There’s something undeniably special about life on the road—the hum of the engine, the ever-changing view outside your window, and the freedom to chase the horizon at your own pace. Renting an RV opens the door to all of this and more, offering a taste of the nomadic lifestyle with the comforts of home tagging along for the ride.

At DunRoamin, we welcome both seasoned RV travelers and first-time renters looking to unplug, unwind, and explore. If you're planning to stay with us in a rental RV, this guide will help you hit the ground rolling—fully prepared, confidently packed, and ready to enjoy everything our campground has to offer.

Why Rent an RV?

You don’t have to own an RV to enjoy RV camping. Rentals have become incredibly popular, thanks to user-friendly platforms like RVshare, Outdoorsy, RVThereYet.com and Cruise America. Whether you're renting for a weekend or a month-long journey, RVs give you the unique freedom to explore without worrying about hotel reservations or constant unpacking.

Before you rent, it helps to know what kind of RV fits your needs:

Class A motorhomes offer maximum space and luxury—ideal for families or longer stays.
Class B campervans are compact and great for solo travelers or couples.
Class C motorhomes strike a balance—easy to drive but with enough space for small families.
Travel trailers and fifth wheels are towable options if you have a suitable vehicle—or you can look for delivery-ready rentals that are set up for you right at our campground.

What to Look For in a Rental RV

Not all rentals are created equal. Here are a few things to keep in mind:

Sleeping space: Does it have enough beds or bunks for your group?
Kitchen and bathroom: Most rentals include these, but it’s worth double-checking.
Hookup compatibility: Our sites offer full hookups (water, sewer, electric), so make sure your RV has the right gear to connect.
Driving comfort: If you're nervous about maneuvering a big rig, consider a Class C or even a delivered rental that’s ready when you arrive.
Campground size limits: You want to be sure your camp site accommodates your RV rental.

Pro tip: Many owners offer delivery straight to DunRoamin, so you can skip the drive and step right into your fully set-up vacation.
