Vermont RV Rental Prices
Visitors to Vermont looking to rent RVs generally search for travel trailers. The cost of renting a travel trailer usually depends on its size. For instance, a 16-foot trailer in Burlington that sleeps three will cost $80 per night while a 29-foot trailer from South Burlington that sleeps four rents for $195 per day.
Travelers also like to rent Class C motorhomes to explore Vermont. These units are self-contained with upgraded appliances such as televisions, microwaves, kitchen ranges, and showers. However, these units are more expensive to rent. A 24-foot Class C in South Burlington that sleeps five costs about $240 per night.
How to Compare Vermont RVs For Rent
Vermont is compact but high-reward with the Green Mountains, Lake Champlain, covered bridge country, and some of the best fall foliage in North America making it a perennial Northeast favorite.
Vermont's secondary roads are narrow and often unpaved in rural areas. The scenic routes through the Northeast Kingdom, the Mad River Valley, and rural Orange County involve road surfaces and widths that favor smaller rigs. A Class C under 28 feet or a compact travel trailer handles Vermont's back roads cleanly. A 40-foot Class A works on US-2, US-4, and VT-100, but eliminates most scenic detours.
Smugglers' Notch has a hard 10-foot 10-inch clearance and no large vehicle access. VT-108 through Smugglers' Notch is closed to vehicles over 10 feet 10 inches tall, over 8 feet wide, or over 22 feet long. This is strictly enforced. If Smugglers' Notch is on your list, you need a Class B campervan or small tow vehicle — period.
Fall foliage season (late September–mid-October) is peak demand across the state. Vermont fall color is world-class and massively demanded. Every campground in the state fills for Columbus Day weekend months in advance. Book as soon as the reservation window opens — then book your RV.
A Class C or smaller is a good all-around choice for Vermont. Between the Notch restrictions, narrow forest campground loops, and secondary road widths, a mid-size Class C (under 28 feet) is the most capable rig for Vermont. You'll access more campgrounds, more scenic routes, and more covered bridge detours.
What to Know About Renting an RV in Vermont
Vermont state park campgrounds use ReserveAmerica. Groton State Forest, Elmore State Park, and Branbury State Park are the most popular. Sites open in January and fill fast for summer and fall. Groton is the largest state forest campground in the Northeast and has full hookup sites.
Smugglers' Notch State Park campground is only accessible from the Jeffersonville side. Due to the VT-108 restrictions, the campground is accessible to appropriately sized vehicles from the north (Jeffersonville) only. Do not attempt the Notch approach from Stowe in a larger vehicle.
Groton State Forest has multiple campground areas — confirm which one you are booking. New Discovery, Ricker Pond, Seyon Ranch, and Stillwater are all distinct campgrounds within Groton. Each has different site configurations and hookup availability. Read the site descriptions carefully before booking.
Spring mud season (mid-March through May) can close or damage access roads. Vermont's clay-heavy soils and freeze-thaw cycle create significant mud on unpaved campground access roads in spring. Confirm campground opening dates before planning an early-season trip.

Situated 27 miles south of Burlington, Button Bay State Park sits on a bluff above Lake Champlain, providing impressive views of the lake and the forests that crowd its shores.

Best National Parks Near Vermont
To take advantage of national parks, RV travelers must venture outside the state where three are within a day’s drive. The nearest, Acadia National Park, is located near Portland, ME, less than a four-hour drive from Rutland. Acadia has the distinction of being the oldest national park east of the Mississippi. Inside its borders, visitors find ocean beaches, peaks, forests, lakes, and rivers. Cadillac Mountain, at 1,530 feet, is the highest peak on the East Coast of the United States, and six other mountains in the park stand over 1,000 feet. Most of the area is covered with dense hardwood forest that lights up the hillsides in the fall. Fishing, hiking, biking, and horseback riding are the favorite activities that draw over three million visitors per year.
Shenandoah National Park is an eight-hour drive southwest of Rutland. It is one of the most visited parks in the national park system.

Hiking, biking, and equestrian trails lead visitors to some of the most astonishing views of forest-covered mountains, deep valleys, and big sky found in the United States.
An eight-hour drive due west from Rutland gets visitors to Cuyahoga Valley National Park. Located south of Cleveland, OH, this park is one long gorge carved by the Cuyahoga River. The steep slopes hover above the river as it and its tributaries tumble down more than 100 waterfalls. Over 125 miles of hiking trails run through the valley, visiting the waterfalls, pools of water teeming with fish, and several whitewater rapids that lend their music to the breeze gently wafting through the trees overhead.
