Matthew was a great person. He was there on time very punctual took time to show me how to use everything even kept in contact with me throughout the day just to make sure everything was going fine even came back to the church service to see how everything ran and I’m grateful to meet him. Look forward to doing business with him in the future.

Excellent propriétaire qui prend soin de son VR. Très à l’écoute et tout s’est très bien déroulé. Seuls bémols dont nous n’étions pas au courant à la réservation… Pas d’eau chaude et pas de déchets solides dans la toilette. Sinon, A+ 👍😊

Frequently asked questions about renting an RV in Markham, IL
How much does it cost to rent an RV in Markham, IL?
RV rental in Markham, IL is more affordable than you might think, with most travelers spending between $90 and $250 per night depending on the size and age of the rig. Compact campervans and travel trailers sit at the lower end, while spacious Class A and Class C motorhomes land in the middle to upper range. You can score a cheap RV rental in Markham by traveling midweek, booking for 5+ nights to unlock weekly discounts, or aiming for the shoulder months of April, May, September, and October when Chicagoland demand drops. Pro tip: browse Instant Book listings on RVezy to compare real-time pricing and lock in your dates before summer festivals fill the calendar.
rvezy.com/rv-search?SearchAddress=Markham%2C%20IllinoisDo I need a special license to rent an RV in Markham, IL?
Good news: for the vast majority of RVs on RVezy, your regular Class D driver's license is all you need to rent an RV in Markham. Illinois only requires a non-commercial Class B or C upgrade for motorhomes with a Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) above 16,000 pounds, which is well above the weight of typical Class B campervans, Class C motorhomes, and travel trailers listed on the platform. Out-of-state and Canadian visitors are recognized under their home license. You must be 25 or older to book, and RVezy verifies your ID right inside the app. Visiting from overseas? Pick up an International Driving Permit (IDP) before your trip and you're road-ready.
ilsos.gov/departments/drivers/drivers-license/cdl/cdl.htmlWhat protection is included with my Markham RV rental?
Every booking on RVezy comes with a renter protection plan and 24/7 roadside assistance built in, so you can hit the road from Markham with real peace of mind. You choose your protection level at checkout (not the host), so you can dial up coverage for a longer Illinois RV trip. Roadside help is just a phone call away whether you're parked at a Cook County Forest Preserve campground or cruising I-80 toward Starved Rock. It's not auto insurance in the traditional sense, but it removes the biggest worry most first-time RV renters have. See full details on RVezy's renter protection plans before you book.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/34008759079835-RVezy-renter-protection-plans-in-detailWhat is the cancellation policy if my plans change?
Booking is low-risk: RVezy sets a clear, standardized cancellation policy on every reservation (hosts don't set this themselves), including a grace period right after booking so you can lock in dates with confidence. The exact refund depends on how far in advance you cancel, which matters during Markham's thunderstorm season from May through August. If a host has to cancel, RVezy refunds you or provides travel credit, and support is available to help you rebook. The takeaway: you can secure your summer RV rental in Illinois early without feeling stuck if life changes.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360037736674-Understanding-the-cancellation-policy-for-guestsCan I bring my dog on a Markham RV rental?
Absolutely, four-legged co-pilots are welcome on plenty of rigs. Use the Pet-Friendly filter on RVezy to instantly see every pet-friendly RV rental in Markham, then message the host to confirm any extras like a pet cleaning fee or weight limit. Once you're rolling, Cook County Forest Preserve campgrounds at Camp Sullivan and Bullfrog Lake both welcome leashed dogs, and the off-leash dog area at Dan Ryan Woods (about 20 minutes north) is a local favorite for pre-trip energy burns. Pro tip: bring a long lead and a collapsible water bowl, because Illinois summers get humid fast and your pup will thank you at every rest stop.
fpdcc.com/places/locations/dan-ryan-woods/Can the RV be delivered to me in Markham?
Yes, RV delivery in Markham is one of the easiest ways to start your trip, especially if you're nervous about driving a big rig through Chicagoland traffic. Many local hosts will deliver and set up the motorhome or travel trailer right at your campground, driveway, or event venue, then walk you through every system before they leave. Popular delivery destinations include Camp Sullivan in Oak Forest, Bullfrog Lake Campground in Willow Springs, and Indiana Dunes State Park about an hour east. Just toggle the Delivery filter on RVezy, enter your drop-off address, and you'll see hosts who serve your spot along with their delivery fee upfront. No towing, no stress, just camping.
fpdcc.com/places/locations/camp-sullivan/How far can I drive on an RV rental from Markham?
You can go just about anywhere the Midwest has to offer. Each Markham host sets their own mileage policy, with most offering 100 to 150 free miles per day and some offering RV rental with unlimited mileage for longer adventures. From Markham you're roughly 30 minutes to downtown Chicago, 1 hour to Indiana Dunes National Park, 1.5 hours to Starved Rock State Park, 3 hours to Wisconsin Dells, and about 5 hours to the Mississippi River bluffs at Galena. Check the mileage allowance on each listing before booking, and if you're planning a long Markham RV trip, message the host to ask about extending the daily allotment, many will happily negotiate.
nps.gov/indu/index.htmWhere can I camp near Markham, IL?
You have great campground options within an hour of Markham. Camp Sullivan in Oak Forest is the closest, run by the Forest Preserves of Cook County with cabins and RV-friendly sites about 10 minutes away. Bullfrog Lake Campground in Willow Springs offers electric hookups and quiet wooded sites about 30 minutes northwest. A bit farther, Indiana Dunes State Park (about 1 hour east) has electric sites steps from Lake Michigan, and Channahon State Park (about 45 minutes southwest) offers first-come sites along the I&M Canal. For full hookups, Windy City Beach & Camping Resort in Lake Village, IN sits about an hour south. Book early for summer weekends, the best campgrounds near Markham fill up by April.
fpdcc.com/things-to-do/camping/When is the best time of year for an RV trip from Markham?
Late May through early October is prime time for RV camping in Markham, with daytime highs from the mid-70s to mid-80s°F and warm Lake Michigan beaches within easy reach. June and September are the sweet spot: comfortable temperatures, fewer mosquitoes, and lower campground demand than peak July and August. Spring (April to early May) can be chilly with highs in the 50s and 60s°F but rewards you with wildflowers at Starved Rock. Fall foliage peaks in mid-October. Winters are genuinely cold (lows in the teens with snow), so if you rent November through March, look for four-season RVs with heated tanks and shore power. Local insider tip: book the weekend after Labor Day, prices drop, kids are back in school, and the weather is still gorgeous.
weather.gov/lot/I've never rented an RV before. Will I be okay?
You'll be totally fine, first time renting an RV is RVezy's specialty. Every host gives you a full orientation at pickup, walking you through the generator, water system, slide-outs, leveling, and dump procedures before you drive off, and you can text them anytime during your trip with questions. Many Markham hosts also offer free pre-booking video calls so you can see the rig and ask anything in advance. If you're nervous about driving, choose a smaller Class B campervan or a travel trailer you can tow with an SUV, or book delivery and skip the driving entirely. Pro tip: take a short practice loop around your neighborhood before heading toward I-294 so the size feels natural.
fmcsa.dot.gov/safety/driver-safety/rv-safetyWhat happens if something goes wrong on the road?
Help is always close by, 24/7 roadside assistance is included with every RVezy booking, covering flat tires, lockouts, dead batteries, tows, and mechanical breakdowns anywhere in the U.S. and Canada. One phone call connects you to a dispatcher who arranges service, no need to track down a mechanic on your own. RVezy's customer support team is also reachable before, during, and after your trip if you need a hand with anything host-related. And of course, your host knows the rig better than anyone, so a quick text often solves the simple stuff. Markham's location near I-57, I-80, and I-294 means service trucks can usually reach you fast.
fmcsa.dot.gov/safety/driver-safety/rv-safetyCan I take my Markham RV rental across state lines?
Yes, an RV road trip from Markham across state borders is one of the best parts of renting here, you're at the crossroads of the Midwest. Most hosts welcome trips to Indiana, Wisconsin, Michigan, Iowa, and Missouri with the standard protection package fully in effect. Cross-border travel into Canada may be allowed by some hosts depending on insurance, so confirm directly with the owner before booking. Travel into Mexico is not permitted on any RVezy rental because protection coverage doesn't extend there. Popular multi-state routes from Markham include the Lake Michigan Circle Tour, a Wisconsin Dells family loop, and the Great River Road down the Mississippi. Just message the host on the listing page to confirm your itinerary.
illinois.gov/What should I budget for fuel on a Markham RV trip?
Fuel is usually the biggest variable cost, so it pays to plan. Class B campervans average 18-22 MPG, Class C motorhomes 8-12 MPG, and Class A motorhomes 6-10 MPG. Illinois gas prices typically run a bit higher than neighboring Indiana, so a popular money-saving trick for Markham travelers is to fill up just over the state line in Hammond or Munster, IN where prices are often $0.30 to $0.60 per gallon lower. For a typical 3-day, 300-mile loop in a Class C, budget roughly $120-$180 in fuel. Pro tip: download the GasBuddy app and avoid the pricey stations along I-294 toll plazas, the local Costco in Bedford Park is one of the cheapest fill-up spots in the south suburbs.
eia.gov/petroleum/gasdiesel/How far in advance should I book a campground?
For summer weekends near Markham, reserve as soon as you can, ideally 3 to 6 months out. Indiana Dunes State Park opens reservations 6 months in advance through Indiana DNR's reservation system, and prime Lake Michigan sites disappear quickly when the window opens. Indiana Dunes National Park's Dunewood Campground books through Recreation.gov up to 6 months ahead. Forest Preserves of Cook County sites at Camp Sullivan and Bullfrog Lake book through fpdcc.com and tend to fill 1 to 2 months ahead for weekends. For weekday or shoulder-season trips, 2 to 4 weeks is usually plenty. Insider tip: set a Recreation.gov alert for cancellations, plenty open up the week of your trip.
recreation.gov/camping/campgrounds/234070What is driving an RV in the Chicago area really like?
Driving around Markham is more manageable than first-timers expect, especially if you stick to the suburbs and avoid downtown Chicago at rush hour. Markham sits right at the I-294 / I-57 / I-80 junction, so you can reach Indiana, Wisconsin, or southern Illinois without ever touching the Loop. Watch for low railroad bridges in older neighborhoods (some are under 12 feet, so know your RV's height), heavy weekday congestion on I-90/94 between 7-9am and 4-7pm, and toll roads (get the rig's I-Pass info from your host or pay online within 14 days). If city driving worries you, book RV delivery in Markham and start your trip already parked at the campground.
idot.illinois.gov/travel-information/index.htmlWhat amenities will I find at campgrounds near Markham?
Most campgrounds within an hour of Markham offer the essentials and then some. Indiana Dunes State Park has 140 electric sites, hot showers, flush toilets, a dump station, and a camp store. Bullfrog Lake Campground offers electric hookups, potable water fill-up, and a dump station run by the Forest Preserves of Cook County. Camp Sullivan provides cabins, RV sites with electric, modern restrooms, and even a climbing wall. For full hookups (water, sewer, 50-amp electric), private parks like Windy City Beach & Camping Resort are your best bet. Free dump stations are available at most Cook County forest preserve campgrounds. Pro tip: top off fresh water before leaving the campground, fill-up stations along Illinois highways are limited.
fpdcc.com/things-to-do/camping/What's actually inside an RV rental in Markham?
More than you'd expect. A typical motorhome rental in Markham comes fully equipped with a queen or king bed, convertible dinette and sofa beds, full kitchen (fridge/freezer, stove, microwave, sink, cookware), bathroom with toilet and shower, roof air conditioning, furnace, and seatbelted seating for the whole family. Most rigs include a TV, and many offer onboard generators, solar, and Wi-Fi hotspots, just check the listing's amenities list. Travel trailers and fifth wheels offer similar layouts without the cab. Campervan rental in Markham (Class B) trims things down for easier driving but still includes a bed, mini-kitchen, and often a wet bath. Tip: filter by Sleeps to match your group exactly and you'll never overpay for unused space.
nps.gov/indu/planyourvisit/campgrounds.htmWhat add-ons can I get with my Markham motorhome rental?
Hosts on RVezy love to make life easier with optional extras. Common add-ons for your motorhome rental in Markham include bedding and linen packages, kitchen kits with pots, plates, and utensils, portable BBQ grills, generators, bike racks, outdoor mats, camping chairs, and even pre-stocked propane and full water tanks. Many hosts offer delivery and setup for a per-mile fee, plus pickup and dump-station service so you don't have to handle the gray and black tanks yourself. Standard pickup is usually late morning with an early evening return; ask about flexible windows if your flight or campground reservation calls for it. Mileage policies, pet fees, and generator hours are spelled out clearly on each listing.
rvezy.com/rv-search?SearchAddress=Markham%2C%20IllinoisHow does payment and the security deposit work?
Payment is simple and secure: you pay through RVezy's platform with a credit card at the time of booking, no cash or off-platform transfers. A refundable security deposit (typically $500 to $1,500 depending on the rig) is held separately from your booking payment and released after the trip ends, assuming no damage or excessive cleaning. To avoid surprises, do a thorough walk-around video with your host at both pickup and drop-off, return the RV with the same fuel level, propane, and cleanliness, and stay within your mileage and generator-hour allowance. Any extra charges (like additional miles or a dump fee) come from the deposit, with the rest refunded to your card.
