RV rental Payson, UT: Motorhome rentals, camper van rentals and more

Canyon View RV Park, outside the town of Spanish Fork, is one of the closest dedicated RV parks with some amenities. Sites have electrical and water hookups and there’s a playground for the little ones. It’s also adjacent to a golf course if you’re hoping for a tee time during your stay in Payson. Another option is Maple Bench Campground in the Unita-Wasatch-Cache National Forest; it’s one of the closest rustic campgrounds to park with a motorhome rental from Payson. They have drinking water available, but only simple vault toilets and not much else in the way of amenities. If you’re willing to stay a little farther out of town, the Springville / Provo KOA Journey is another option. You’ll find full hookups, a swimming pool, a dog park, and a game room to keep you entertained when you choose an RV rental in Payson, UT. With manager permission, you could also camp out at Payson’s local Walmart, but you won’t have any amenities so come prepared with full tanks.

To learn a little bit about Payson’s history, visit the Peteetneet Museum, which is located inside the old high school. It houses an excellent assortment of artifacts from the town’s past including everything from old saddles from its leather producing days in the late 19th century to wood carvings from its Native American inhabitants. While the area is primarily known for its Mormon residents, there are quite a few other religions and ethnicities that make their home here. The Sri Sri Radha Krishna Temple in Spanish Forks is an example of this, and visiting their massive Hindu temple is a great way to learn more about the Payson area’s diversity. Additionally, if your trip with the RV rental in Payson is during the month of July, don't miss the annual Scottish Heritage Festival. Scots make up a substantial portion of the Payson population and their festival features bagpipe competitions, sword dancing, and, of course, loads of delicious Scottish food. If you get a familiar feeling walking around Payson, it’s probably due to the hit 1980’s film Footloose being filmed here. If you’re interested in visiting some of the locations from the film, make stops at Payson High School and Sudsies, the local car wash. Oh, and don’t worry, Payson doesn’t have any prohibition on dancing, so feel free to show off your moves at one of the local nightspots.
