowshoe and ski rentals are available on-site.

RV Parks

Campgrounds and RV parks in Minneapolis are sparse, though just beyond the city limits, there are several places to set up camp. Town & Country RV Park is south of the city in the quiet suburb of Savage. This quaint Minneapolis RV park offers a calm retreat geared toward families. “Woody,” a 200-year-old cottonwood tree, welcomes campers at the park's entrance. A trail to Boiling Springs can be accessed from Town & Country RV Park, and top attractions like Valley Fair and the Mall of America are just a few miles away.

Dakotah Meadows RV Park is in nearby Prior Lake. It’s pet-friendly and has an on-site RV wash and fueling station. Campsites at Dakotah Meadows include full hookups, and a shuttle service runs from the park to nearby casinos.

Escape to nature and camp at Rice Creek Campground just 20 miles north of downtown Minneapolis. RV campsites at Rice Creek are available with electric hookups, or campers can rough it in a primitive site. Modern amenities are still on offer in this rustic campground; visitors have access to restrooms, showers, and a dump station.

Head two hours' drive north of Minneapolis to experience RV camping in the Minnesota Northwoods. Settle into one of the spacious campsites at Pete’s Retreat Family Campground.

Mille Lacs Lake is within walking distance of the campground, and local restaurants, convenience stores, and fuel stations are just a block away.

Exploring the City

Minneapolis and St. Paul form the Twin Cities metropolis. The region is brimming with historical and cultural attractions and has a fantastic restaurant scene. While you're here, set aside some time to visit some of the area's best spots.

Minneapolis has excellent eats too. Grab an iconic Jucy Lucy burger, filled with gooey American cheese or sample some walleye, a Minnesota menu staple. Book an RV rental for the Minnesota State Fair and sample some of the area's most unique tastes all in one place. Try carnival classics like funnel cakes and french fries or splurge on some delectable desserts. The Deer River Wild Rice Festival is another food fest to focus on in the area.
