It was a great experience- they were flexible on timing of pick up and drop off, and had the option to leave out car in their driveway. They were easy to communicate with and very responsive. Really nice people and would definitely rent from them again.

Greg is accessible, extremely responsive and very friendly. We rented The Chateau for a month and traveled to the west coast of BC and had an amazing time. The RV is like traveling in a nice apartment. We will definitely share our amazing experience with Greg and RVeazy. Hope to hit the east coast next year.
Richard F. - Sep 2025
This was our first RV road trip with our family of five. Greg made everything easy, and was a fantastic host. He walked us through everything we needed to know and was super open and friendly. When we weren't able to do something and needed help, he responded quickly. We loved the RV! It was spacious and perfect for our three kids (especially the bunk beds). RV was really well kept and fun to drive. We would definitely rent from Greg again. Highly recommend!

Frequently asked questions about campgrounds near Ottawa - Gatineau, ON
How much does it cost to rent an RV in Ottawa-Gatineau?
RV rental in Ottawa-Gatineau is more affordable than most travellers expect, with options for every budget. On RVezy, motorhome rentals near Ottawa typically average around $200 CAD per night, while towable travel trailers usually run closer to $120 CAD per night. Many hosts offer 10-20% weekly and monthly discounts, which is the easiest way to find a cheap RV rental in Ottawa-Gatineau. To save more, book mid-week, travel in the shoulder season (May or September), and use the price-range filter to sort listings. Pro tip: choosing a trailer instead of a Class A motorhome can cut your nightly cost almost in half, leaving more room in the budget for poutine in the ByWard Market or a Gatineau Park day pass.
rvezy.com/rv-search?SearchAddress=Ottawa%2C%20OntarioWhat licence do I need to rent an RV in Ottawa-Gatineau, Ontario?
Good news: a regular Ontario Class G driver's licence (or its equivalent from any Canadian province, US state, or country) is all you need to rent an RV in Ottawa-Gatineau. No special motorhome endorsement or commercial licence is required for the Class B campervans, Class C motorhomes, travel trailers, and fifth wheels you'll find on RVezy. Approved renters on RVezy are generally 25 or older with a valid licence. Visiting from outside Canada or the US? Bring your home licence plus an International Driving Permit to be safe. RVezy verifies your ID through the platform during checkout, so the whole process takes just a few minutes before you're booked and ready to roll.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360039008774-Understanding-approved-driver-requirementsIs my RV rental in Ottawa-Gatineau protected if something goes wrong?
Yes, every RV rental in Ottawa-Gatineau booked through RVezy includes a renter protection plan and 24/7 roadside assistance. The protection plan covers most accidental damage to the vehicle and gives you real financial peace of mind on the road. During checkout, you choose your level of coverage, from a basic plan up to premium options with lower deductibles, so you decide how much protection feels right for your trip. Hosts don't set this, you do. That means whether you're heading up Highway 5 into Gatineau Park or down Highway 416 to the Thousand Islands, you can focus on the scenery instead of the what-ifs.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/34008759079835-RVezy-renter-protection-plans-in-detailWhat if I need to cancel my Ottawa-Gatineau RV booking?
Booking is low-risk because RVezy (not the host) handles cancellations through a clear, guest-friendly policy that is standard across the platform. Every booking includes a grace period after you book where you can cancel for a full refund, so you can lock in that perfect Gatineau Park weekend without second-guessing. After the grace period, your refund depends on how far out you cancel from your trip start date. If a host needs to cancel, RVezy refunds guests or provides travel credits so you're never left stranded. Pro tip: book early to lock in the best motorhome rental Ottawa-Gatineau has on offer, knowing the cancellation policy gives you flexibility if plans shift.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360037736674-Understanding-the-cancellation-policy-for-guestsCan I bring my dog on an Ottawa-Gatineau RV rental?
Absolutely, pet-friendly RV rental in Ottawa-Gatineau is easy to find on RVezy thanks to the Pet-Friendly filter on the search page. Plenty of hosts welcome dogs, with some asking for a small pet cleaning fee disclosed upfront in the listing. The Ottawa-Gatineau region is genuinely one of Canada's best dog-travel cities: leashed dogs are welcome on most trails in Gatineau Park, along the Ottawa River pathways, and at the off-leash Bruce Pit in Nepean. Many local campgrounds, including the Ottawa/Cardinal KOA Holiday, are dog-friendly too. Pro tip: message the host before booking to confirm any size or breed preferences, then pack a tie-out and water bowl for shaded campsite hangs.
ncc-ccn.gc.ca/places/gatineau-parkCan the RV be delivered to my campsite in Ottawa-Gatineau?
Yes, RV delivery in Ottawa-Gatineau is one of the most popular options on RVezy, and it's perfect if it's your first time renting an RV. Many local hosts will drive the RV directly to your campground, drop it off, level it, hook up power and water, and walk you through every system before handing over the keys. Use the Delivery filter when you search to see listings that offer this service. Popular drop-off spots include Gatineau Park's Lac Philippe and Lac la Pêche campgrounds, plus Ontario Parks favourites like Rideau River and Fitzroy Provincial Park. Pro tip: delivery fees are usually based on distance, so booking a host close to your destination keeps costs down, and you skip the stress of driving a motorhome through downtown Ottawa traffic.
ncc-ccn.gc.ca/places/camping-in-gatineau-parkHow many kilometres do I get with an Ottawa-Gatineau RV rental?
You'll have plenty of road to explore. Most Ottawa-Gatineau hosts on RVezy include a daily kilometre allowance (often 100-200 km per day), with extra kilometres available at a small per-km rate clearly shown in the listing. Some hosts even offer RV rental with unlimited mileage, which is gold if you're planning a longer loop. For reference: Algonquin Provincial Park is about 250 km west, Mont-Tremblant is roughly 130 km north, Kingston sits about 195 km south, and Montreal is just over 200 km east. A weekend trip into Gatineau Park barely registers on the odometer. Pro tip: estimate your route in advance, then filter for listings with mileage that matches, so there are zero surprises when you return the RV.
rvezy.com/rv-search?SearchAddress=Ottawa%2C%20OntarioWhere are the best campgrounds near Ottawa-Gatineau for RVs?
The best campgrounds near Ottawa-Gatineau cover every style of trip. Gatineau Park (operated by the National Capital Commission) offers Lac Philippe, Lac la Pêche, and Lac Taylor campgrounds just 30-45 minutes from downtown, with sites suitable for smaller RVs and trailers. On the Ontario side, Rideau River Provincial Park near Kemptville is about 45 minutes south with electrical hookups, and Fitzroy Provincial Park sits about 45 minutes west along the Ottawa River. For full-service RV camping in Ottawa-Gatineau, the Ottawa/Cardinal KOA Holiday and Wesley Clover Parks Campground in Nepean offer 30/50-amp power, water, sewer, and family amenities. Pro tip: provincial parks fill up fast for summer weekends, so book the moment your dates open up on the Ontario Parks reservation site.
ontarioparks.ca/park/rideauriverWhen is the best time to take an RV trip in Ottawa-Gatineau?
Late May through mid-October is the sweet spot for an Ottawa-Gatineau RV trip, and each stretch offers something different. June through August brings warm days averaging 21-27°C, perfect for swimming at Meech Lake or paddling the Rideau Canal, plus festivals like Bluesfest and Canada Day on Parliament Hill. Early September through mid-October is the local favourite: cooler nights, fewer bugs, and the world-famous Gatineau Park fall colours typically peak in early October. Mid-to-late May is great for budget travellers, with campgrounds open but quieter. Winters are cold (often -15°C or lower) and most campgrounds close, though a handful of hosts offer four-season RVs for winterized adventures. Pro tip: book your fall-colour weekend by July to grab the best listings.
climate.weather.gc.ca/climate_normals/results_1991_2020_e.html?stnID=49568I've never driven an RV before. Will I be okay in Ottawa-Gatineau?
Yes, and you're far from alone. Many guests booking an RV rental in Ottawa are first-time renters, and every RVezy host provides a hands-on walkthrough at pickup covering driving, hookups, the propane system, the awning, slide-outs, and the dump process. If you're nervous about driving, start with a Class B campervan rental in Ottawa-Gatineau (basically a tall van) or a small travel trailer, then choose delivery so the host parks it for you. Local roads are forgiving: Highway 5 into Gatineau Park, Highway 416 south, and Highway 417 through the city are all wide, well-maintained, and easy to navigate outside rush hour. Pro tip: choose a truck-friendly fuel station with high clearance and pull-through lanes for your first fill-up to make the experience stress-free.
ontario.ca/page/driving-and-roadsWhat happens if the RV breaks down during my trip?
You're covered around the clock. Every RVezy booking includes 24/7 roadside assistance as part of the renter protection plan, so if you get a flat on Highway 50 outside Gatineau, a dead battery at Lac Philippe, or a mechanical issue along your route, one phone call dispatches help. Your host is also your first line of support and is usually happy to answer questions by phone or message if something simple comes up (like figuring out how to refill the freshwater tank). RVezy's customer support team is reachable before, during, and after your trip too. Pro tip: snap a quick photo of the RV's roadside-assistance sticker and save the host's number to your phone the moment you pick up, so help is one tap away anywhere in the Ottawa Valley.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/34008759079835-RVezy-renter-protection-plans-in-detailCan I take my Ottawa-Gatineau RV rental across the border into the US?
Cross-border RV travel from Ottawa-Gatineau is possible, but it depends on the host and their insurance, so message the host directly through the listing page before booking to confirm. The closest US crossings are Ogdensburg-Prescott (about 80 km south on Highway 416) and the Thousand Islands Bridge near Lansdowne (about 155 km southwest), opening up beautiful routes through the Adirondacks, Lake Placid, and Vermont. Travel to Mexico is not permitted on any RVezy rental because insurance coverage does not extend there. For trips that stay in Canada, you can drive freely from Ontario into Quebec (the bridges between Ottawa and Gatineau cross constantly) and beyond to Montreal, Quebec City, or the Laurentians. Pro tip: bring your passport even for day trips, just in case.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360039340074-Insurance-coverage-validityHow much fuel will I burn on an RV road trip from Ottawa-Gatineau?
Fuel is the second-biggest cost after the rental itself, but it's easy to budget. Class B campervans average 11-14 L/100km, Class C motorhomes run 18-22 L/100km, and travel trailers add about 30-40% to your tow vehicle's normal consumption. With Ottawa-area gas prices typically sitting around $1.45-$1.70 per litre, a weekend RV trip to Gatineau Park (about 100 km round-trip) costs roughly $30-$60 in fuel, while an RV road trip from Ottawa to Algonquin and back is closer to $150-$200. Cheaper fuel is often found across the river in Gatineau, Quebec, and at Costco locations if you have a membership. Pro tip: drive at 95 km/h instead of 110 km/h to noticeably drop fuel consumption, especially heading up the hills toward Wakefield.
natural-resources.canada.ca/energy-sources/fossil-fuels/pricing/fuel-pricesHow far in advance should I book a campground near Ottawa-Gatineau?
For the best campgrounds near Ottawa-Gatineau, book as early as you can, the popular ones fill up fast. Ontario Parks (including Rideau River, Fitzroy, and Murphys Point) opens reservations five months ahead to the day at 7:00 a.m. through the Ontario Parks reservation system, and prime July-August weekends often sell out within hours. Gatineau Park campgrounds (Lac Philippe, Lac la Pêche, Lac Taylor) open reservations through the National Capital Commission each spring and book up especially fast for fall-colour weekends. Private RV parks like the Ottawa/Cardinal KOA usually have more last-minute flexibility. Pro tip: set a calendar reminder for the morning your dates open, log in early, and have your site preferences ready, you'll be camping at the best lakeside spot in the region.
reservations.ontarioparks.ca/What are driving conditions like around Ottawa-Gatineau for an RV?
Driving conditions around Ottawa-Gatineau are very RV-friendly outside of downtown. Highways 417, 416, and Quebec's Autoroute 50 are wide, well-maintained, and easy for motorhomes of any size. The one place to avoid is the downtown core, where on-street parking for large vehicles is restricted overnight, so plan to sightsee on foot, by bike, or via the O-Train. Watch for low-clearance underpasses in the Glebe and around Bank Street, and skip Gatineau Park's Champlain Lookout road in larger rigs (it's narrow and winding). Pro tip: park your RV at your campground or a host-recommended lot, then take an OC Transpo Park & Ride into downtown for stress-free Parliament Hill sightseeing.
ottawa.ca/en/parking-roads-and-travel/parkingWhat amenities do Ottawa-Gatineau campgrounds offer, and where can I dump or fill up?
Most campgrounds near Ottawa-Gatineau are very well-equipped. Provincial parks like Rideau River offer electrical hookups (15/30 amp), flush toilets, hot showers, potable-water taps, and a sani-dump station included with your stay. Gatineau Park's Lac Philippe campground has potable water, vault and flush toilets, and a dump station, though sites are mostly unserviced (perfect for boondocking practice). Full-service private parks like the Ottawa/Cardinal KOA and Wesley Clover Parks offer 30/50-amp power, water, sewer at the site, Wi-Fi, and family amenities. If you need a standalone dump station, several Petro-Canada and Irving Big Stop locations along Highway 417 offer them for a small fee. Pro tip: fill your freshwater tank before heading into Gatineau Park, taps inside the park are limited to specific service buildings.
ontarioparks.ca/park/rideauriver/campingWhat features and amenities come with Ottawa-Gatineau RV rentals?
RVezy listings in Ottawa-Gatineau range from cozy campervans to family-sized Class C motorhomes and spacious fifth wheels, and the standard features are surprisingly generous. Expect a real bed (or two), a kitchen with fridge, stove, and microwave, an indoor bathroom with shower and toilet, heating and air conditioning, dining seating with seatbelts for travel, and house batteries for off-grid power. Many rigs also include a TV, Bluetooth stereo, outdoor awning, BBQ, and even a generator for boondocking. Each listing's amenity list is right on the page, so you can match the RV to your trip style. Pro tip: filter by 'Sleeps' count and look for listings that mention heated tanks if you're booking a shoulder-season trip, Ottawa nights in May or October can dip near freezing.
rvezy.com/rv-search?SearchAddress=Ottawa%2C%20OntarioWhat add-ons and pickup options are available for Ottawa-Gatineau RV rentals?
Ottawa-Gatineau hosts on RVezy offer a great range of optional add-ons to make your trip easier. Common ones include kitchen kits (pots, pans, utensils), linen and bedding packages, camping chairs, BBQs, generators, bike racks, Starlink Wi-Fi, and tank-prep services so you don't have to dump on the way back. Pickup is usually at the host's home in neighbourhoods like Kanata, Orléans, Barrhaven, or across the river in Aylmer and Hull, with delivery available from many listings if you'd rather skip driving the RV altogether. Mileage allowances are listed clearly on each listing, with typical ranges of 100-200 km per day and per-km charges for overages. Pro tip: bundle add-ons like the kitchen kit and linens to skip a stressful pre-trip shopping run.
rvezy.com/rv-search?SearchAddress=Ottawa%2C%20OntarioHow does payment and the security deposit work on RVezy?
Payment is simple and fully handled through RVezy, so you never have to exchange cash or e-transfers with your host. You pay by credit card during booking, and the platform holds your payment securely. A refundable security deposit is placed separately on hold on your credit card before pickup (the amount is shown clearly during checkout) and is released after the trip once the host confirms the RV came back in good shape. To avoid issues, do a quick walkaround at pickup and dropoff with the host, take date-stamped photos, and report anything unusual right away. Pro tip: use a credit card with a high limit so the deposit hold doesn't squeeze your trip-spending room for that BeaverTail at the ByWard Market.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360038106214-How-the-security-deposit-worksCan I rent a winterized RV in Ottawa-Gatineau for a cold-weather trip?
Yes, winter RV camping in Ottawa-Gatineau is absolutely doable and a magical way to experience Winterlude, Gatineau Park's cross-country ski trails, or skating on the Rideau Canal Skateway. A handful of RVezy hosts in the region offer four-season rigs with heated holding tanks, enclosed underbellies, extra insulation, and propane furnaces sized for true Canadian cold (Ottawa winters routinely hit -20°C). Message the host before booking to confirm the RV is rated for sub-zero use and ask about shore-power requirements, most winter campers stay at sites with 30-amp electric or in a host-arranged driveway setup with a heated pedestal. Pro tip: pair a winterized RV rental with a day on Gatineau Park's ski trails for the best of both worlds, sleep warm, ski free.
