The short version

Book Escape Campervans for most US van trips if you can live without plumbing: its vans run $69 to $149 per day with bedding and a stove included. Roadsurfer costs more, from $115 per night, but its US models add a wet bath, unlimited miles and a free second driver. Outdoorsy and RVshare have the biggest choice, with RVshare's Class B campervans averaging $100 to $350 a night and Outdoorsy charging renters a service fee of up to 20%. Travellers Autobarn suits drivers under 25 with no young driver fee and unlimited miles, Indie Campers is strongest on one-way routes from 15 North American cities, and El Monte RV rents a Class B van with a wet bath. JUCY now rents only in New Zealand and Australia, and Cruise America rents compact RVs rather than true vans.

Short answer

Escape Campervans is the best camper van rental site for couples on a budget in 2026: its vans typically cost $69 to $149 per day with 150 free miles daily and 24/7 counterless airport pickup. Roadsurfer suits travelers who want a van with a bathroom, from $115 per night excluding fees, and Outdoorsy and RVshare suit renters who want the most choice from private owners, as of November 2026. Pick Travellers Autobarn if you are under 25, or JUCY for New Zealand and Australia.

This list is for renters comparing camper van rental sites in the US on price, vehicle quality and where you can pick up. It mixes fleet companies, which own their vans, with peer-to-peer marketplaces, where private owners set prices and rules. We compared documented features, published prices, mileage terms, cancellation rules and pickup locations, using each company's own pages as shown on November 13, 2026. We did not rent the vans. Scores weigh quality at 40%, experience at 25% and value at 35%. Quality covers the vans, what is included and location coverage; experience covers booking, pickup and flexibility; value weighs the nightly price against mileage and add-on costs. Prices change with season and dates, so treat the figures as starting points and compare the checkout total.

    Escape Campervans

    A US campervan rental company that rents converted minivans from 14 airport hubs with no rental counter.

    Price

    Typically $69 to $149 per day depending on location, season and trip length

    Quoted from the Escape Campervans pricing page on November 13, 2026: Our Campervans typically cost between $69 to $149 per day depending on location, season and trip length.

    Escape Campervans takes the top spot because it publishes the clearest low price of any company here: its FAQ says vans typically cost $69 to $149 per day. Each rental includes 150 free miles per day, extra miles cost $0.35, and unlimited miles cost $20 per day. The vans are Chrysler Pacifica, Voyager or Dodge Caravan minivans with a 48 by 72 inch memory foam bed, linens, a stove and cookware, so there is little to add at checkout. Pickup works 24/7 with no counter near 14 airport hubs from Anchorage to Miami, and one-way trips are possible for a fee. The trade-off is space and comfort: the vans sleep two and have no plumbing, so you rely on campground restrictions and public showers. Minimum rentals run 3 to 5 days, and the newer Voyager vans are the only ones allowed into Canada. Collision cover carries a $750 deductible.

    What it does well

    • +Lowest published daily range on this list at $69 to $149
    • +You can use your own insurance, subject to approval
    • +Full refund up to 7 days before the trip

    Where it falls short

    • −No plumbing: no built-in kitchen, toilet or shower
    • −Sleeps 2 only, so it does not suit families of four
    • −Minimum rental of 3 days in winter and 5 days in summer

    Price

    North American models start at $115 per night, excluding fees

    Quoted from the Roadsurfer pricing page on November 13, 2026: Starting at $115 / night Excluding fees

    Roadsurfer suits renters who want a van that is a real small RV. Its North American fleet includes the Liberty Lodge, a Sprinter-style Class B that seats 4, sleeps 4 and has a wet bath with shower and toilet, and the Family Freedom, a Thor Four Winds 22E Class C that sleeps 5. Models start at $115 per night excluding fees on the US site, and the Winnebago Revel based Horizon Hopper starts at $149. Unlimited miles, a free second driver, basic camping gear, basic coverage and 24/7 roadside assistance are listed as included, which narrows the gap with cheaper vans that charge for miles. Booking is flexible on dates but not on place: you can extend or move your trip in your account, yet pickup location and model are fixed once booked. Cancellation refunds depend on whether you bought Flex protection, so read the rental terms before paying the first half of the 50/50 payment.

    What it does well

    • +Several US models have a wet bath with shower and toilet and hot water
    • +Over 10,000 camper vans and RVs across about 100 locations worldwide
    • +Dates can be extended or moved from the customer account

    Where it falls short

    • −North American models start at $115 per night before fees, above Escape's range
    • −Pickup location and model cannot be changed after booking
    • −Refunds on cancellation depend on the booking terms and whether you added Flex protection

    Price

    Nightly rates set by each owner; renters pay a service fee of up to 20%

    Quoted from the Outdoorsy pricing page on November 13, 2026: Up to a 20% service fee will be charged to the RV renter for each rental booked.

    Outdoorsy is the strongest marketplace pick for choice. Its homepage shows thousands of local rentals, including 2,834 in Los Angeles and 6,292 across California, and a camper van filter sits next to trailers and motorhomes. Because private owners set nightly rates, prices range widely, and its national park pages list rentals from $45 a night. The cost to watch is the service fee: Outdoorsy's fee page says up to 20% is charged to the renter on each booking, separate from the 20% to 25% fee owners pay. That makes the headline nightly rate less useful than the checkout total, so compare the final price, not the listing card. Rules on mileage, generator use, cleaning and cancellations differ by owner, and so do vehicle age and upkeep. It is the right site when you want a van in a town that fleet companies do not serve, or a specific layout.

    What it does well

    • +Far more vehicles and towns than any fleet company
    • +Owners set prices, so off-season deals are common
    • +Delivery to a campsite is available on some listings

    Where it falls short

    • −Up to 20% service fee on top of the nightly rate
    • −Mileage, cleaning and cancellation rules vary by owner

    Class B campervans average $100 to $350 a night, set by owners

    Quoted from the RVshare pricing page on November 13, 2026: Class A motorhomes cost between $150 and $450 a night, Class B campervans $100 to $350, Class C RVs $100 to $400, and travel trailers $50 to $200.

    RVshare is the other large owner marketplace and edges close to Outdoorsy. It says it connects travelers with more than 100,000 RV rentals, has booked over 5 million nights and is available in all 50 states. Its own cost guide puts Class B campervans at $100 to $350 a night on average and notes that peak season costs 30 to 50% more, while weekly or monthly rentals are usually 15 to 25% cheaper. Every booking includes secure payment, identity verification and 24/7 roadside assistance, and insurance and trip protection plans are offered at checkout. Many owners deliver to campgrounds or festivals and set the RV up. As with any marketplace, vehicle condition and rules on mileage, cleaning and cancellation come from the owner, so read each listing. A renter service fee is charged on top of the nightly rate, so compare totals at checkout.

    What it does well

    • +Published average of $100 to $350 a night for Class B campervans
    • +Free trip planning help from RV Rental Advisors
    • +Large supply in all 50 states

    Where it falls short

    • −Owner rules on miles, fees and cancellation differ by listing

    No US price was listed when we checked. See the Travellers Autobarn pricing page.

    Travellers Autobarn is a good fit for long trips across the West because every rental includes free unlimited miles and it charges no young driver fee, with rentals from age 21. It has been renting campervans since 1993 and runs US depots in Los Angeles, Las Vegas and San Francisco. Its fleet ranges from a basic MiniVan to the Kuga, which sleeps 2 to 3, and the Hi5, which sleeps 4 to 5, with fridges, gas cookers, sinks and solar panels on the larger vans. Bedding and cooking gear cost a one-off $45 per rental, and renters get 10% off at KOA campgrounds. Cancellation is free until 14 days before pickup, then $200, then 50% within 7 days. The downsides are reach and hours: three cities only, and pickups run 9 am to 4 pm, Monday to Saturday. We could not confirm a USD nightly rate on its pages, so check the booking engine.

    What it does well

    • +Unlimited miles included on every rental
    • +No extra fee for drivers aged 21 to 24
    • +Free cancellation until 14 days before pickup

    Where it falls short

    Indie Campers covers more North American cities than any other fleet company here, with pickups in 15, including Anchorage, Denver, Chicago, Miami, New York, Seattle, Toronto and Vancouver. That makes it strong for one-way routes, and it lists 100+ locations worldwide. In Los Angeles the rental includes unlimited mileage, a kitchen kit, a cleaning kit, a basic protection plan and 24/7 roadside assistance, and one-way drop-offs include San Francisco, Las Vegas, Phoenix and San Diego. Payment is flexible: you can book now and pay 30 days before the trip, with a full refund up to 31 days before pickup. The costs to plan for are a credit card deposit of $1,500 to $3,500 in Los Angeles and mileage terms that vary by destination elsewhere. Indie Campers says it has more than 73,000 traveler reviews averaging 4.7. Its pages did not show a fixed USD starting rate, so get a quote for your dates.

    El Monte RV is a long-running motorhome rental company that also rents a camper van under its Mighty RV value brand. The Mighty Class B is 20 to 22 feet long, sleeps 2 adults and 2 small children on a rooftop bed and a Murphy bed, and has a wet bath, sink, stove top and refrigerator, though no microwave. That makes it more self-contained than minivan campers. El Monte RV runs pickups in cities including Los Angeles, San Francisco, Las Vegas, Denver, Orlando, Miami, New York, Chicago, Dallas and Seattle, and offers 24-7 roadside assistance. Its deals page is active: AAA members get 10% off and 50 free miles per day, a winter special cuts nightly rates by 20%, and one-way specials save up to 90% with no one-way fee. Miles are otherwise charged on top, and the Class B cannot tow. We could not confirm a USD nightly rate on its pages, so get a quote.

    What it does well

    JUCY is on this list for a different shopper: Americans planning a campervan trip in New Zealand or Australia. It is no longer an option at home, since jucyusa.com now redirects to its New Zealand site and its location pages list only New Zealand and Australian branches. In New Zealand it rents from Auckland, Christchurch and Queenstown with free airport transfers, and in Australia from six branches including Cairns, Brisbane, Melbourne, Sydney and Adelaide. Every camper, car and motorhome hire includes unlimited kilometres, and the range runs from the 2-Berth Crib to the 4-Berth Condo and the Chill'd 6-Berth Big Kahuna. JUCY offers 24/7 road trip support, a flexible cancellation policy and Velocity Frequent Flyer Points on eligible direct bookings.

    Compact RV about $130 to $180 per night in peak season, plus mileage

    Quoted from the Cruise America pricing page on November 13, 2026: Great for couples/single travelers $130 – $180 per night

    Cruise America is the familiar name in US motorhome rental, and it publishes more pricing detail than most. Its guide lists peak-season nightly rates of $130 to $180 for the Compact RV, $150 to $200 for the Truck Camper, $180 to $250 for the Class C Standard and $200 to $270 for the Class C Large, with off-peak rates up to 25% lower. For camper van shoppers the closest options are the Compact RV, a fully self-contained unit for two adults and a child with a rear kitchen and 6.5 foot ceilings, and the Ultra Compact RV, which is only 7 feet wide. What it does not have is a true van, so you get more space and a bathroom but a bigger vehicle to park. Mileage adds about $0.35 to $0.50 per mile, and kitchen and bedding kits are paid add-ons, so a week-long trip costs well above the nightly rate. Its guide puts a 7-night, 800-mile Class C trip at about $1,400 to $1,900.

    What it does well

    • +Fully self-contained units with a bathroom
    • +Published peak-season rates for every class
    • +Large Class C units sleep up to 7

    Where it falls short

Before you pick a product or a plan

Decide between a fleet company and a marketplace

Fleet companies such as Escape Campervans, Roadsurfer and Indie Campers own their vans, so models, rules and support are the same at every pickup. Marketplaces such as Outdoorsy and RVshare list privately owned vehicles, which gives far more choice, but mileage, cleaning and cancellation rules vary by owner, and a service fee is added at checkout.

Add mileage to the nightly rate

Miles can change the total more than the rate. Escape includes 150 free miles per day and charges $0.35 per extra mile, Cruise America's guide lists $0.35 to $0.50 per mile, and Roadsurfer and Travellers Autobarn include unlimited miles. On a 2,000 mile, 10-day trip, Escape's own example bills $175 for 500 extra miles.

Choose whether you need a bathroom

Minivan campers like Escape's have no toilet, shower or plumbing, so you rely on campground and public facilities. If you want a toilet on board, look at Roadsurfer's Liberty Lodge, El Monte RV's Mighty Class B or Cruise America's compact RVs, which are larger to drive and park.

Check age rules and deposits

Most companies rent from age 21. Escape charges $10 per day for drivers under 25, while Travellers Autobarn charges no young driver fee. Indie Campers lists a credit card deposit of $1,500 to $3,500 for Los Angeles rentals, so check your card limit.

Read the cancellation window

Escape refunds in full up to 7 days before the trip, Travellers Autobarn charges nothing until 14 days before pickup, and Indie Campers refunds in full up to 31 days before. Roadsurfer's refund depends on your booking terms and whether you added Flex protection.
