We had a great time renting this camper and taking it on a family trip to Jellystone Park. Richard had great communication throughout the trip and the camper had everything we needed. Would recommend this camper!
Tripp B. - Jun 2024
Great weekend glamping in Richard’s camper at JI County Park! The camper was in great condition, everything worked, and it had everything needed while away from home. Richard was great at communicating with me from beginning to end. He delivered the camper early and had it setup for our family to enjoy with nothing to do when we arrived. Nice full size fridge. Spacious bathroom. WiFi hotspot was handy. First time renting an RV and looking forward to doing it again!

Frequently asked questions about campgrounds near Summerville, SC
How much does an RV rental in Summerville cost?
RV rental in Summerville is one of the most affordable ways to explore the Lowcountry. Travel trailers typically start around $90 to $140 per night, Class C motorhomes run roughly $175 to $275 per night, and larger Class A coaches can reach $300 or more. To find a cheap RV rental in Summerville, aim for weekday pickups, book outside the April Flowertown Festival window, and consider a travel trailer if your host offers delivery (you skip the cost of a tow vehicle). Pro tip: many Summerville hosts include generators or solar at no extra charge, which saves you the $40 to $75 daily generator fee common in other markets. Filter by price and Instant Book to lock in the best deal fast.
rvezy.com/rv-search?SearchAddress=Summerville%2C%20South%20CarolinaDo I need a special license to rent an RV in Summerville, SC?
Good news: your regular driver's license is all you need for almost every RV on RVezy in Summerville. South Carolina only requires a special non-commercial classification for rigs over 26,000 pounds GVW, and virtually every Class B campervan, Class C motorhome, and travel trailer you'll rent here falls well under that threshold. You'll also need to be 25 or older and verify your ID through the RVezy platform during booking. Visiting from abroad? Pick up an International Driving Permit from your home country's auto club before you fly into Charleston International, and you're ready to hit Highway 17 toward the coast.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360039008774-Understanding-approved-driver-requirementsWhat protection is included with my Summerville RV rental?
Every RVezy booking in Summerville comes with a built-in renter protection plan plus 24/7 roadside assistance, so you can cross the Ashley River and head toward Folly Beach with peace of mind. The protection plan covers most physical damage to the RV during your trip, and you choose your coverage level during checkout, not the host. While this isn't traditional auto insurance, it provides meaningful financial protection if something unexpected happens on your Summerville RV trip. Pro tip: many guests upgrade to a higher tier for trips that include Charleston's narrow historic streets, just for the extra cushion on the deductible.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/34008759079835-RVezy-renter-protection-plans-in-detailWhat if I need to cancel my Summerville RV rental?
You're not locked in the moment you book. RVezy sets a clear cancellation policy that applies to every rental in Summerville (hosts don't set this themselves), and it includes a grace period for full refunds shortly after booking, plus protections if a hurricane or other natural disaster threatens your trip. Since Summerville sits in the Atlantic hurricane belt with peak season running June through November, that flexibility matters. Pro tip: book early for the popular October to mid-November window when weather is ideal and Charleston-area campgrounds fill up, then you've got time on your side if plans shift. Full cancellation details are available on the RVezy Help Center.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360037736674-Understanding-the-cancellation-policy-for-guestsCan I bring my dog on a Summerville RV trip?
Absolutely, and Summerville is one of the most dog-friendly corners of the Lowcountry. Just use the Pet-Friendly filter on RVezy to see every pet-friendly RV rental in Summerville at a glance. Once you've got your rig, head to Azalea Park's walking paths in the heart of downtown, or take the short drive to James Island County Park, which has a dedicated off-leash dog park with a small lake for swimming. Many local campgrounds (including Charleston KOA in Ladson and Oak Plantation) welcome dogs too. Pro tip: message the host before booking to confirm any pet fee and ask about a fenced delivery setup if you're traveling with an escape artist.
charlestoncountyparks.com/153/James-Island-County-ParkCan the RV be delivered to my campground in Summerville?
Yes, RV delivery in Summerville is one of the most popular options on the platform, especially for first-time renters. Many local hosts will tow or drive the rig directly to Charleston KOA in Ladson, Oak Plantation Campground, Givhans Ferry State Park, or even your private driveway, then level it, hook it up to power and water, and walk you through every system before they leave. Just filter for Delivery on the search page to see hosts who offer it (some deliver within a set radius for a flat fee, others charge per mile beyond a base distance). Pro tip: delivery is a game-changer if you're flying into Charleston International Airport and don't want to drive a motorhome out of the rental lot on day one.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360038106514-Delivery-options-and-feesHow far can I travel on a Summerville RV rental?
You've got serious range from Summerville. Popular RV road trips from Summerville include Charleston historic district (about 30 minutes), Folly Beach (about 45 minutes), Edisto Beach State Park (about 1 hour 15 minutes), Hilton Head Island (about 2 hours), Savannah, GA (about 2 hours), Myrtle Beach (about 2 hours), and Asheville, NC (about 4 hours 30 minutes). Each RVezy host sets their own mileage policy, with many offering 100 to 150 free miles per day and some offering RV rental with unlimited mileage for an upcharge. Pro tip: if you're planning a coastal loop hitting Edisto, Hunting Island, and Hilton Head, ask the host upfront about an unlimited-miles add-on; it usually pays for itself by day three.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360039012414-How-mileage-worksWhere are the best campgrounds near Summerville, SC?
You've got great options within a short drive of downtown Summerville. Top picks for RV camping in Summerville include: Charleston KOA Holiday in Ladson with a pool, dog park, and shaded pull-throughs; Oak Plantation Campground in Charleston with a fishing pond and easy access to the historic district; The Campground at James Island County Park with a splash zone and disc golf; and Givhans Ferry State Park on the Edisto River for a quieter, woodsy stay about 25 minutes west. All sit within an easy drive of Charleston's beaches and historic sites. Pro tip: book Givhans Ferry through the South Carolina State Parks reservation site up to 13 months ahead for spring weekends.
southcarolinaparks.com/givhans-ferryWhen is the best time for a Summerville RV trip?
Spring (mid-March through early May) and fall (mid-October through mid-November) are the sweet spot for RV camping in Summerville. Daytime highs run a comfortable 70 to 80°F, humidity drops, and Summerville's famous azaleas explode into bloom around the Flowertown Festival in early April. Summer (June to September) brings 90°F or hotter days, high humidity, and the heart of Atlantic hurricane season, while winters are mild with highs in the upper 50s and lows around 40°F, a quiet, budget-friendly window if you don't mind sweater weather. Local insider tip: October weekends sell out fast at coastal campgrounds, so lock in your RV and campsite together.
weather.gov/chs/I've never rented an RV before. Will I be okay?
Yes, and Summerville is one of the easiest places in the country to start. First time renting an RV? Every RVezy host gives you a hands-on walkthrough at pickup, covering propane, water, slide-outs, dump procedures, and the generator, plus you get their direct number for the whole trip. Stick to a Class C motorhome or a small travel trailer (under 25 feet) for your first run, choose Delivery so the host levels and sets up the rig at the campground, and pick a nearby base like Charleston KOA or Givhans Ferry. Local insider tip: drive your test loop on Hwy 17A north of town where lanes are wide and traffic is light, before tackling I-526 or downtown Charleston.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360039008774-Understanding-approved-driver-requirementsWhat happens if the RV breaks down during my trip?
You're covered around the clock. Every RV rental in Summerville booked through RVezy includes 24/7 roadside assistance as part of the protection plan, so a flat tire on Highway 17 heading to Folly Beach or a battery issue at Edisto Beach State Park is just one phone call away. Roadside will dispatch help for tire changes, jump starts, lockouts, fuel delivery, and towing. You also have direct contact with your host (they know their rig better than anyone) plus the RVezy support team. Pro tip: before you leave the driveway, save the roadside number and your host's number in your phone, snap a photo of the VIN plate, and you're set.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/34008759079835-RVezy-renter-protection-plans-in-detailCan I take a Summerville RV rental across state lines or into Canada?
You bet, interstate travel is welcome on most Summerville rentals. Drive south to Savannah, GA (about 2 hours), north toward the Outer Banks of North Carolina (about 7 hours), or west to the Great Smoky Mountains (about 5 hours 30 minutes) without restriction. Canada is also allowed by many hosts, just message them through the listing before booking to confirm and to make sure the protection plan extends to your route. Travel into Mexico is not permitted on RVezy rentals because coverage doesn't extend there. Pro tip: popular RV road trip routes from Summerville include the coastal run down US-17 to Savannah and Tybee Island, or the mountain route up I-26 to Asheville and the Blue Ridge Parkway.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360039340074-Insurance-coverage-validityWhat should I budget for fuel on a motorhome rental in Summerville?
Fuel is the biggest variable cost, so it's worth planning. Class B campervans typically get 18 to 22 MPG, Class C motorhomes deliver 8 to 12 MPG, and Class A coaches run 6 to 10 MPG. South Carolina gas prices usually sit below the national average, which is a real win for your motorhome rental Summerville budget. Convenient fuel stops near town include the Murphy USA and Costco stations along Trolley Road and N Main Street. Pro tip: fill up in South Carolina before crossing into Georgia or North Carolina, where prices typically jump, and use GasBuddy to spot the cheapest pump along Highway 17.
eia.gov/petroleum/gasdiesel/How far in advance should I book a campground near Summerville?
For state parks and the Lowcountry's popular private parks, book early. South Carolina State Parks (including nearby Givhans Ferry, Edisto Beach, and Colleton State Park) accept reservations up to 13 months in advance through the official South Carolina State Parks reservation site, and coastal favorites like Edisto Beach fill up six to nine months ahead for spring and fall weekends. Private parks like Charleston KOA in Ladson and Oak Plantation typically take reservations 6 to 12 months out and sell out fast around the Cooper River Bridge Run in April and Charleston Wine + Food in March. Pro tip: if you're flexible on dates, Sunday through Thursday arrivals open up much more inventory at the best campgrounds near Summerville.
southcarolinaparks.com/What are the driving conditions like around Summerville?
Driving in and around Summerville is refreshingly easy for an RV. Highway 17A and I-26 are wide and well-maintained, and most of Dorchester County is flat coastal plain with no mountain grades or switchbacks. Two things to watch: the I-526 Mark Clark Expressway around Charleston has tight merges during rush hour (roughly 7 to 9 AM and 4 to 6 PM), and downtown Charleston's historic streets have low-hanging oak branches and tight turns that are tough in a 30-foot rig. Park the RV at your campground and Uber or bike into the peninsula. Local insider tip: summer afternoon thunderstorms blow through fast (usually 3 to 6 PM), so plan your driving for mornings when roads are dry and visibility is great.
www511.scdot.org/What amenities will I find at campgrounds near Summerville?
Lowcountry campgrounds are well-equipped for a comfortable family RV trip in Summerville. Most private parks (Charleston KOA, Oak Plantation, James Island County Park) offer full hookups (water, sewer, 30/50-amp electric), Wi-Fi, laundry, pools, and on-site dump stations. South Carolina State Parks like Givhans Ferry and Colleton typically offer water and electric sites with a centralized dump station near the entrance, plus hot showers and bathhouses. Need to top off your fresh water or dump tanks mid-trip? Many travel centers off I-26 between Summerville and Columbia have public dump and potable water fill stations. Pro tip: bring a 25-foot sewer hose and a 30-to-50-amp dogbone adapter; even at full-hookup sites the pedestal placement varies.
southcarolinaparks.com/givhans-ferryWhat's inside a typical RV rental in Summerville?
You'll be surprised how well-equipped these rigs are. Most Summerville rentals (campervans, Class C motorhomes, and travel trailers) come with a queen or king bed, a kitchen with a fridge/freezer, propane stove, microwave, and sink, a full bathroom with shower and toilet, dinette seating, air conditioning (essential here), and a furnace. Larger Class A and Class C units usually add a TV, outdoor speakers, awning, and a generator for off-grid use, and many hosts include WiFi hotspots, beach chairs, and bike racks as free add-ons. Seatbelts are provided for every legal traveling passenger. Pro tip: filter by Sleeps count and check the listing photos closely; Lowcountry heat means a strong, well-maintained AC unit is non-negotiable from May through September.
rvezy.com/rv-search?SearchAddress=Summerville%2C%20South%20CarolinaHow do pickup, dropoff, and add-ons work in Summerville?
Pickup and dropoff are flexible and host-driven. Most Summerville hosts schedule pickup between 12 PM and 4 PM at their home or storage lot, with dropoff by 11 AM, and they'll walk you through the rig for 30 to 60 minutes at handover. Popular add-ons include linens and towels ($25 to $50), camp chairs and tables ($15 to $30), bike racks, generators, propane refills, and prep/dump service ($50 to $100 if you'd rather not handle waste tanks). Mileage policies typically run 100 to 150 free miles per day with $0.30 to $0.45 per additional mile, or unlimited miles for a flat upgrade. Local insider tip: ask your host about an early pickup the night before; many will let you load up after 6 PM at no extra cost so you can hit the road at sunrise for Edisto Beach.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360039012414-How-mileage-worksHow does payment and the security deposit work?
Payment is simple and handled entirely through the RVezy platform, so you never wire money or pay the host directly. You'll pay your booking total (nightly rate plus RVezy service fee plus selected protection plan) by credit card at checkout, and a refundable security deposit (usually $500 to $1,500 depending on the rig) is held on your card a few days before pickup, not charged unless there's an issue at return. Most renters get the full hold released within 7 days of trip end. Pro tip: do a thorough walkaround video with your host at both pickup and dropoff in Summerville (timestamped photos of the interior, exterior, and odometer) and you'll sail through the deposit release with zero friction.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360038106214-How-the-security-deposit-worksHow do I handle Summerville's summer heat and hurricane season in an RV?
With a little planning, summer RV camping in Summerville is totally doable. From June through September, daytime highs hit 90 to 95°F with heavy humidity, so book a rig with rooftop AC and a campground with 50-amp service (the AC won't keep up on 30-amp during heat waves). Drive in the cooler morning hours, park in shade when possible, and keep window shades down on the sunny side. Atlantic hurricane season runs June 1 to November 30, with peak risk August through early October, so monitor the National Hurricane Center forecast and know your evacuation route (I-26 west is the official evacuation corridor out of the Charleston area). Pro tip: shoulder seasons (April, May, October, November) deliver Lowcountry magic at half the heat-and-humidity tax.
