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.

The Great Outdoors

Starting at the north end of the Congaree River, and continuing north along the Broad River, there are three hiking trails located right in the city. The Columbia Canal Path follows the Broad River north, from the downtown core to Riverview Terrace. It is an easy hike, with scenic views of the river and the city. The Three Rivers Greenway Trail starts across the water, from Meeting St (just before the bridge) and continues south to River Bluff Estates. This is also an easy, level trail, for those wanting scenery with light exercise.Guignard Clay Quarry Loop Trail is farther south yet, starting on Old State Road, near Cayce Riverwalk. This is a shorter trail but moderate in difficulty, for those hoping to stretch their legs while they are out from behind the steering wheel. Saluda Shoals Trail, Lake Murray Trail and Fourteen Mile Creek Trail are to the west, near Lake Murray; Gibsons Park Pond Loop is near Lexington, just south of Murray Lake. All of these are easy, level trails and you can drive your Columbia RV rental directly to Murray Lake, if you wish, to finish a nice relaxing hike with lunch at the lake.

RV Parks

About halfway between Columbia and Lexington, you can park your Columbia motorhome rental in a tree-enclosed setting at Barnyard RV Park; if you're lucky enough to be there on a weekend, they host a flea market full of interesting items.

Exploring The City

Columbia has not one but two golf courses, where you can pretend you are on a PGA tour. Into more cerebral activities? Columbia has impressive festivals and events year round, so there is no chance of arriving here and not having something to occupy your interests.In April, there is the Artista Vista, where art galleries keep their doors open much later into the evening and even display some of their works on the sidewalk outside. April is also the time of year for the Columbia International Festival, a celebration of all things multicultural. Food and song is everywhere, and local groups even perform ethnic dances for the partygoers; play your cards right and you might even be invited to join in.Columbia hosts the Deckle Edge Literary Festival in February. It also hosts not one but two marathons, for those who enjoy watching others work up a good sweat. The Run Hard Columbia Marathon happens in March, and the Governor's Cup 5K and half marathon takes place in May. Who knows, you might even want to park the camper rental in Columbia and join in the 5K run and take home a t-shirt to show to family and friends.
