Discover Johnson City RV rentals for memorable road trips

Looking for a destination that’s rich in beautiful scenery, lively music, history, and culture? You’re looking for Johnson City, Tennessee—gateway to one of the most breathtaking regions in the country, Appalachia. Though it’s the ninth biggest city in the state, the area maintains its small-town country feel and southern charm. Rolling hills, wide valleys, and steep mountains surround the area. The Blue Ridge Mountains lay just to the west of Johnson City and the Cherokee National Forest directly south. Johnson City was once known as “Little Chicago” during prohibition of the 1920s. It got its nickname from the locals’ affiliation with moonshining and bootlegging. People claim that Al Capone once used the town as a distribution center for the illegal liquor. You’ll be able to navigate this modern city in your rental RV, but you won’t have to! Johnson City Transit has your back, with a network that covers the whole area and buses that run often.

Charles & Merri were so helpful and explained how everything worked to us first time RV’ers. We are now pros😎 The RV was very roomy for me, my husband & son (he especially loved the bunks). Kitchen was very equipped and they even provided very comfy outdoor seating with table. We will definitely book with them again next time we are in the Tri-Cities & absolutely loved Warriors Path State Park!

The RV was perfect for our family of 5! The bunk beds were spacious and had plenty of room for two kiddos to sleep. The camper was clean and had all of the essentials (cups/plates/cutlery/cooking supplies etc). We will definitely book again!
