RV/MH Hall of Fame

RV/MH Hall of Fame is a transportation museum in Elkhart showcasing recreational vehicles from major American manufacturers such as Airstream and Winnebago. The collection spans decades of RV design and production, displaying how these vehicles evolved to meet changing travel needs.

The institution was established in 1972 as the Recreational Vehicle/Manufactured Housing Heritage Foundation and opened to the public in 1991. Its relocation to the current Elkhart site in 2007 strengthened its role as the primary archive of recreational vehicle manufacturing history.

The museum exhibits the progression of recreational vehicles through time, featuring a collection of historical models that demonstrate changes in American mobile living.

The facility provides dedicated parking for RV visitors with hookup options for water, electric, and waste disposal. Allow plenty of time to tour the collection, as the exhibits cover many decades and vehicle types.

The collection includes a 1931 Chevrolet Housecar that Paramount Pictures offered to actress Mae West as an incentive for her film work. This vehicle bridges entertainment history with early recreational vehicle design.
