Discover Melissa RV rentals for memorable road trips
Melissa is a city in Collin County, Texas, that was was settled as early as 1853 with the arrival of a post office. The town plan was laid out in 1872, at the same time as the arrival of the Houston and Texas Central Railroad. The town's economy was largely based on agriculture and the railroad was instrumental in shipping cattle, wood, hay, corn, and wheat to market. By 1900, Melissa had become an essential shipping point. The town flourished until the 1920s when two natural disasters wreaked havoc upon the town. The economy and population began to decline as a result. Today. Melissa is accessed by three major highways, State Highway 5, State Highway 121 and U.S. Route 75.

We couldn’t have asked for a better first RV experience! Loria guided us through the entire process of setting up and made sure we felt confident before hitting the road. She even gave us tips on everything from where to shop to how to handle servicing since we are considering buying our own. She truly went above and beyond, and we’re so grateful!

We had another wonderful trip with Jayson's trailer. The layout of his trailer is our favorite. There was a small leak on the bathroom handle and the batteries are having trouble working so don't expect to boondock. I am sure he will fix it. He cares about his trailer because it is well maintained. He put in a new door lock and we love the new system!
We can't wait to take his trailer out again. Do not hesitate to rent this one.
