    We looked around, found you need to have already made reservations by January, the latest. Cost wise it was running $2800 (off season) with that number running $3500 + in . That was for a 24 - 26' advertised as sleeps 4. Realistically 2 adults , 2 small kids.
    For your requirements, one that sleeps 6 would be my recommendation. Anything smaller, you're looking at possible divorce by end of trip. Consider they get 4 - 8 mpg (tops) that's another $2k fuel wise. When it was all done, a 3 week trip off season ( Dec - March) fuel incl it was going to cost approximately $4500. That was not including food, waste dump, camping site fees, etc. We ended up renting a minivan, stay at hotels and friends. 3 week trip $3200.

    Call the few places listed in the metro area for better idea of pricing. We were given better pricing for month long than weekly rates. That didn't include up front damage and cleaning deposit. You have to pick up at least 1 - 2days earlier to pack / load everything, then add another half day disagreeing how to make everything fit
    ALL rental places have a No Pet policy. Another way to go would be one of the private owners route. Their rigs sit in storage most of the year and look to rent, at a better price, then rental places. A guy I spoke with up in NoCo could have saved us $1500, renting his. The down side, no emergency roadside, towing assistance.
