2011 Coleman Travel TrailerRenting this Coleman Travel trailer from Crystal has been a very pleasant experience. Crystal was always very quick to respond to messages. Trailer was very clean and comfortable. The furnace did not work. On the upside of that, there were two heaters provided.

2019 Thor Motor Coach Class COur hostess was great, had great communication and responded quickly to everything !!! We did have 2 issues, first with the generator while driving, we needed the generator for the A/C in the back of the Rv for our elderly mother and ourselves sitting in the back with outside temperatures in the high 90’s. At one point we saw smoke in the Rv we told our hostess, they immediately came to check the generator, they double checked everything for us. They said if we wanted to we could cancel our trip and receive a full refund. . . They left the decision up to us , we checked the temperatures going to North Dakota it seems mild and not as hot as NM weather so we decided to continue. Everything was great on our trip!! When we used A/C it was good BUT once we return to the hot NM weather we had issues again !!! We couldn’t unload fast enough and get back into our vehicles so we could cool Down in our vehicles. . . . . Our second issues was the back bed it was VERY VERY BOUNCY!! Hard for my mother and us to rest back there while Moving. We aren’t sure if it was the mattress it’s self or the shocks???? We all have travel trailers this was our first Time in RV so we don’t know if that’s normal . . . . The the RV ran great it was clean and well taken care of. . . We all slept well in the couches beds when the RV was not in motion . . .

Frequently asked questions about renting an RV in East Grand Forks, MN
How much does it cost to rent an RV in East Grand Forks?
RV rental in East Grand Forks is one of the better values in Minnesota, with most travel trailers starting around $90 to $150 per night and Class C motorhomes typically running $175 to $275 per night. Campervans land in between, depending on amenities. To find a cheap RV rental in East Grand Forks, book midweek pickups, travel in May or September when demand around the Red River Valley dips, and look for hosts offering multi-night discounts. Pro tip: rentals booked 60 days ahead of summer Catfish Days or the Potato Bowl USA weekend tend to be 15 to 20 percent cheaper than last-minute bookings, so lock in early.
exploreminnesota.com/profile/east-grand-forks/2192What license do I need to rent an RV in East Grand Forks, MN?
Good news: a regular Class D driver's license is all you need to rent an RV in East Grand Forks, Minnesota. There's no CDL or special endorsement required for any RV on the RVezy platform, whether it's a compact campervan or a 32-foot Class A motorhome. You'll need to be at least 25 years old, and ID verification happens quickly through the RVezy platform after you book. Visiting from outside the US? Bring your home-country license along with an International Driving Permit (around $20 from your local auto club). Most first-time renters are surprised how straightforward the whole process is.
dps.mn.gov/divisions/dvs/Pages/default.aspxWhat protection is included with my East Grand Forks RV rental?
Every RV rental in East Grand Forks booked through RVezy includes a renter protection plan plus 24/7 roadside assistance, so you can hit Highway 2 toward Bemidji or roll north to Roseau with real peace of mind. The protection plan covers most physical damage to the RV during your trip, and you choose your coverage level during checkout. While it is not auto insurance in the traditional sense, it provides meaningful financial protection if something unexpected happens. Pro tip: pick your protection tier based on your route, longer northern Minnesota trips with gravel forest roads benefit from the higher coverage option.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/34008759079835-RVezy-renter-protection-plans-in-detailWhat if I need to cancel my East Grand Forks RV trip?
Booking is low-risk: RVezy sets the cancellation policy (not individual hosts), and every reservation comes with a money-back grace period right after you book. After that window, the refund amount depends on how far out from your trip you cancel. Because the policy is standardized across the platform, you will not see different cancellation terms on each listing. If a host cancels on you, RVezy refunds you or offers travel credits so your East Grand Forks RV trip stays on track. Pro tip: if a major Red River flood watch or blizzard warning hits before your trip, contact RVezy support right away to discuss your options.
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 East Grand Forks?
Absolutely, pet-friendly RV rental in East Grand Forks is easy to find: just toggle the Pet-Friendly filter on RVezy and you'll see plenty of hosts who welcome dogs (and sometimes cats). Once you've landed at Red River State Recreation Area, your dog will love the riverside trails and the Greenway's 20-plus miles of paved paths connecting East Grand Forks to Grand Forks, ND. Sherlock Park and the off-leash dog area near the Greenway are local favorites. Pro tip: message the host before booking to confirm any pet fee and ask about bedding, some hosts provide dog-friendly throws so your pup doesn't have to stay off the couch.
dnr.state.mn.us/state_parks/park.html?id=spk00269Can the RV be delivered to my campground in East Grand Forks?
Yes, RV delivery in East Grand Forks is offered by many hosts, and it's the easiest way to start your trip stress-free. Filter for Delivery on RVezy and you'll find hosts who will drop the RV at Red River State Recreation Area, your driveway in the Sherlock or Cathedral neighborhoods, or even a friend's place across the bridge in Grand Forks, ND. They'll level it, hook up power and water, and walk you through every system from the furnace to the black tank. Delivery is perfect if you're first time renting an RV or just don't want to tow a 28-foot trailer through downtown. Pro tip: ask about delivery to Turtle River State Park, only 22 miles west, it's a popular drop-off spot.
egf.mn/How far can I drive on an East Grand Forks RV trip?

Many hosts on RVezy offer 100 to 150 free miles per night, and some list RV rental with unlimited mileage which is ideal for longer loops. Additional miles typically run $0.35 to $0.50 each. Pro tip: if you're planning a big RV road trip from East Grand Forks across the prairie to the Badlands, filter for unlimited mileage upfront, it almost always saves money versus paying per mile.
dot.state.mn.us/Where are the best campgrounds near East Grand Forks?
You've got great options for RV camping in East Grand Forks. Red River State Recreation Area is right in town with full hookups, paved pads, and direct access to the Greenway trail system. Turtle River State Park (22 miles west in ND) offers wooded sites and a small swimming pond. Grand Forks Campground & RV Park sits just across the river with pull-throughs and laundry. Farther afield, Lake Bronson State Park (60 miles north) is a hidden gem with quiet lakeside sites. Book Minnesota state park sites through the DNR reservation system up to 120 days ahead, summer weekends fill quickly. Pro tip: Red River SRA's riverside loop is the most coveted, snag it Tuesday morning when cancellations post.
dnr.state.mn.us/state_parks/park.html?id=spk00269When is the best time to visit East Grand Forks in an RV?
The sweet spot for RV camping in East Grand Forks is mid-May through late September, with daytime highs from 70°F in May to the mid-80s°F in July and comfortable 70s°F in September. June through August is peak season with long daylight (sunset after 9 PM in June) and full campground services. Spring runs cool and can see Red River flooding, so check conditions in April. Fall brings golden cottonwoods along the Greenway and far fewer crowds. Winters are genuinely cold (subzero common January and February), so most rentals operate May to October. Pro tip: early September is the local insider's favorite, warm days, cool sleeping weather, no mosquitoes, and Catfish Days energy still lingering.
weather.gov/fgf/I've never rented an RV before. Will I be okay in East Grand Forks?
You'll do great, East Grand Forks is one of the easiest places in Minnesota to start. The terrain is flat, traffic is light outside of UND game days, and Highway 2 and I-29 are wide and straightforward. Every RVezy host gives you a hands-on orientation at pickup covering the generator, slide-outs, propane, leveling, and dumping. You can message the host any time during your trip, and 24/7 roadside assistance is included if anything feels off. For your first time renting an RV, pick a Class C motorhome or a 24-foot travel trailer, both drive like a large van. Pro tip: do a practice loop around the Cabela's parking lot before heading north, it's huge and empty most mornings.
dot.state.mn.us/What if something goes wrong with my RV during the trip?
You are covered. Every RVezy booking with a protection plan includes 24/7 roadside assistance, so whether you have a flat on Highway 220 heading to Drayton or a furnace acting up at Lake Bemidji, help is one call away. Roadside handles tire changes, jump-starts, lockouts, fuel delivery, and towing. For anything mechanical or appliance-related, message your host directly through the RVezy app, most local East Grand Forks hosts know their rigs inside-out and can troubleshoot the water heater or slide-out in minutes. RVezy customer support is also available before, during, and after your trip. Pro tip: save the roadside number in your phone and snap a photo of the RV's VIN plate at pickup, it speeds up any service call.
rvezy.com/insurance-and-protectionCan I take my East Grand Forks RV rental across the border into Canada?
Cross-border travel from East Grand Forks into Manitoba is sometimes allowed, but it depends on the host's preference and the protection plan terms, so message the host directly from the listing before you book to confirm. The Pembina border crossing is just 65 miles north, putting Winnipeg about 2.5 hours away. Travel into Mexico is not permitted on any RVezy rental. You will need passports for everyone in the vehicle and a copy of the rental agreement at the border. Pro tip: popular Canadian routes from East Grand Forks include Winnipeg's Forks Market and Whiteshell Provincial Park, both make excellent long-weekend additions to a motorhome rental East Grand Forks itinerary.
cbp.gov/travel/us-citizens/know-before-you-goWhat should I budget for fuel on my East Grand Forks RV trip?
Fuel is one of your biggest variables, so plan smart. Class B campervans get 18 to 22 MPG, Class C motorhomes average 10 to 14 MPG, and Class A rigs run 7 to 10 MPG. Travel trailers depend on your tow vehicle but expect a 25 to 40 percent MPG hit. Gas prices in East Grand Forks typically run slightly below the Minnesota state average thanks to nearby North Dakota refineries, and stations on Gateway Drive and Highway 2 are convenient and RV-friendly. Pro tip: fuel up on the North Dakota side in Grand Forks when possible, prices are often 10 to 20 cents cheaper per gallon, and the Costco on 32nd Avenue South has the lowest pump price in the region.
eia.gov/petroleum/gasdiesel/How far in advance should I book a campground near East Grand Forks?
For the best campgrounds near East Grand Forks, book as early as you can. Minnesota State Parks (including Red River State Recreation Area, Lake Bemidji, and Itasca) open reservations 120 days ahead through the DNR online reservation system, and prime summer weekends, especially around July 4th and Catfish Days in August, fill within hours. North Dakota state parks like Turtle River open bookings up to a year out. Private parks like Grand Forks Campground & RV Park are usually bookable 6 months ahead. Pro tip: set a calendar reminder for exactly 120 days before your target Friday, log in at 8 AM Central, and you'll snag the riverside sites that everyone else misses.
dnr.state.mn.us/reservations/index.htmlWhat are driving conditions like around East Grand Forks?
Driving is genuinely easy here, East Grand Forks sits on flat prairie with wide highways, gentle grades, and almost no mountain or canyon driving until you head west into the Badlands. Highway 2, I-29, and Highway 220 are the main RV routes and all handle big rigs comfortably. Watch for spring Red River flooding (March to early May can close river-adjacent roads), summer thunderstorms with crosswinds on open prairie, and winter ice from November to March. Wildlife crossings (deer especially) spike at dawn and dusk on rural stretches. Pro tip: avoid driving the Sorlie Bridge into Grand Forks, ND during UND hockey traffic on weekend evenings, the Kennedy Bridge on Highway 2 is the smarter route for any motorhome.
511mn.org/How do I prepare for cold weather if I'm renting an RV in East Grand Forks in shoulder season?
Shoulder-season RV trips here are an adventure, and the right rig makes them comfortable. For April, May, late September, and October bookings, filter for RVs with heated holding tanks, an enclosed underbelly, and a working furnace, most Class C motorhomes in East Grand Forks come equipped because hosts know the climate. Plug into shore power at Red River State Recreation Area (50-amp sites available) to run the heater all night without draining batteries. Bring extra propane, the furnace burns through it fast when temps drop below 40°F. Pro tip: ask your host for the heated-water-hose if you're booking before mid-May or after mid-October, frozen city water lines are the number-one shoulder-season hassle.
dnr.state.mn.us/state_parks/park.html?id=spk00269What amenities will I find at campgrounds near East Grand Forks?
You'll be well-equipped. Red River State Recreation Area offers 50/30-amp electric, water hookups, sewer at many sites, a dump station, flush toilets, hot showers, and free Wi-Fi near the office. Turtle River State Park has electric sites, a dump station, and a swimming pond. Grand Forks Campground & RV Park is full hookup with laundry and a pool. For dumping mid-trip, the Flying J on Gateway Drive has a 24-hour dump station, and Red River SRA's dump is free for registered campers. Potable water fills are available at all three campgrounds. Pro tip: the artesian well at Turtle River State Park is famously cold and clean, locals fill jugs there year-round.
dnr.state.mn.us/state_parks/park.html?id=spk00269What features and beds will my East Grand Forks RV rental have?
RVs on RVezy in East Grand Forks come well-equipped for family RV trip East Grand Forks adventures. Expect a full kitchen with fridge, stove, microwave, and sink; a bathroom with toilet and shower; and sleeping for 4 to 8 depending on the rig. Class C motorhomes typically have a queen bed, bunks, and a convertible dinette. Travel trailers often add a slide-out for extra living space. Most include air conditioning, a furnace, propane, and seatbelts for travel. Many hosts offer Wi-Fi hotspots, generators, and outdoor TVs as add-ons. Pro tip: if you're bringing kids, filter for bunkhouse floorplans, they're abundant in the Red River Valley market and a game-changer for sanity on rainy days at Itasca.
exploreminnesota.com/things-to-do/road-tripsWhat add-ons and pickup options should I know about?
Hosts on RVezy in East Grand Forks offer plenty of useful add-ons: camp chairs, outdoor mats, bedding and linen packages ($30 to $75), kitchen kits, generators ($25 to $50/night), bike racks, and even kayaks for paddling the Red River. Pickup is usually at the host's address in East Grand Forks or Grand Forks, ND, with delivery available for a flat fee or per-mile rate. Mileage policies vary, common packages are 100 free miles per night, with some unlimited-mileage options ideal for cross-state trips. Pro tip: bundle delivery plus a linen package on your first booking, it removes the two biggest first-timer headaches and lets you start your East Grand Forks RV trip stress-free at the campsite.
exploreminnesota.com/profile/east-grand-forks/2192How does payment and the security deposit work?
Payment is simple and secure: you pay through RVezy at checkout (no cash to the host), and the total includes the rental rate, your chosen protection plan, RVezy service fees, and any add-ons. A refundable security deposit is held separately from your booking payment, typically $500 to $1,500 depending on the RV's value, and it is released after the host confirms the rig came back in good shape. To avoid any deposit issues, do a thorough walkaround video at pickup and drop-off, dump tanks before return if required, and refuel to the pickup level. Pro tip: take a quick video of the odometer, fuel gauge, and propane level at pickup, it is the simplest insurance against any post-trip surprises.
