A call to adventure.
A call to adventure.
The couple behind Steve & Melissa's Adventure RV Rentals both grew up camping and connecting over a shared love of outdoor experiences. When the pandemic hit, they decided to get back to their roots. “We decided that camping was something we needed to get back into,” they said, “and [we] decided to buy our first travel trailer together.” Since then, they’ve been sharing their passion with customers looking for their own sense of adventure.
For Steve & Melissa's Adventure RV Rentals, one of the biggest lessons learned has been the timing of the business. “For our area, people start looking to rent in March and usually go through October (depending on the weather),” they said. “Our busiest months are June, July and August.”
They also made a point to mention that there’s a lot of opportunity when you count potential customers without a proper vehicle for towing, sharing that there are a lot of people who want to rent an RV without a truck. For this reason, they offer delivery of our trailers, as well as the ability for renters to pick up trailers themselves.
For Steve & Melissa's Adventure RV Rentals, it was just meant to be. “[We] found Good Sam RV Rentals through the internet,” they shared. “I had listed my RV’s for rent on other sites…[but] Good Sam’s commission rate was so much lower.”
The real takeaway was how Good Sam gave their business back to them. “It allowed us to keep more money in our pockets, which is a good thing.”
