About John's RV rentals
We are retired professionals who love travel, the RV lifestyle and sharing it with others. Have owned three different rvs ourselves and renovated all of them. Sometimes we will rent an rv when we visit a place far from home. We understand what is needed to care for these special vehicles, and will treat yours like it was our own.

Very nice experience. John was very thorough and detailed in his communication upon pickup. This is a great RV if you are boondocking like we did. Easy setup and user friendly options.

This was our first RV experience, and John was great to work with, in all phases of our rental. John had to deal with some unexpected repairs before we were supposed to pick the RV up. He regularly kept us informed, worked with his other renters, and finally was able to provide us with enough days (about 4 weeks) to make the trip worthwhile. He spent an inordinate amount of time patiently showing us how to operate all the systems in the RV. While we were on the trip, one of the slides got stuck, and we worked together to get it repaired. When we had operational questions, John was always there, graciously providing answers. Even with a few hiccups, we thoroughly enjoyed driving and living in this RV. It was perfect for us with a comfortable bed that was always made, a separate toilet from the shower, a good size kitchen and refrigerator, and excellent seats, both in the cab and in the living space. Would we rent this again......YES!

I will never rent an RV through Outdoorsy ever again. We reserved John's Bluebird for a family trip. While John was pretty communicative at first, I became concerned when he became unresponsive just prior to the start of our trip. Then he dropped a bombshell - he'd sold the RV and cancelled the rental. This was all last minute before the 4th of July weekend so of course there were no other rentals to be found. The decent thing to do would have been to inform us that he had a sale pending, but he was too busy trying to line his pockets with no thought or regard to whoever was unfortunate enough to trust him. This resulted in us having to completely cancel our vacation plans. Normally that sounds bad enough, but even more so to us. My wife has cancer (Stage IV) and every day together now is a blessing. She does a course of chemo every other week and the week after each course is misery for her. So to make sure she would be able to enjoy our trip we talked with her oncologist and arranged an extra week between treatments so that she would feel well enough to go on this family vacation. What was going to be a week of wonderful memories is now a bitter disappointment. This was an opportunity that may not come again for a couple more months which may be too late for my wife to be able to embark on such an undertaking. Thanks John.

Although circumstances didn't allow us to experience the RV, the interaction with the owner was great. He is an excellent communicator and very thorough.

We love this RV! John is a great communicator and provided all of the amenities. He went above and beyond to make sure we were well taken care of. I would definitely recommend this RV!

John has been very arranging for pick up and drop off. He took plenty of time to ensure we feel confortable driving his RV.
The sofa bed is a real bed, perfect for our 2 teenagers. Linens and kitchen tools : everything was provided. We didn’t use the 4 wheels capability and went only on paved roads and in campgrounds. Easy to drive, the RV was very slow on steep roads though, but we weren’t in a hurry !

John was very responsive with all communication. His RV is in great condition, and was very clean! We had a family of four, and were able to buckle in two car seats (that was the max). We only used the fridge and toilet, so can't speak to other items (stove, TV, shower, etc), but all was smooth!

John was great! We have never traveled in any type of RV. John was really patient with us while explaining how everything worked. The whole RV was well outfitted and very clean. Most importantly there were labels and simple instructions to operate the slides and other equipment. Well planned, comfortable space.

My spouse and I are from Maine and really wanted to take a trip through the West for an extended period. Since we are both teachers, we decided we would do it this year during our break. We flew from Maine to Denver where we picked up the camper from John. Great experience. John was thorough on explaining the ins and outs of the vehicle. It was clean, full of fuel, and ready to go. It took us on a 5,000 mile journey from Denver through the Tetons, Yellowstone, Idaho, Olympic National Park, the Oregon coast (pictured), Redwood National Forest, Yosemite, Alabama Hills (pictured), Zion, Arches, and back. And we were instant celebrities driving the thing! We treated the vehicle with the respect it deserves and it did the same for us. John was available to answer any questions we had. We are trying to adjust to being back from our trip but it's not easy. We had so much fun and felt very secure in the vehicle. We'd do it again in a heartbeat.

Took the family for 3 night 4 day camping trip to Wellington Lake for Memorial Day Weekend. This is the first RV I have rented and the process on Outdoorsy was very easy and communication with John as well and timely. We traveled with our two dogs as well, with pre-approval. Although our 14 year old son went with us, he camped outside in a tent and the unit was ideally suited for us two adults. John spent a lot of time going though the operation of the unit and it was really nice to be able to drive into the camp site, extend the slide outs and unload and enjoy the camping. As the site was pretty level, did not have to use the self leveling system in the unit, no camp hookups for water or electrical and we did conserve water and was sufficient for the trip. The on board generator was great and easy to operate. We had bad weather one night and were able to watch a movie on the TV/DVD player. The bed is comfortable and plenty of storage for clothes and personal items.

This was our first outdoorsy rental and John made it very easy. He was very responsive and helpful during out trip. The RV is in really good shape and the main mattress is very comfortable! Thanks John for your straight talk and fair dealings.
