Best time: Mar-May, Sep-OctBest pickup:Las Vegas/St. George/Salt Lake City
5-9 days
Moab, Arches, and Canyonlands
Moab trips can involve long desert drives, popular campgrounds, and heat swings, so mileage and sleeping layout matter.

3-7 days
Joshua Tree and Mojave
A smaller RV can make desert towns, park roads, and short campground stays easier than a larger motorhome.

When Southwest RV trips work best
Match the season to the route before you choose a pickup city and RV size.
Death Valley summer heat
Death Valley summer camping runs mid-April to mid-October with only a few campgrounds open because midnight temperatures can still be over 100 degrees. NPS recommends developed campgrounds only in summer.
Grand Canyon RV fit
Grand Canyon South Rim Mather Campground and Trailer Village are open all year. Mather has no RV hookups, Trailer Village has full hookups, and NPS says in-park campgrounds book well in advance.
Zion reservations and RV size
Watchman standard sites can be reserved up to 6 months ahead. Starting June 7, 2026, vehicles over 35 feet 9 inches long, 7 feet 10 inches wide, 11 feet 4 inches high, or 50,000 pounds cannot drive Zion-Mt. Carmel Highway.
Arches 2026 entry planning
NPS announced Arches will not require advanced timed-entry reservations in 2026. A valid entrance pass is still required, and Devils Garden Campground plus Fiery Furnace hikes still require reservations.
Southwest RV rental FAQ
What is the best city for a Southwest RV rental?
Las Vegas is the easiest starting point for many canyon and desert loops. Phoenix, Salt Lake City, Los Angeles, and Denver can be better when your route leans toward Arizona, Utah, Southern California, or Colorado.
Which RV type works best for a Southwest road trip?
Class C RVs are practical for families and longer campground stays. Camper vans can be easier for shorter park-hopping routes, tight parking, and desert towns.
When should I book a Southwest RV rental?
Book earlier for spring, fall, holidays, and national park routes. Summer trips need more heat planning, while winter can be better for lower-desert routes but less predictable at higher elevations.
Can I do a one-way Southwest RV rental?
One-way trips depend on the rental company, pickup city, return city, dates, and vehicle. Compare the exact route, drop fee, mileage allowance, and return terms before assuming one-way is available.
Can I visit multiple states in one Southwest RV trip?
Yes, many Southwest routes cross Nevada, Arizona, Utah, California, and Colorado. Check mileage, allowed travel areas, pickup and return locations, and route timing before making the loop too wide.
Do I need a special license to rent an RV in the Southwest?
Most standard rental RVs can usually be driven with a regular driver license. The rental company sets driver age, license, and vehicle-specific requirements, so confirm the exact terms before checkout.
