RV Rentals Near Knoxville, TN

RVshare has every type of RV you need in order to plan the perfect Knoxville, TN adventure. Whether you are looking to take a scenic road trip through the Foothills Parkway or want to spend time exploring Cherokee National Forest, you'll find an RV that is perfect for you. The great selection of Class A RVs can sleep up to 10 guests and provides the most luxury. However, because these rigs are so big, they are not recommended for some of the remote roads found in the Smoky Mountains.

A Class B or Class C RV would be a better option if you want to travel to the remote campgrounds of the Great Smoky Mountains National Park or take a quick trip to Norris Dam State Park. These RVs sit on a smaller chassis, which makes them easier to navigate while driving on winding roads. Class B RVs are also a good option if you plan on spending time in an urban environment such as taking a road trip to Huntsville, AL. With these RVs, you will have an easier time finding parking close to your destination while not sacrificing too many amenities or space in the process.

Smaller RVs are also better suited for the popular campgrounds surrounding Knoxville such as Soaring Eagle Campground and Southlake RV Park. These vehicles still have many amenities such as electricity and water but offer you greater flexibility in where you can stay within each campground. You aren’t limited by the size of the RV and should have an easier time finding a campground with open spots when you are traveling in a smaller rig.
