RV rental Yelm, WA: Motorhome rentals, camper van rentals and more

The sleepy little bedroom community of Yelm lies on the outskirts of Washington’s capital between Olympia and Tacoma. Yelm was previously occupied by the Nisqually native people before the settlers came, and the name Yelm is said to mean “heatwave from the sun” in the indigenous language. Considered one of the fastest growing cities in the Evergreen State, Yelm has humble beginnings as a tiny settlement turned agricultural hub. After the arrival of the Northern Pacific Railway in 1873, the town really began to come to life and in 1924, it was finally incorporated.
