What Owners Need to Know

Good Sam RV Rentals

Keep hearing about Good Sam RV Rentals and want to know what all the fuss is about?

As an RV owner, you know your RV is an investment. You spent time researching the perfect type of RV and towing truck before purchasing, made sure everything was exact during financing, and you follow every maintenance recommendation in the book. You understand what it means to invest in quality. You’ve maintained your RV, and benefited with exciting, fun adventures—but now it’s time to profit from your investment.  

When you list with Good Sam RV Rentals, you’re investing all over again. There’s a lot at stake when you decide to rent your RV rig, but there’s more to gain. Many RV owners who rent their RV no longer have to worry about a monthly RV payment—or a payment for their towing vehicle, for that matter.

With Good Sam RV Rentals, owners make more and renters pay less—every trip. 

How Owners Make More with Good Sam

When you list on Good Sam RV Rentals, a portion of what you charge renters will go towards commission fees that are part of every rental. Some of these fees help cover insurance and roadside assistance to make sure your RV is protected while being rented. Owners are charged the low rate of 5% commission on every rental. That means that 95% of your daily rate, any mandatory fees, delivery fees, and additional add-on fees will go into your pocket.

As RV owners, the more exposure your RV rental has, the more you’ll book out your rental calendar. You have some control over this: make sure your rental fee is affordable, create an outstanding listing renters pay attention to, and earn good ratings from renters.

How Renters Save More with Good Sam

With the absolute lowest booking fee on the market, renters save money by choosing Good Sam RV Rentals. Your renters will only pay a 5% booking fee based on the daily rate, delivery fees, and additional add-ons they choose. This fee goes toward providing renters with insurance coverage and 24-hour roadside assistance on your RV. We want everyone to be able to have an enjoyable getaway without breaking the bank. 

“Becoming a Good Sam Member and listing your RV on Good Sam RV Rentals should go hand-in-hand. We’re creating the best possible owner-renter rental experience so both parties get what they want: extra cash on hand and a rental worth repeating.”

- Peter Zawadzki, Director of Digital Innovation

Why Every RV Owner and Renter Should Be a Good Sam Member 

When you list your RV on Good Sam RV Rentals, you earn more. Pretty simple. But the fact is, as an RV owner, you likely block out several weekends or weeks in your rental schedule when you and your family get to take the motorhome, trailer, or fifth wheel out for your own adventures. And that’s when being a Good Sam Member pays off.

Good Sam Memberships aren't just for RV owners though. RV renters can take advantage of the many perks of being a member of Good Sam as well. Not only do Good Sam members get retail discounts when preparing for a trip, they can also take advantage of the fuel savings at 5¢ off gas and 8¢ off diesel at select Pilot Flying J location, plus 10% off over 2,100 Good Sam Parks.

Here’s the Good Sam Membership breakdown: 

  • $109 for three years 
  • $39 for one year 

You’ll also receive a 1,000 Welcome points when you sign up for a one-year plan, and you receive 3,000 Welcome points when you purchase a three-year plan. After only a handful of rentals annually, you’ve already more than paid for your membership. That doesn’t yet take into account the other added benefits you’ll have with a membership.

“We believe everyone interested in exploring the outdoors and experiencing the RV lifestyle should be able to find that opportunity with Good Sam RV Rentals. This is an affordable, easy option to see the very best RVing has to offer—and what a great introduction to the Good Sam community and to see the value of a Good Sam Membership.”
