Best National Parks Near Dubuque, IA
The Indian Dunes National Park is a 15,000-acre wilderness along 15 miles of Lake Michigan's south shore. The park offers 50 miles of trails that pass through sandy dunes, woodlands, and wetlands. The "Diana of the Dunes Dare" is the most intriguing trail. The dare challenges visitors to follow the footsteps of nature-advocate Alice Mabel Gray, who lived in the dunes area alone for over nine years in the early 1900s. The trail illustrates the abrupt contrast between nature and industrialization. Dunewood Campground has 53 RV and 66 tent campsites. Water, trash, and dump services are available on a seasonal basis. See the iconic buttes and pinnacles of South Dakota's badlands at Badlands National Park. The 370 square-mile park presents a stark, alien landscape that rises abruptly out of the Great Plains. Visitors can explore the geological formations and view wildlife on established trails or self-directed treks into the wilderness. Wildlife in the area includes bison, bighorn sheep, and prairie dogs. The park has two visitor centers and two established campgrounds. You can enjoy dispersed camping nearly anywhere in the park. One of America's newest national parks is the Gateway Arch National Park in St. Louis, Missouri. The arch rises 630 feet above the Mississippi River and commemorates St. Louis' role in America's 19th-century expansion into the west. Visit the museum at the visitor center, or ride to the top of the arch. The 91-acre park includes the historic Old Courthouse (site of the Dred Scott trial), Luther Ely Smith Square, and a spectacular garden. The park also arranges riverboat cruises on the Mississippi River during the summer.

Frequently Asked Questions About Renting a Motorhome Near Dubuque, IA
Do I maintain or service the motorhome rental during my rental period?
No, it is the responsibility of the RVshare owner to ensure the motorhome is properly maintained and serviced before your rental period. Just take good care of your rental and keep it clean.
Are there any special driving considerations or techniques I should know when operating a motorhome rental in Dubuque, IA?
Yes, motorhomes are larger and heavier than most passenger vehicles, so it is important to allow for more time and space when turning, merging, or stopping. Additionally, it is recommended to drive slower than the posted speed limit and to use caution when driving in windy or wet conditions.
How do I properly level and stabilize a motorhome at my campsite or RV park?
Motorhomes typically have built-in leveling jacks or blocks that can be adjusted to ensure the RV is level and stable. Some RV parks may also provide leveling pads or blocks if needed. Discuss your campsite with the RV owner ahead of time and they can provide you guidance on stabilizing.
What kind of maintenance or upkeep do I need to perform on the interior and exterior during my rental period?
You should keep the interior clean and tidy, empty waste tanks as needed, and report any damages or malfunctions to the RVshare owner. Exterior maintenance such as checking tire pressure is also recommended.
Does my motorhome rental come with bedding, linens, or other items I would consider to be personal?
This varies by RVshare owner. Some owners may include bedding and linens, while others may require renters to bring their own. It is best to check with the owner prior to renting.
Should I bring entertainment equipment or appliances for the motorhome rental?
While some motorhomes may come equipped with entertainment options or appliances, it is always a good idea to bring your own if desired. However, be mindful of any limitations on power usage or space restrictions. Check the RV listing or ask the RV owner what kind of entertainment is included.
Are there any limitations on where I can park or store a motorhome rental in Dubuque, IA, such as zoning laws or homeowners' association regulations?
There may be restrictions on where motorhomes can be parked or stored in certain areas. It is best to research local laws and regulations or to ask the RVshare owner for guidance.
What fuel efficiency considerations do I need to consider when operating a motorhome rental?
Motorhomes are not typically known for their fuel efficiency, but there are steps you can take to improve gas mileage such as driving at a lower speed, avoiding excessive idling, and keeping tires properly inflated.
How do I properly operate and maintain the various systems in a motorhome rental?
The RVshare owner should provide you with detailed instructions and manuals for operating and maintaining the various systems in the motorhome. It is important to follow these instructions carefully to ensure proper use and prevent damage.
