by Mark Rebindaine  |  Published June 3, 2020

Situated in between Crow and Dry Creek, Cheyenne is the capital and largest city of Wyoming with a population of just over 60.000. From the historic downtown area to its amazing restau-rants and high-energy rodeos, Cheyenne has plenty to offer. In-deed, there’s a real cowboy feel to this area; the neighbouring countryside is full of bison and horses roaming around large farms.

Located in the southeastern corner of the state, Cheyenne is also close to Colorado and Nebraska, at the epicenter of American Western culture. With its proximity to the Rockies, the weather is always changing, so when you rent an RV in in this area, it is best to be prepared for anything that Mother Nature can throw at you. Often described as the ‘Airbnb of the RV world’, Outdoorsy has all sorts of vehicles available, from trailer pop-ups for just over $80 to full on motorhomes at about $200 per day.
