Why hire a campervan or motorhome in Montana

Montana — a region worth exploring

Montana's Glacier National Park alone spans over 1,600 square kilometres and contains more than 700 miles of hiking trails, making it one of the most remarkable wilderness areas in North America. Known as Big Sky Country, this north-western US state stretches from the Great Plains in the east to the Rocky Mountains in the west, offering an extraordinary range of landscapes for road trips. From Billings to Missoula is roughly 560 km, crossing wide-open prairies before climbing into forested mountain valleys. The drive from Great Falls to the west entrance of Glacier National Park covers about 290 km of increasingly dramatic scenery. Along the way, you can explore the Lewis and Clark Caverns, soak in natural hot springs near Bozeman, or follow the Yellowstone River through Paradise Valley towards the northern entrance of Yellowstone National Park. Montana's roads are well suited to larger vehicles, with long, straight highways across the plains and well-maintained mountain passes that welcome campervans and motorhomes alike. With Yescapa, you can hire a campervan directly from local owners across the state, giving you the freedom to pick up your vehicle in cities like Billings, Missoula, or Helena and set off at your own pace. The peer-to-peer model means a wider choice of vehicles and often more flexible arrangements than traditional hire companies.

Best time to visit

The best time to hire a campervan in Montana is from June to September, when the Going-to-the-Sun Road in Glacier National Park is fully open — typically from late June until mid-October. July brings the famous Sweet Pea Festival in Bozeman, a week-long celebration of arts, music, and local culture. Summer campsites across Montana fill with fellow travellers, so booking your Yescapa motorhome early is worthwhile. Shoulder months like May and late September offer quieter roads and lower hire rates through peer-to-peer owners, ideal if you prefer a more peaceful experience.

What you need to know about roads and motorways in Montana

Montana has no toll roads, so you can travel freely without worrying about fees. Interstate highways such as I-90 and I-15 are the main corridors, both well maintained and suitable for motorhomes. The speed limit on rural interstates is 80 mph (around 129 km/h) for cars, but if your campervan or motorhome exceeds a certain weight, you should keep to 65 mph (105 km/h) on these stretches. Mountain passes like those near Lookout Pass or MacDonald Pass may require lower gears and extra caution in larger vehicles. Rest areas are generously spaced along major routes, often with free overnight parking permitted for a single night.

Frequently asked questions

What our users say about our campervans and motorhomes in Montana

LINDSAY
5 / 5

Communication with the owner was great, van was immaculate, heaps of choice, love the peer to peer concept. Easy to add an extra driver and ID checks were very thorough but straightforward. Changing dates wasn't so easy, the owner was great, but the process at the back end took some manual effort. Teething problems, not a big deal. Main area that needs improving (for me anyway) is the deposit. There was a single line in a table stating Deposit: cash or transfer, that I hadn't seen. The owner asked for the cash or a transfer when we were at the car, which he explained was normal process, but Yescapa could have explained beforehand. I transferred €2000 directly to the owner, which didn't feel comfortable. I had expected this would all be done via Yescapa. I ended up losing €45 in exchange rate variations + fees as well, the owner's bank had challenges which meant it to 5 days to get a lot of cash back. It was lucky we had that amount at hand. I would use Yescapa again. I hope they can tidy up and improve the processes though.

Incredible time spent across the south of France with an incredible van! From beach, lakes, mountains and fields, it got me places I didn’t even pre conceive. Can’t speak more highly of my over all experience from van collection at train station to drop off. Drives smoother than my Suzuki jimny and can confirm very 6ft 4 friendly.

Aaron
5 / 5

We had an amazing experience hiring Eli's campervan! It was perfect for our family of four – myself, my partner, and our two young daughters. The van was spotless, comfortable, and had everything we needed for our trip. It was easy to drive, well-equipped, and made exploring the malaga so much more enjoyable. The owners were friendly, helpful, and made the whole rental process smooth from start to finish. We made some unforgettable family memories and wouldn't hesitate to rent this campervan again. Highly recommended to anyone looking for a fun, comfortable, and hassle-free adventure in Spain. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

We had a great experience. All went smoothly and the camper van was perfect. Mike was very accommodating and communicative throughout and we would recommend highly.

Viviane
5 / 5

Communication was easy, the vehicle is in good condition and looks like the shared photos. Has the amenities needed and comfy bedding. Having the solar charger is a plus given we didn't drive much, so there was no need for recharging with electricity.
