Best time to visit Avon

Avon has a temperate climate with warm summers and cold winters. If you find yourself traveling to the city during the winter, make sure to warm up the car engine first for at least 30 seconds to avoid engine failure. You also need to lift the wiper blade arms up when parked to ensure that the wipers stay in good condition despite the harsh weather. Lastly, always remember to inspect your rental car and report any possible issues when you pick it up at the depot.

For long-distance travelers coming from other states or far away cities, renting an RV or a motorhome would be an ideal choice for that road trip to Avon. You can bring the entire family and travel in style when you book a campervan with us. Check out our RV RV Rentalpage for more details.

The annual Duck Tape Festival, named after the city's renowned duct tape brand, draws in huge crowds to the city every summer. Families and travelers from all over gather to join the parade and see all sorts of quirky art and fashion pieces made interestingly out of duct tape. 

Consider driving to Avon  to attend the festivities during the Duck Tape Festival held around June when the weather is nice and warm. It's a great way for you to meet new friends and experience a one-of-a-kind event in Ohio.

Planning a family trip to the city of Avon?

As one of the top 5 school districts in the state of Ohio, Avon is a prime location for families, who make up majority of the city's population.

Avon has beautiful parks, a nature preserve, and various activity centers including a baseball stadium and community pool. There are plenty of reasons to drive to Avon in a rental car with your loved ones, so we decided to narrow down the options for you.
