Renting an RV lets you enjoy the flexibility of RV travel without all the costs and maintenance of ownership. With a rental, you can book the perfect rig for any trip just like you would a car or hotel. With Outdoorsy, you rent directly from the host but get the backing of programs like roadside assistance, insurance, and stellar support from real, live people 24/7.

How much are average RV rentals?

On average, you can expect to pay between $75 and $150 per night to rent most small trailers and campervans. Larger trailers and motorhomes could cost $100 to $250 per night. Renting an RV for a longer time can be even more affordable–a week or month-long rental could average out to less than $60 per day.

Are there RV rentals with unlimited mileage?

Yes! Each RV host can choose whether to offer unlimited miles on their vehicles. You’ll be able to see if unlimited mileage is an option on any listing you check out. If unlimited miles are not available, you’ll be able to see what is included with the base rate and what extra miles will cost.

Are RV rentals pet-friendly?

Many RV hosts allow pets in their rentals. Be sure to check the listing to see if it’s an option for the rig you have your eye on. You’ll be able to see if there is an extra deposit or fee for pets before you request a booking.

Do RV rentals offer delivery?

Having an RV delivered to your home or destination is a great way to simplify your trip. Many RV hosts offer delivery and setup services, usually for an extra fee or within a certain distance of their location. Each listing shows whether or not delivery is an option.

Are there RV rentals near me?

RV rentals are available all over the country! Whether you want to pick up an RV near home to set out an epic road trip or if you want to have one ready at your destination, you can search by location for any type of rig.

Renting an RV is an affordable way to get all the benefits of RV travel without the maintenance and overhead of ownership. It’s also a great way to try out the lifestyle and different types of rigs before you take the plunge and buy your own. Already own an RV? Consider renting yours out to bring in some extra income.

How many people can sleep in an RV?

Small travel trailers and campervans can usually sleep 2-4 people comfortably. Mid-size trailers and motorhomes usually sleep 4-8. Bigger rigs often sleep 6-10, some even 12!

Why choose Outdoorsy vs Craigslist or Airbnb?

Security, for one. Outdoorsy helps protect RV hosts and renters with excellent support and insurance options, and a secure platform for listings, communication, and payments. There are plenty of other reasons though, like roadside assistance, detailed listings, and a wide variety of RVs to choose from.

Discover Imperial RV rentals for memorable road trips

About 23 miles south of St. Louis, Imperial lies on the state line, with only the Mississippi River to its east separating it from Illinois. Originally called West Kimmswick, Imperial was part of the town founded in 1859 by St. Louis dry goods merchant Theodore Kimm. While the suburb offers little by way of tourist attractions (save the Mastodon State Historic Site), it does provide peace and quiet while remaining in close proximity to the urban bustle and cosmopolitan comforts of St. Louis. Though small, Imperial is well connected to the rest of the country: Interstate 55, which connects Chicago to Louisiana, and US Route 61, which runs from Wisconsin to Louisiana, run through it. Book an RV in Imperial today and follow where the road leads you.

Discover the Garden of the Gods and the Great River Road

Take your Imperial RV rental to the 1.5 million-acre national forest in southern Missouri named in honor of the state’s celebrated native, Mark Twain. Just an hour south near, the Mark Twain National Forest beckons adventurers of all stripes with abundant recreation opportunities. There are over 750 miles of hiking, horseback riding, mountain biking, and motorized-use trails, including parts of the Ozark Trail, that wind through it. Perennial streams where you can float a canoe or kayak year-round crisscross the forest for more than 350 miles. Parts of the forest are also designated as Wilderness and National Scenic River areas. Stay in one of the campgrounds and explore the forest for as long as you like.an hour and a half southeast by Imperial motorhome rental. Of its lush forests, rolling hills, open lands, rugged bluffs, lakes and creeks, Shawnee is most famous for its deservedly named Garden of the Gods Wilderness. Here you'll find cliffs and dramatic rock formations that have been sculpted by the elements over millions of years. The Anvil Rock, Camel Rock, and the Devil's Smoke Stack are some of its most spectacular rock formations offering unparalleled hiking and photographing opportunities.St. Louis is, of course, on the road to everywhere: the Gateway Arch is a testament to that. Today you can follow in the steps of the pioneers by aiming west along Interstate 44 as it enters northeast Oklahoma, and from there picking up US-40 (historically Route 66) as it meanders its way to the Pacific. Or take a cue from the Mississippi River and follow US Route 61, otherwise known as the Great River Road, as it snakes all the way from Wyoming, MN, all the way down to New Orleans, LA. You'll find plenty of campgrounds along the way so you can break up your journeys into bite-size adventures with your Imperial travel trailer rental.

Where to Park Your RV

While there are only mobile home parks in Imperial, there are a handful of RV parks and campgrounds to be found within a 10-mile radius of town. Expand your search to 20 miles and you'll find a range of RV parks suitable for big rigs with amenities to match. The closest Walmart store is in Arnold, about five miles north, and could provide a spot to park the Imperial rental motorhome for the night.

What is There to See in the Gateway to the West?

The Mastodon State Historic Site is Imperial's main tourist attraction. Here, scientists found solid evidence in the Kimmswick Bone Bed that the American mastodon and other now-extinct ice age animals coexisted with humans in eastern North America. Learn about how paleontologists discovered this site and how the Missouri landscape looked in the prehistoric era, and marvel at the museum displays of fossils, artifacts, and mastodon skeleton replica. If you want to see where it all began, stretch your legs on the trails, including on one that leads to the site where the bones were found.Explore the Forest Park, the Missouri Botanical Garden and the national park surrounding the Gateway Arch. Browse the displays at the City Museum, Missouri History Museum, Mildred Lane Kemper Art Museum, and the Contemporary Art Museum, then join a tour around Anheuser-Busch Brewery. Step back in time and into the Old Courthouse where the Dred Scott cases were heard, and visit the Ulysses S. Grant National Historic Site, one-time home of the 18th president of the United States.

John was a very accommodating host. His RV is well stocked with everything that you will need to have a relaxing trip. There is plenty of room for 5 people and the A/C kept us cool on the hottest of days. The rental process was smooth and it made our trip very enjoyable.

"Perfect" RV for my daughter and I!! I'm 6' 3" and always wonder about the sleeping accommodations, especially in such a small RV! As my daughter and I said many times over the weekend this little "Campy" as we liked to call it, was perfect for the two of us! It has everything you really need - oh, and be ready for campground neighbors or family members camping with you to want a tour, as everyone is curious once they see it! Would 100% rent again - Susan was the best, even checking in with us to make sure all was well during the trip!
