2018 Forest River Travel TrailerOutstanding rental. RV was clean, linens were new, fully stocked with dishes and utensils. New camping chairs, new griddle cooktop. Owner left us with a wheeled tote for the grey/black tank which came in very handy after my wife took a 10 min shower and didn’t tell anyone. Had family games and probably 30 family movies on DVD. Perfect camper for a family, and owner was super responsive and kind. Highly recommend!

2022 Thor Motor Coach Class CMarlo was super responsive and helpful answering questions before we made the reservation all the way through to post-return. The RV was in terrific condition and super clean, everything worked well. The overview / walkthrough from her husband Steve at pickup was thorough and the one time I had to call him while on our trip he picked right up and answered our question. Highly recommend renting from them!

2021 Forest River Travel TrailerFirst time RVers. This was everything we expected and more. My daughters and I loved the spacious layout and the amenities that we don’t get tent camping. Being able to have ice cream at camp is a big plus! Kevin was very helpful and explained how to operate the RV in detail that was easy to understand. We will definitely look to rent from him again.

RV campgrounds in Bangor
Bangor was once known as the timber capital of the world, so you should have any trouble finding a cozy campground tucked away in the trees.

Frequently asked questions about renting an RV in Bangor, ME
How much does it cost to rent an RV in Bangor, ME?
An RV rental in Bangor is one of the most affordable ways to explore Maine's coast and North Woods. On RVezy, motorhomes typically run around $200 to $275 per night while towable trailers average closer to $125 to $175 per night, and many hosts offer weekly or monthly discounts. For a cheap RV rental in Bangor, book a travel trailer in the May or late September shoulder season when rates dip and Acadia crowds thin out. Pro tip: bundle your stay with a campsite at Paul Bunyan Campground (a few miles from the Bangor Waterfront) and you will spend less than a single hotel night in Bar Harbor.
rvezy.com/rv-search?SearchAddress=Bangor%2C+MaineWhat license do I need to rent an RV in Bangor?
Great news for first-time renters: your regular driver's license is all you need to rent an RV in Bangor. Maine does not require a Commercial Driver's License (CDL) or any special endorsement for personal-use motorhomes, campervans, or travel trailers booked through RVezy. Approved drivers are generally required to be at least 25 years old, and RVezy verifies your ID securely through the platform during checkout, so there is no DMV trip or paperwork on your end. Visiting from abroad? Bring your home country license plus an International Driving Permit (IDP) and you are set to cruise Route 1A toward Acadia.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360039008774-Understanding-approved-driver-requirementsWhat protection is included when I rent an RV in Bangor, ME?
You are covered from the moment you hit I-95. Every RV rental in Bangor booked through RVezy includes a renter protection plan plus 24/7 roadside assistance, so you can focus on the drive to Bar Harbor instead of worst-case scenarios. You choose your coverage level during checkout (not the host), which lets you pick the peace-of-mind tier that fits your trip, and the plan covers eligible physical damage to the RV. Roadside assistance is included with every protection plan, helping with things like flat tires, lockouts, and towing. Lock it in at checkout and enjoy the lobster rolls.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/34008759079835-RVezy-renter-protection-plans-in-detailWhat happens if I need to cancel my Bangor RV trip?
Booking is low-risk. RVezy sets the cancellation policy for every RV rental in Bangor booking (not individual hosts), which means consistent, transparent rules across the platform. There is a money-back grace period right after you book, and cancellations made further in advance of your trip generally qualify for stronger refunds. If a host cancels your trip, RVezy refunds you in full or offers travel credits so you are not left stranded. You can review the full policy in the RVezy Help Center before you book, but the bottom line is: you are not locked in the moment you click book.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360037736674-Understanding-the-cancellation-policy-for-guestsCan I bring my dog on a Bangor RV rental?
Absolutely, and Maine is one of the most dog-loving states in the country. Filter for a pet-friendly RV rental in Bangor on RVezy and you will find motorhomes and trailers where pets are welcome (hosts set their own pet rules, so check the listing). Once you are rolling, the Bangor City Forest's trail network is leash-friendly, and Acadia National Park is famously dog-welcoming, allowing leashed pets on more than 100 miles of hiking trails and most carriage roads. Pro tip: Paul Bunyan Campground and Pleasant Hill Campground both welcome well-behaved dogs, making them easy bases for a tail-wagging Maine adventure.
nps.gov/acad/planyourvisit/pets.htmCan the RV be delivered to my campground in Bangor?
Yes, and it is the easiest way to start a Maine trip. Many Bangor hosts offer RV delivery, meaning they will tow or drive the RV directly to your campsite at Paul Bunyan Campground, Pleasant Hill, the Bangor/Holden KOA, or even a private property, then level it, hook it up, and walk you through every system before handing over the keys. This is a game-changer if it is your first time renting an RV, or if you are flying into Bangor International Airport (BGR) and prefer not to drive a 30-foot motorhome straight off the lot. Delivery fees are set by each host based on distance, and you can filter for Delivery on RVezy to see available options.
rvezy.com/rv-search?SearchAddress=Bangor%2C+MaineHow far can I drive on a Bangor RV trip?
You can reach an incredible amount of Maine from Bangor in under three hours. Acadia National Park and Bar Harbor sit just 45 to 50 miles away (about an hour via I-395 and Route 1A), Baxter State Park and Mount Katahdin are roughly 90 miles north, Camden Hills State Park is about 1.5 hours south, and the Calais border crossing into New Brunswick is about a 2-hour drive east. Many hosts offer generous daily mileage, and some list an RV rental with unlimited mileage, which is ideal for a longer Bangor RV trip up the Down East coast. Always confirm the mileage allowance on the listing page, and message the host directly if you are planning a route over 200 miles a day.
maine.gov/mdot/Where are the best campgrounds near Bangor, ME?
You will be spoiled for choice. Some of the best campgrounds near Bangor include Paul Bunyan Campground (just a few miles from the Bangor Waterfront with full hookups), Pleasant Hill Campground in Hermon (spacious sites and a fishing pond), Pumpkin Patch RV Resort in Hermon (big-rig friendly with long pull-throughs), Bangor/Holden KOA on Route 1A (heated pool and an easy launchpad toward Acadia), and Pushaw Lake Campground near Orono (lakeside sites with water and electric). Most are seasonal, typically open mid-May through mid-October. Pro tip: book Paul Bunyan early if you are attending a Maine Savings Amphitheater concert, since it fills fast on show weekends.
paulbunyancampground.com/When is the best time of year for RV camping in Bangor?
The sweet spot for RV camping in Bangor is mid-June through mid-September, when daytime highs typically sit in the 70s to low 80s F and evenings cool to the 50s for perfect campfire weather. July and August are peak (and busiest around Acadia), while late September delivers spectacular fall foliage along the Penobscot River with far thinner crowds. May and early June are quieter and cheaper but bring blackflies, so pack repellent. Most private campgrounds in the Bangor area run mid-May through mid-October, and the shoulder seasons are ideal for booking both rigs and sites. Pro tip: target the last two weeks of September for foliage that rivals Vermont without the tour buses.
weather.gov/car/I have never driven an RV before. Will I be okay starting in Bangor?
You will do great, and Bangor is a forgiving place to learn. Roads around the city are wide, traffic is light compared to most US metros, and the drive to Acadia is mostly on four-lane Route 1A with gentle terrain. Every RVezy host provides a hands-on orientation at pickup, walking you through propane, slides, the water system, the generator, and dump procedures so you are not guessing. If you would rather skip city driving altogether, choose a delivery listing and the RV will be set up and ready at your campsite. First time renting an RV? Start with a Class C motorhome or a 20 to 24-foot travel trailer, message your host with any questions, and you will be a pro by Hermon.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360039008774-Understanding-approved-driver-requirementsWhat if something goes wrong with the RV on my trip?
You are never alone on the road. Every RVezy booking includes 24/7 roadside assistance as part of the protection plan, so a flat tire on Route 1A or a tripped breaker at your campsite is one phone call away from being handled. Your host is also a direct lifeline, and most Bangor hosts respond within minutes for things like awning quirks or appliance questions. For mechanical issues, roadside assistance can dispatch local pros, and RVezy's support team is available before, during, and after your trip. The takeaway: book confidently knowing help is always at hand.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/34008759079835-RVezy-renter-protection-plans-in-detailCan I take my Bangor RV rental into Canada?
Cross-border trips into Canada are sometimes possible, but they require host approval and the right insurance documentation. Bangor sits roughly 90 miles from the Calais/St. Stephen border crossing into New Brunswick, making a Maine-to-Maritimes RV road trip from Bangor a tempting option. Message the host directly from the listing before booking to confirm Canadian travel is allowed and that proper coverage is in place, and bring your passport plus the vehicle's registration. Heads up: travel into Mexico is not permitted on any RVezy rental because insurance coverage does not extend there. For US-only trips, you are free to roam New England and beyond as long as you stay within the host's mileage policy.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360039340074-Insurance-coverage-validityWhat kind of fuel mileage should I expect, and what does gas cost around Bangor?
Budget smart and you will be pleasantly surprised. Class C motorhomes around Bangor typically get 8 to 10 miles per gallon, Class B campervans deliver 15 to 20 mpg, and a truck towing a travel trailer usually lands at 10 to 14 mpg. Maine gas prices generally track close to the national average, and Bangor has plenty of large-format stations along Hogan Road, Stillwater Avenue, and the I-95 exits that easily fit a 30-foot rig. For a round-trip from Bangor to Acadia (about 100 miles), expect to spend roughly $40 to $60 in fuel for most motorhomes. Pro tip: fill up in Bangor or Ellsworth before heading onto Mount Desert Island, where prices climb in tourist season.
eia.gov/petroleum/gasdiesel/How far in advance should I book campgrounds near Bangor?
Book early and you will have the pick of the lots. For July and August, reserve private campgrounds like Paul Bunyan, Pleasant Hill, and Pumpkin Patch RV Resort 2 to 4 months ahead, especially for weekends with concerts at Maine Savings Amphitheater. For Maine state parks like Lamoine (about an hour east of Bangor) and Camden Hills, reservations open through the official Maine state parks reservation system and the most desirable oceanfront sites get scooped up quickly each winter. Acadia's Blackwoods and Schoodic Woods campgrounds book through Recreation.gov up to six months in advance and often sell out by spring. Insider tip: midweek arrivals (Sunday to Wednesday) are dramatically easier to snag than Friday check-ins.
recreation.gov/camping/gateways/2725What are driving conditions like around Bangor?
Driving in Bangor is genuinely easy compared to most New England cities. I-95 and I-395 run right through town with wide lanes and modest traffic, and the main route to Acadia (Route 1A through Holden and Ellsworth) is a comfortable four-lane road with gentle hills. Watch for moose, especially at dawn and dusk on roads north of town toward Baxter State Park. Avoid narrow downtown streets like Exchange Street with a big rig, and skip the Park Loop Road in Acadia with anything over 22 feet because parts of it have size restrictions. In summer, expect Friday afternoon backups on Route 3 heading onto Mount Desert Island.
maine.gov/mdot/What hookups and amenities do Bangor area campgrounds offer?
You will find full-service comfort almost everywhere. Most private campgrounds near Bangor including Paul Bunyan, Bangor/Holden KOA, Pleasant Hill, and Pumpkin Patch RV Resort offer full hookups (water, sewer, and 30 or 50-amp electric), on-site dump stations, potable water fills, Wi-Fi, hot showers, and laundry. Maine state parks like Lamoine offer more rustic setups, usually with water spigots and a central dump station but no individual sewer hookups. If you need to dump or refill water between campgrounds, most major KOAs allow non-guest dumping for a small fee. Pro tip: confirm 50-amp availability if you have booked a larger Class A, since some older sites still run 30-amp only.
koa.com/campgrounds/bangor/What features and amenities come with a typical Bangor RV rental?
You are getting a home on wheels. Most Bangor RV rentals on RVezy come fully equipped with sleeping for 4 to 8, a kitchen with a fridge, stove, microwave and sink, a bathroom with a toilet and shower, climate control (furnace and roof A/C), and seatbelted travel seats. Larger Class A and Class C motorhome rental Bangor options often add a generator, outdoor speakers, awnings with LED lighting, and a TV with antenna or satellite. Cell and Wi-Fi service is hit or miss in Maine's North Woods, so plan to use your phone's hotspot. Pro tip: campervan rental Bangor options (Class B) are perfect for couples chasing Acadia sunrise on Cadillac Mountain because they are nimble enough to grab tight parking spots.
rvezy.com/rv-search?SearchAddress=Bangor%2C+MaineWhat add-ons can I get with my Bangor RV rental, and how does pickup work?
Hosts make it easy to customize your trip. Popular Bangor add-ons include linen and kitchen kits, bike racks, kayaks or paddleboards, camp chairs, outdoor grills, and generator use (often a small fee per hour over an included allowance). Pickup typically happens at the host's home in or near Bangor, usually a 30 to 60 minute walkthrough where they show you every system, or you can choose RV delivery directly to your campsite or to Bangor International Airport (BGR). Mileage policies vary: many hosts include 100 to 150 miles per night with overage charged per mile, while others offer unlimited mileage. Always confirm pickup time, return time, and mileage on the listing before booking.
rvezy.com/rv-search?SearchAddress=Bangor%2C+MaineHow does payment and the security deposit work on RVezy?
Payment is straightforward and secure. You pay through RVezy's platform with a credit or debit card (never directly to the host), and the total is broken down into the nightly rate, host add-ons, the protection plan you selected, taxes, and the RVezy service fee. A refundable security deposit is held separately from your booking payment; the amount is set by each host and shown clearly on the listing. As long as you return the RV on time, with the correct fuel and propane levels and free of new damage, the deposit is released back to you after the trip. Pro tip: take date-stamped photos of the RV inside and out at pickup and dropoff to keep everything smooth.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360038106214-How-the-security-deposit-worksWhat are the best road trips I can take from Bangor?
Bangor is a launchpad to some of the East Coast's most iconic drives. The classic RV road trip from Bangor is the 45-mile run to Acadia National Park and Bar Harbor (about 90 minutes via I-395 and Route 1A) for Cadillac Mountain sunrises and Sand Beach. Head 90 miles north to Baxter State Park and Mount Katahdin for the northern terminus of the Appalachian Trail, or cruise 90 miles south to Camden and Rockland for working harbors and lobster shacks. The Schoodic Peninsula loop (about 75 miles east) offers Acadia's beauty with a fraction of the crowds, and the Down East coast toward Lubec and Quoddy Head (the easternmost point in the US) is roughly a 3-hour drive of pure Maine coastline.
