Is it safe to drink the water from the RV rental motor home tank?2021-08-25T10:24:40+00:00

We do not recommend this. It is difficult to know if the water is potable when renters fill the tank at a variety of locations. We recommend you use bottled water for drinking and cooking. The water from the fresh water holding tank is fine for washing and bathing.

Should we pay the extra $20/night for “Full Hookup” camp sites?2021-08-25T10:12:17+00:00

ABSOLUTELY! You’ll actually save money!  Generators take about 2 gallons per hour, so if you run the generator for 10 hours each day that will cost you almost $60 in gas alone! Full hookup sites generally provide power, water, a sewage drain and sometimes cable tv connections. This makes camping so much easier, quieter and more convenient. Without hookups you are “dry camping” which we recommend only for experienced RV’ers or campers. All campgrounds that have hookups at least have a 30amp connection.(this is what we use on our rv’s)

When can I pick up the RV rental motor home?2021-08-25T10:01:57+00:00

We operate like a hotel.  Check In during the PM, and Check Out before NOON.  Guests come to our office pick-up address to pick up your rental RV. Check-out orientations start at 4:30pm and are scheduled every 30 minutes after that. Your RV is likely returning the same day around NOON so you will not be able to pickup early.  This is why it is important to reserve the appropriate days you will absolutely need the RV.  For example, if you need to leave your home at 9am to get to your campground for checking at 3pm , you’ll need to reserve the RV for the night before so you have time to pack and leave in the early AM. We need the 4hours from Noon until 4pm to to service and sanitize returning RVs. Check with us to arrange delivery and pick-up of your RV rental motor home to your home or office for an additional charge of $199 plus $3 per mile (pickup is the same).
