Comments from an email sent to us from a service customer.
Hi Alan,
 Steve did an superb job of moving the vehicle to desired location. He almost did in one motion, the second was perfect.
 Many thanks to Family RV.
 Best regards

Race Fan

Jim is a long time customer,been renting from us for years. Jim being a big race fan took our 2009 Winnebago Chalet 22BR to a race down in southern California. Family RV has built it rental business off of our repeat customers and we appreciate their continued business by offering additional discounts to the repeat customers.
These ladies had a great time! We asked them how they found us and they commented "a friend told us about your company. when we contacted you, we were impressed with your service and decided to use your service" Our next question was where did you go? Chuckling they said " Vegas, we had a bachelorette trip!
It was the best party ever and what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas."

Nice review from Yelp

Comments from Brenda posted on Yelp Family RV is the best place to go if you are looking to rent an RV! I found that their staff is very nice and friendly, and they will happily help you pick out a unit. The motor homes they have are in great condition (much better then some of the other places I was looking at) and offer a lot of additional features, yet their prices are very similar to other rental places. I also took a look at some the trailers they have and they all looked brand new! If we get our truck hooked up that might be the next
thing to try! We will be back again when we plan our next adventure!

We received an update Kim Kubis, sounds like they are having a wonderful time experiencing the fun RV lifestyle:

Hi Alan. Just getting ready to take the wife, daughter and grand-daughter to Disney World in May. We took the RV to Newfoundland last summer and played tourist before we went to spend time with the in-laws. We had  a great time in Gross Morne National Park. Then we went to my mother-in law’s place. I just got the RV set up and was having my first beer when a guy in a pick-up showed up with some papers. I said “you look official!” and he said “I’m only the messenger” and handed me a $250.00 ticket for water ban by-law infringement. Lots more to this story but I need a few beers to tell it. I was able to resolve it and got my money back. Anyway, upon leaving for St. Johns, we got about 5 miles from my inlaw’s and the RV just died. I got pulled into back and had the “best minds” in the bay try an fix it. No luck. I had to have it ‘recovered’ to the only  Dodge Sprinter garage in the province (a mere 630Km away) where the only qualified technician was on vacation for two weeks. So we flew home and my wife and I flew back a month later and drove it home. The problem was an internal fault in the computer, no explanation on what might have caused it only “it happens”. I’m starting to trust it more and we’re going to give it a good work-out this summer. Kim

Thanks for keeping in touch

Found their way back home after purchasing our 2008 Winnebago View 24J


"Just got back from a long weekend dry camping with my wife, Melita at Pinery  Provencal Park in Grand Bend Ont. This was basically a shakedown for our up-coming trip to Newfoundland in July. She absolutely loves the camper and this gave us the opportunity to make lists and actually enjoy the unit stand alone. The absolute luxury was sure a change from our VW bus days (I actually felt that I had sold-out my Hippie principles but so what!) Primitive camping in luxury, we’re going to have a lot of that in Newfie. We didn’t take any pictures on our trip from California to Ontario. I just put the hammer down and drove. We ate the specials at sleazy casinos and truck stops along I-80. Reno was a big disappointment. We averaged 16 miles to the US gal (19.5 Imp gal) at 60 MPH. The only problem I had was the unit was slightly out of alignment when I picked it up so I stopped at a number of tire stores along the way and got a price on new tires with an alignment. ( I wanted to get new tires before I imported it.) I got some great prices but the unit was too large for every alignment rack we encountered. We also tried the World’s Largest Truck-stop in Willcott  Iowa (Try the shrimp special- 60 deep fried shrimp, hot fries, slaw, roll and Never-ending Iced Tea -$8) and the guy at the counter said “sorry, we don’t do cars”. I was able to get an alignment here at home and they told me I’ve got at least another season left on the tires. Crossing the border was not too bad. We arrived @4am and spent an hour looking for the export office (whose driveway is now non-existent due to never-ending construction) All my papers were in order and I was allowed to leave. On the Canadian side, I declared the import and was directed to secondary to present the paperwork and pay the taxes. To my surprise, a number of the officers on duty were guys that I had worked with in security at Casino Windsor years ago and are now working at Costoms. Needless to say, they “Hooked me up”. Anyway, I promise to send pictures of our upcoming trip."
