Top Three RV Rental Locations in Kansas
Known as both the Sunflower State and the Wheat State, Kansas offers plenty of options for campers. You can stay in its biggest city of Wichita in southern Kansas or head to Overland Park in the extended Kansas City metro area. The next biggest city outside of the KC suburbs is Topeka, the state's capital.
If you're planning a trip and creating your budget, you'll want to look at the cost of Kansas RV rentals. Travel trailers are among the most popular options for travelers. You can snag a newer model or one that is only a couple of years old and has lots of interior space for around $150 or less per night.
If you need more room or don't have a vehicle that can tow a travel trailer, consider a Class A motorhome. Jayco and models from other brands can sleep as many as eight guests; this means you can keep an eye on your kids from the driver's seat. Most Class A rentals in Kansas are available for $200 to $250 per night. There are also some pop-up campers that you can rent for a weekend or a full week. Generally costing $100 or less per night, these models conveniently have beds on each end. Kansas pop-up campers are easy to set up, too.
