Cruise America C-25, Chicago, written on 11 days ago

The staff were very attentive and took the time to explain how the MotorHome worked. We didn't check at the start but there was no tray in the microwave and it wasn't practical to use it. The clothes hangers in the cupboard were not of good quality and all fell down every time we drove. Above all the Motorhome is not at all adapted to winter, the heating is not sufficient at all and the vehicle is certainly not insulated for this period. I would advise future customers not to rent with Cruise America in winter, but why not at another time of year? (Personally, we returned the MH 4 days before because we were too cold both during the day and at night, even though we were plugged in electrically).

Cruise America C-30, Chicago, written on 5 months ago

Unfortunately, all the indicator lights kept coming on while driving. ABS and cruise control, for example, were often not working. The engine was extremely loud, we could barely understand our own words. Even after several (expensive) phone calls and WhatsApp, we received no help. Cruse America simply broke off contact with us, even though we were given the name of a workshop. They had also forgotten to give us the key for the outside lockers, so we had to keep putting everything in the camper when we stopped to make sure nothing was stolen. Beds extremely uncomfortable. We travelled to our final destination 3 days earlier and skipped stops that were not on the direct route so that we had to drive as little as possible. Windscreen wipers virtually without function. We then returned the camper earlier.

+++ 1year old RV with just 50k miles - we had trouble with the electricity for the AC, microwave and plugs in the car when not hooked up - water from the shower ran out of the RV, so obviously a problem with the pipes all in all, we enjoyed the trip and the problems were minor for us so we'd rent again at Cruise America

Top tips for your trip to Chicago

Chicago starts to bloom in late April and May, with average temperatures around 15-20 degrees. However, to really make the most of everything on offer in Chicago and beyond, summer is the best time to rent a motorhome in Chicago. Temperatures average around 26 degrees, perfect for outdoor living and activities and enjoying the beautiful landscape.

  • Art and Culture in Chicago
    Art and Culture in Chicago

    Chicago's strong music offering showcases its unique blend of Western influences with African American, Asian-American, Native-American, and Hispanic traditions. Don't overlook sport, either. Sporting News has named Chicago 'Best Sporting City' three times; visitors can watch hockey, baseball, football, and basketball.

  • Lakes and Rivers
    Lakes and Rivers

    Chicago is located in one of the wettest parts of America; wetlands, rivers and streams surround Chicago, plus the massive Great Lakes for those who want to camp waterside and enjoy kayaking and canoeing. South of Chicago, Lake Sara and Rend Lake offer fascinating wetland habitats, meadows and forests. With campervan hire in Chicago, you can explore these areas at your own pace.

  • National Parks
    National Parks

    Just outside Chicago is the Indiana Dunes National Park, a 24-kilometre area along the coastline with rugged dunes, forests and wetlands, a perfect base for your campervan with easy access to the city. Hire a campervan in Chicago and explore further east to Cuyahoga Valley National Park, with forests, waterfalls and teaming with wildlife.

Campervan offers for families in Chicago

If you want to go on a family camping holiday in Chicago, we recommend a large motorhome. Alcove models are very popular with families with children, as the motorhomes are spacious and have several sleeping and seating areas.

Best campervan routes in Chicago

Shawnee National Forest, Illinois
Five hundred fifty kilometres due south of Chicago on the I-57 lies Shawnee National Forest, a massive park covering 725 square kilometres and with an impressive array of different areas. The park features green canyons, marshland, rocky bluffs, and dense forestland. It is also a paradise for hiking, biking, rock climbing, canoeing, and wildlife watching. With a camper van for hire in Chicago, you can easily take on this adventure and explore all that Shawnee National Forest offers.

Route 66
This is the original all-American road trip, although the I-40 has superseded Route 66; however, more than three-quarters of the original route is preserved. Starting in Chicago, this 3,268-kilometre journey will take several days before you end up at Santa Monica Pier in Southern California. With a motorhome for hire in Chicago, you could spin it out over several weeks; it depends on where you want to stop and for how long.

Nashville, Tennessee
Nashville is around seven hours from Chicago. It is more than just a destination for country music lovers. It pays homage to honky-tonk and Elvis, with many attractions centred around famous musicians. Take I-65 south of Chicago for 758 kilometres or a similar route that runs parallel on Interstates 57 and 24 through Illinois and Kentucky.

Sites of interests and excursions in Chicago

Effigy Mounds National Monument
The Effigy Mounds National Monument is located in one of the most picturesque sections of the Upper Mississippi River Valley, 402 kilometres west of Chicago. Two hundred mounds in the shape of animals populate this area and are considered sacred symbols of the Native Americans who constructed them. This area is beautiful, and you can spend a few days exploring it with your campervan.

Chicago River Cruise
It's worth taking a river cruise to admire the cityscape from the waterway. Informative and architecture-based tours provide fascinating stories about the Windy City. Sunset cruises are particularly memorable, or you can opt for a dining tour. There are also dry land tours led by some famous internet tour guides.

Kayaking
Kayaking goes hand in hand with hiring a campervan in Chicago, right? Another way to get to the water is by kayaking on the Chicago River or lakefront. Several watersport companies offer trips through the city's heart or on Lake Michigan. You can also take a night tour and view the Merchandise Mart, which is covered in rotating digital art displays projected onto the building. It's a unique view of the city.
