Kandice VincentMy friend Mike came back from his weekend camping trip looking more stressed than when he left, which I thought was kinda weird.
Turns out, the camper van he rented was a total disaster—it had a funky smell, the heater didn’t work, and halfway through the trip, the battery died! Not exactly the cozy adventure he had in mind.
A good camper van should be reliable and road-trip ready, so you can focus on enjoying the journey.
For those looking to get on the road stress-free, here are Toronto’s best camper van rental services.
How much does it cost to rent a camper van in Toronto?
Renting a camper van in Toronto typically costs between $100 to $250 per night, depending on the van’s size. Budget-friendly options with basic features start at $100, while fully equipped, luxury camper vans can go up to $250 or more.
Some rentals also charge additional fees for mileage, insurance, or extra equipment like camping gear. Prices tend to be higher during peak travel seasons, so booking in advance can help you secure a better deal.
1. Campr
Campr claims to be Ontario’s only curated camper van RV rental. Every vehicle is designed and converted in-house, meaning they’ve thought through every little thing to make van life as smooth as possible.
We love that their vans come stocked with everything from cutlery and cookware to cleaning supplies, olive oil, coffee, and even a French press!
Another huge plus is their off-grid electrical and heating systems. Thanks to batteries, solar panels, and alternator charging, you can power phones and laptops.
And if you’re braving a chilly night, their fuel-tank-tapped heater keeps you warm without draining the battery.
They even provide 24/7 roadside assistance, a big plus if you’re heading off the beaten path. Oh, and did we mention pets are welcome?
Keep in mind that they’re a bit on the pricey side—not the best choice if you’re on a tight budget.
Very impressed with the tech side of the van
“Rented Atlas for a weeks camping in northern Ontario- with my husband and two children age 6 and 9. We had no tech mishaps and were very impressed with the tech side of the van. With the bug nets and the fans we had comfortable temps sleeping despite hot July weather. My boys had a blast and we will definitely plan to do it again.”

Clean and came with all the amenities
“Rented the van for a weekend in algonquin and it was a fantastic experience. the van was clean and came with all the amenities including a heater that came in handy when the temperature dropped at night. Chris is a gem to work with – check in/out process was a breeze. also very helpful that they send you a bunch of videos on how to use the van before hand you can review them first and then you can ask any f/u questions during the check in process.”

2. Indie Campers
Indie Campers was founded in 2013 by two friends with a mission: to make camper van travel more accessible and affordable. And with over 500,000 nights rented and travelers from 130+ countries, it’s safe to say they’re doing something right.
One of their most popular camper van rental models is the Nomad, which comes with a built-in stationary heating system and a hot shower. It also has a fully stocked kitchen featuring a gas stove, fridge, and dining space.
Essential safety gear like a car jack, triangle, and vests are included, as well as 24/7 assistance, giving you peace of mind.
As a cherry on top, they offer great online deals, where you can score up to 20% off! That said, some renters have told us about surprise hidden charges, so read the fine print carefully before booking.
Indie Campers Toronto is the best
“Indie Campers Toronto is the best, they created the most smooth process to us, always patient and helpful throughout the whole process, we booked the Solis and we couldn’t go wrong!”

Super experience with Indie Campers Toronto
“Super experience with Indie Campers Toronto. We took the Solis model for 11 days and it was perfect for two! Easy to drive and very modern. It completely met our expectations.”

3. Cruise Canada
Since 1972, Cruise Canada has been the go-to rental service for camping vacations, road trips, tailgate parties, and even music festivals! They’re also the largest RV rental company in North America, with over 100 rental centers.
For couples or small families, their 19′ Compact RV is a great option. The walk-through design and 6.5-foot ceilings make it comfy even for taller travelers, and the dinette folds into an extra bed—perfect for two adults and a child.
Need something a bit bigger? The 21′ Compact Plus sleeps up to four people, with a spacious cab-over bed, rear dinette conversion, and a centrally located kitchen.
We did hear about engine issues, so ask about recent maintenance to avoid unwanted surprises.
Keep an eye on their Rental Deals page to snag offers like half-price miles, 10% off long-term rentals, and one-way specials.
My only choice for renting a recreational vehicle in Toronto
“This is the third year of renting from Cruise Canada and the staff have been superb, the check out experience efficient, and the return process fast and easy. The staff are always professional and are really friendly. If I’m renting a recreational vehicle in the Toronto area, this will be my only choice!”

Fantastic experience for a first-time RV renter
“Fantastic experience for a first time RV renter. Definitely will be renting again next summer but going for the large RV. Go big or go home! Just a couple of minor complaints with the Standard RV: Inside noise while driving took some time to get used to. A bit rattle from the cabinets and doors but after some time, you tune it out. also the double bed in the back is not the best layout as the person sleeping close to the window needs to go over the person next to you to get out of bed. It’s RV life so you go with the flow.”

4. CanaDream
Since the 1990s, CanaDream has grown from a small startup into one of the country’s top RV rental and sales companies.
If you’re traveling with a partner or bringing along little ones, their Super Van Camper is a solid choice. Some of the best features include a rear queen bed, a shower & toilet, a furnace for those chilly nights, a solar panel, and even a generator.
Now, big spenders would love their Maxi Travel Camper with its full kitchen, plus a private bathroom and air conditioning. With plenty of storage and a 125L freshwater tank, it’s basically a tiny hotel on wheels!
What’s cool is that you can explore their campers in 3D online before booking.
Sadly, we heard that there were a few missing essentials that should’ve been included. Make sure to double-check everything before your adventure.
CanaDream was excellent the entire way through
“Rented an RV to travel from Toronto to the US. Two weeks on the road and CanaDream was excellent the entire way through. They saved our butt when we popped a tire at midnight in a cold Indiana Town. I had never traveled by RV before and they made the process simple and enjoyable. Highly recommend. Great service and fair prices.”

5. Karma Campervans
Karma Campervans started in Calgary and has since expanded to Toronto, Ottawa, and beyond, offering stylish, easy-to-drive campervans.
They have two options: a cozy 2-seater with a queen bed for solo travelers or couples and a spacious 4-seater with two queen bunk beds, perfect for families or friends.
Each van is packed with essentials like a kitchen sink, potable water, and a Coleman propane stove. USB ports, LED lights, solar power, an inverter, and a heater are also available for year-round camping.
Rentals include 200 km per night, and you’ll start with a full tank of gas. Plus, they allow free late drop-offs until 11:59 PM, making returns super flexible.
For added convenience, they offer one-way rentals between cities like Toronto, Ottawa, and Moncton, though there’s an extra fee depending on your route.
Unfortunately, their pricing can be on the higher side.
Well-equipped, extremely clean, easy to drive, comfortable
“Loved renting with Karma campervans. Well equipped, extremely clean, easy to drive, comfortable. Pick up and drop off was also smooth and quick. Will definitely rent again in future. Solar panel was solid, we did not have to plug van in at all throughout our rent!”

Height/width and length were appreciated
“Amazing vans, we had a great time in the Canadian Rockies for 2 weeks. The extra height/width and length of this compared to smaller rentals was appreciated. The variety of campsites in the area all had no issues with parking. Trailhead parking was the only time a bit of extra care is required, go early and get ready in the parking lot for hikes.”
