Why should I rent an RV / Motorhome rather than stay at a hotel or motel?
Traveling in an RV / Motorhome allows you to drive in comfort with all
facilities on board. The full kitchen allows the passenger to serve up beverages
and snacks while enjoying the beautiful scenery. If you are feeling tired or see
a view or attraction that you would like to stop at and enjoy, you can do it!
Get refreshed and go on your way. There are many RV / Motorhome facilities
available to stop at the end of a day... state parks, KOA parks, and many
others. You can plan your trip ahead or make your reservations along the way.
When you travel in an RV / Motorhome there is no packing or unpacking ...
everything is there in its place just like home. No early checkout time... stay
wherever you like as long as you like. Get back on the road at your convenience.
The freedom offered in an RV / Motorhome while traveling and vacationing is
wonderful. It is an experience not to miss. If you have never vacationed in a
motorhome, you are in store for a treat!

No, we have paid all the additional insurance costs so you are not required to
get a rental ryder or binder.
Return to Top What happens if we have mechanical problems while on our trip?
First off, we are very selective in which RV / motorhome we put on our rentals
fleet. The RV / motrohomes we list are late model and only those
that we know are well maintained. We have a very low rate of mechanical
problems for this reason. Also most of our 2006-2007 models are still on factory
warranties .
The RVs / motorhomes we list are still on the factory warranties. However, in the event
a mechanical problem does occur we will want it fixed as quickly as
you and will work with you in getting the problem taken care of and you
back on the road as soon as possible.
