Four big names rent RVs online, and the best RV rental website depends on how you like to travel.
Each site is weighed on three things: how many RVs you can choose from, what the protection plan covers, and the total you pay at checkout.
Outdoorsy is a peer to peer marketplace, where local owners list their own motorhomes, campervans and trailers, across the US and beyond.
RVshare is the other big marketplace.
Cruise America and El Monte RV rent from their own fleets, which suits a one way trip.
On a marketplace, each owner sets the nightly rate, so the price moves with the size of the RV you pick.
On top of the nightly rate, there is a guest service fee, a protection plan, and taxes.
Compare the full total at checkout.
Not sure of your dates? Outdoorsy gives a short window to cancel for a full refund, when the trip is far enough away.
