There are many “must-dos” for your motorhome trip in the USA that you think of straight away, such as Disneyland, or the Empire State Building. But there are also lots of less mainstream, quirky gems tucked away for you to discover in your RV – visit one or two of them and you’re guaranteed a respite from the crowds, as well as some unusual memories!
1. The Baranov Museum Building, a National Historic Landmark in Kodiak on the Alaska Marine Highway, is the oldest of only four Russian structures remaining in the U.S. Built in 1808, it is the oldest building in Alaska.
2. The Coronado Trail Scenic Byway in Arizona is the least-traveled federal highway in the U.S. An old cowboy once scoffed when he heard of the plans to build the road” “There ain’t even a good horse trail”. Oddly enough for a highway so little used, the Coronado Trail was America’s first federal-aid highway. It was completed in 1926.
3. On the Country Music Highway in Kentucky, you can enjoy country music history and refuel your vehicle at the same time at the Country Music Gas Station in Louisa.
4. Get the jumbo box of popcorn and enjoy a show at the Fox Theater, the largest surviving motion picture palace in the world, located on Woodward Avenue in Detroit, Michigan.
5. You won’t have to prick your finger on the Paul Bunyan Scenic Highway in Minnesota, where the mayor of Manhattan Beach, artisan Frederick Gridley, also known as the Viking warrior Frederick Bearclawed at Hostfest, tells tall tales and makes world-renowned thimbles....

I have been General Manager of Motorhome Republic, the operators of this website, for 4 years and with the company for 6 years starting as a Sales / Account Manager. Previous roles have included account manager and software architect for a web design firm, advertising sales across multiple media and television production. I’ve been lucky enough to go Motorhoming several times in Canada, USA and New Zealand so far and grew up going on caravanning holidays with Mum and Dad. The value and freedom Motorhoming offers are its two main drawcards for me. That and the envy on the other campers’ faces when you pull into a State Park campground with no hook ups in a 31’ Class C with double slide outs, on board generator, side awning, exterior entertainment unit and smoker unit for a 10kg salmon caught earlier that day.
I have been in the Motorhome industry for the best part of 6 years and with Motorhomes Republic for the last 18 months. I previously worked for the largest Motorhome rental company in the world as the New Zealand Sales Account Manager. I’ve traveled the length and width of New Zealand in many different categories of Motorhomes, in fact I don’t think there is a main state highway I haven’t driven. The love I have for Motorhomes is one of freedom and flexibility, doing what I want when I want. If I have a hankering for a cup of coffee in a beautiful scenic spot simply stop boil and enjoy….
