Recent Kaslo RV rental reviews
First time renting through the app and had an amazing experience. David was awesome from start to finish. The trailer was spotless, comfortable, and included all the essentials. The hitch and sway bars being included made the whole process even easier. We especially liked that the trailer has solar panels, which kept the battery fully charged without the need for a generator. Highly recommend and would rent from David again!

RVezy process worked great. The motorhome was very clean and exceeded our expectations. The hosts-Darlene and Skip were friendly, informative and helpful. The whole process was10/10. When we rent again, we will be using the RVezy process and will be looking for the same motorhome and hosts.

Awesome lightweight trailer. Pulls great too. Hard to find lightweight trailers this spacious. Came super clean and ready to go. Communication was great and Sheldon was always quick to answer any questions we had before our during our trip. We will be renting again for-sure.

Pat was a great communicator. She went out of her way to make sure the unit was set up exactly as we wanted. The unit was squeaky clean! Spacious and very comfortable for the three of us. It was well stocked with kitchen equipment and supplies. The solar/battery worked seamlessly and we never needed to use the generator. Overall a 5 star experience. I am already making plans to use Pat’s RV again.

We had a great trip with Julie’s trailer. It was exactly as shown in the photos and had everything we needed to enjoy our camping experience. Julie was easy to communicate with and very responsive. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience!

We had a fantastic one week camping trip in the van! It was equipped with most everything we needed including extra camping supplies which really came in handy during our trip. The host helped us right away with any questions during the trip to make it as smooth as possible. We would definitely rent again 😊

Frequently asked questions about renting an RV in Kaslo, BC
How much does it cost to rent an RV in Kaslo?
An RV rental in Kaslo is one of the most affordable ways to explore Kootenay Lake and the West Kootenays. On RVezy you'll typically find travel trailers from around CA$95 to CA$180 per night, Class C motorhomes from CA$200 to CA$300 per night, and campervans from CA$150 to CA$225 per night, with weekly discounts on many listings. The cheapest RV rental in Kaslo is usually a smaller travel trailer booked midweek or in shoulder season (May or September). Pro tip: book by mid-March for July and August dates, when the Kaslo Jazz Etc. Festival fills up local campgrounds and pushes nightly rates up.
rvezy.com/rv-search?SearchAddress=Kaslo%2C%20British%20ColumbiaWhat license do I need to rent an RV in Kaslo, BC?
Great news: a standard Class 5 BC driver's licence (or its equivalent from your home province, state or country) is all you need to rent an RV in Kaslo. No special RV endorsement or commercial licence is required for the motorhomes, campervans and travel trailers listed on RVezy. You must be at least 25 years old to book, and RVezy verifies your ID through the platform during checkout, so there's no paperwork to chase down at pickup. Visiting from overseas? Pair your home licence with an International Driving Permit before you fly into Castlegar (YCG) or Kelowna (YLW) and you're ready to roll up Highway 31 to Kaslo.
icbc.com/driver-licensing/visit-move-bc/Visit-BCIs insurance and roadside assistance included with my Kaslo RV rental?
Yes, every RV rental in Kaslo booked through RVezy includes a renter protection plan and 24/7 roadside assistance, so you can head up Highway 31 toward Kootenay Lake with real peace of mind. You choose your protection tier (not the host) during checkout, and each plan bundles coverage for the RV with roadside support. If you get a flat between Balfour and Kaslo, or your battery dies at a trailhead near Kokanee Glacier Provincial Park, one call gets help dispatched. Full details are on the RVezy insurance and protection page.
rvezy.com/insurance-and-protectionWhat's the cancellation policy if my Kaslo RV trip plans change?
Booking is low-risk: RVezy (not the individual host) sets the cancellation policy, and every booking includes a money-back grace period right after you book, so you're not locked in the moment you click confirm. Refund amounts after the grace period depend on how far in advance you cancel. If a host cancels, you'll receive a refund or travel credit. Because the West Kootenays can see surprise weather, this flexibility is a real relief. Full details are on the RVezy Help Center, and support is available before, during and after your trip.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360037736674-Understanding-the-cancellation-policy-for-guestsCan I bring my dog on a pet-friendly RV rental in Kaslo?
Absolutely, lots of dogs road-trip the Kootenays every summer. To find a pet-friendly RV rental in Kaslo, toggle the Pet-Friendly filter on RVezy and you'll see listings whose hosts welcome four-legged guests (some ask for a small pet fee or extra cleaning charge, shown upfront). Once you arrive, dogs on leash are welcome in Kaslo's Vimy Park and along the Kaslo River Trail, and leashed pets are allowed at Kootenay Lake Provincial Park's Davis Creek and Lost Ledge campgrounds (not on beach areas). Pro tip: pack a towel; the lake is cold and clean, and your pup will want a swim after exploring the waterfront.
bcparks.ca/kootenay-lake-park/Can the RV be delivered to my campground in Kaslo?
Yes, RV delivery in Kaslo is one of the easiest ways to start your trip, especially if you're flying into Castlegar (YCG) or Kelowna (YLW) and don't want to tow. Use the Delivery filter on RVezy and you'll find hosts who will drop the RV at popular spots like Kaslo Municipal Campground at the foot of A Avenue, Mirror Lake Campground on Arcola Road, or a private cabin on Kootenay Lake. They'll level it, hook up power and water, and walk you through every system before handing over the keys. Delivery fees vary by distance, so message the host directly through the listing to confirm a quote.
rvezy.com/rv-search?SearchAddress=Kaslo%2C%20British%20ColumbiaHow far can I drive from Kaslo, and what are the mileage policies?
You've got incredible range from Kaslo: Nelson is just 70 km (about 1 hour) south on Highway 31, Ainsworth Hot Springs is 20 minutes down the lake, Revelstoke is roughly 200 km (3 hours) via the free Galena Bay ferry, and Banff is about 600 km (7 hours) if you're chasing the Rockies. Each host on RVezy sets their own mileage policy, shown clearly on the listing page; many include 100 to 200 km per day free, and some offer RV rental with unlimited mileage which is ideal for longer Kaslo RV trip itineraries. Pro tip: if you're planning a big loop through Nakusp and Revelstoke, filter for unlimited-mileage listings to avoid overage fees.
www2.gov.bc.ca/gov/content/transportation/passenger-travel/water-travel/inland-ferriesWhere are the best campgrounds near Kaslo for an RV?
You're spoiled for choice. The best campgrounds near Kaslo for RV camping include Kaslo Municipal Campground (serviced and unserviced sites right on Kootenay Lake beside Vimy Park, walking distance to the SS Moyie National Historic Site), Mirror Lake Campground on Arcola Road just south of town with full hookups, Schroeder Creek Resort about 30 minutes north with 57 full-hookup sites and a marina, and Davis Creek and Lost Ledge campgrounds in Kootenay Lake Provincial Park, 25 to 30 km north of Kaslo with jaw-dropping Purcell Mountain views. For first-come, first-served backup, Lost Ledge almost always has something on a weekday.
bcparks.ca/kootenay-lake-park/When is the best time to visit Kaslo in an RV?
Late June through mid-September is the sweet spot for RV camping in Kaslo, with July and August averaging daytime highs of 22 to 23°C (72 to 73°F) and warm evenings perfect for lakefront fires. The Kaslo Jazz Etc. Summer Music Festival the first weekend of August is a bucket-list event held on a floating stage on Kootenay Lake. For quieter roads and lower rates on your motorhome rental Kaslo, target the second half of September when the larches turn gold and Davis Creek campsites open up midweek. Winters are cold and snowy (December averages -4°C high, -12°C low), so most local campgrounds close from October through April.
weather.gc.ca/en/location/index.html?coords=49.912,-116.908I'm first time renting an RV. Will I be okay driving around Kaslo?
Yes, and first-timers do this every weekend. Your RVezy host will give you a full walkthrough at pickup, covering propane, the fridge, water tanks, the slide-out, leveling and dump procedures, so you're never left guessing. Kaslo itself is a quiet village of about 1,000 people with a four-way stoplight at A Avenue, easy parking by the lakefront, and no urban traffic to worry about. Highway 31 along Kootenay Lake is paved, well-signed and scenic, with passing lanes on most climbs. Pro tip: do your first short drive from the host to Kaslo Municipal Campground (just a few kilometres) to get comfortable before heading to Ainsworth or Nakusp the next morning.
www2.gov.bc.ca/gov/content/transportation/driving-and-cycling/traveller-information/routes-and-driving-conditionsWhat happens if something goes wrong with my RV near Kaslo?
You're covered. Every RVezy booking includes 24/7 roadside assistance, so if you get a flat on Highway 31A heading to New Denver, a dead battery at the Davis Creek trailhead, or a lockout in downtown Kaslo, one phone call dispatches help. You can also message your host directly through the RVezy app, and most Kaslo-area hosts answer fast since they're local and know the nearest mechanic in Nelson (about an hour south). RVezy customer support is available before, during and after every trip. Pro tip: save the roadside number in your phone before you leave the host's driveway, because cell coverage thins out north of Kaslo toward the Lardeau Valley.
rvezy.com/insurance-and-protectionWhat are the best RV road trips from Kaslo?
An RV road trip from Kaslo is a Kootenay highlight reel. Top routes include the 70 km lakeside drive south on Highway 31 to Nelson (stop at Ainsworth Hot Springs and Fletcher Falls), a 200 km loop north on Highway 31 to Nakusp Hot Springs and across the free Galena Bay ferry to Revelstoke and Mount Revelstoke National Park, a 600 km push east to Banff and Lake Louise via Highway 1 from Revelstoke, and a scenic crossing on the world's longest free ferry from Balfour to Crawford Bay to explore the artisan shops of the East Shore. Cross-border travel into the US is allowed with host approval; travel to Mexico is not permitted on RVezy rentals.
www2.gov.bc.ca/gov/content/transportation/passenger-travel/water-travel/inland-ferriesWhat kind of fuel economy and gas budget should I plan for in Kaslo?
Plan realistically and you'll have more to spend on Angry Hen Brewing pints in Kaslo. Class C motorhomes typically get 14 to 18 MPG (16 to 20 L/100 km), campervans get 18 to 22 MPG, and a truck plus travel trailer setup usually returns 10 to 14 MPG when towing through the mountains. Fuel in Kaslo and Nelson generally runs higher than Alberta prices because of BC fuel taxes, so top up in Castlegar or Cranbrook on the way in. For a 500 km Kootenay loop in a Class C, budget roughly CA$140 to CA$180 in fuel. Pro tip: the gas station in Kaslo on Front Street closes earlier than highway stations, so fill up before evening drives.
www2.gov.bc.ca/gov/content/taxes/sales-taxes/motor-fuel-carbon-taxHow far in advance should I book a campground near Kaslo?
For July and August, book as soon as the BC Parks reservation window opens, four months before your arrival date, on the official Discover Camping system at camping.bcparks.ca. The Davis Creek loop in Kootenay Lake Provincial Park sells out within minutes for peak weekends, and Kaslo Municipal Campground fills fast around the early-August Jazz Festival. For shoulder-season trips in June or September, two to four weeks ahead is usually plenty. Pro tip: half of Lost Ledge's 14 sites are first-come, first-served, so if your trip is spontaneous, arrive midweek before noon and you'll often score a lakefront spot with a Purcell Mountain view.
bcparks.ca/reservations/What are the local driving conditions like around Kaslo?
Driving around Kaslo is genuinely enjoyable, with light traffic and dramatic mountain-and-lake scenery. Highway 31 between Balfour and Kaslo is paved, two-lane, and full of gentle curves following the west shore of Kootenay Lake; expect a relaxed 60 to 80 km/h pace. Highway 31A west to New Denver is twistier with steeper grades through the Selkirk Mountains, so take it slow in a larger motorhome. From October through April, carry winter tires (legally required on most BC highways October 1 to April 30) and check DriveBC for snow advisories on the Kootenay Pass (Highway 3) if approaching from Creston. Wildlife, especially deer and the occasional black bear, is common at dawn and dusk.
drivebc.ca/What amenities do campgrounds near Kaslo offer, and where can I dump and fill water?
You'll find a great mix. Kaslo Municipal Campground offers serviced sites, free Wi-Fi, hot showers and a sani-dump station right next to the campground at the foot of A Avenue, open spring through fall. Mirror Lake and Schroeder Creek both offer 30/50-amp full hookups (water, sewer, power). Davis Creek and Lost Ledge in Kootenay Lake Provincial Park have potable water and pit toilets but no hookups, perfect for boondocking-style camping with a view. Free potable water is also available seasonally at the Village of Kaslo public works yard. Pro tip: dump before heading up Highway 31 north of Kaslo, because services thin out quickly past Lardeau.
kaslo.ca/p/campgroundWhat's inside a typical RV rental in Kaslo?
More than you'd expect. A typical campervan rental Kaslo or Class C motorhome on RVezy comes with a real bed (or two), a kitchen with a fridge, propane stove, sink and basic cookware, an indoor bathroom with toilet and shower, a dining area, heating, and seatbelts for everyone traveling. Most listings include a roof-mounted air conditioner, many have a generator or solar setup for off-grid nights at Lost Ledge, and a growing number offer a TV and cell-booster or mobile Wi-Fi (helpful since coverage thins north of Kaslo). Each listing's amenity list is detailed on RVezy, and you can message the host before booking to confirm anything specific like a barbecue or paddleboard rack.
rvezy.com/rv-search?SearchAddress=Kaslo%2C%20British%20ColumbiaWhat add-ons and pickup options can I expect from Kaslo RV hosts?
Lots of helpful extras. Many Kaslo-area RVezy hosts offer add-ons like camping chairs and table packages, bedding and linens, kitchen kits, BBQ propane, generators, bike racks, kayaks or paddleboards (gold for Kootenay Lake), and pet-friendly cleaning bundles, each priced clearly on the listing. Pickup is usually at the host's home in Kaslo, Nelson or Balfour, with a 30 to 60-minute orientation; many also offer delivery to Kaslo Municipal Campground, Mirror Lake or anywhere along Highway 31. Mileage policies (a per-night allowance with a per-km overage fee, or unlimited) are listed right on the page. Pro tip: book a paddleboard add-on; Kootenay Lake mornings are glassy and unforgettable.
rvezy.com/rv-search?SearchAddress=Kaslo%2C%20British%20ColumbiaHow does payment and the security deposit work for a Kaslo RV rental?
Payment is simple and secure. When you book your RV rental in Kaslo through RVezy, you pay by credit card directly on the platform (no cash to the host), and your card is charged according to the booking schedule shown at checkout. A separate security deposit hold is placed on your card before the trip starts; the amount is shown clearly on the listing and varies by RV type. As long as the RV is returned on time, clean, with the same fuel and propane levels, and undamaged, the hold is released after your trip. Pro tip: take dated photos of the interior and exterior at pickup and dropoff to keep things smooth.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360038106214-How-the-security-deposit-worksCan I rent an RV in Kaslo in winter, and what should I know about cold-weather camping?
Yes, winter rentals are possible in Kaslo and they're a quiet, snowy adventure. A handful of RVezy hosts in the Kootenays offer four-season RVs with heated holding tanks, enclosed underbellies and propane furnaces suitable for December through March, when Kaslo averages -4°C highs and -12°C lows with regular snowfall. Most provincial campgrounds close, but you can shore-power at private parks that stay open year-round and use Kaslo as a basecamp for Whitewater Ski Resort (about 90 minutes south near Nelson) or backcountry touring in the Purcells. Pro tip: filter for four-season or winterized listings and confirm with the host that the RV has been freshly serviced for cold weather.
