Question 1

Is the campsite included with a camper rental?

Accepted Answer

No.  We set up our campers in campgrounds that are operated by other entities and they will not allow us to book a site for you.  We have links on our Camper Rentals page to sites that we deliver to along with delivery fees that may be associated with them.  A campsite averages $27 to $30 per night.

Question 2

What is required to set up a camper?

We do all setup, take down, and transporting of the camper.  All you do is come and enjoy.

Question 3

Are campers allowed to be taken off site by customers?

Accepted Answer

We do not allow our campers to be pulled by anyone else.  We do all setup, take down, and transporting of the campers.

Question 4

What are check-in and check-out times?

Accepted Answer

We plan for setup to be between 3:00 PM and 5:00 PM on the date of arrival.  Many times we can do it earlier but it is not guaranteed.  The camper needs to be vacated and ready for removal no later than 12:00 PM (noon) on the day of departure. 
Please note that logistics can be challenging with camper rentals.  There are times when we must clean and transport campers to campgrounds that are over 60 road miles apart.  So, it is important to that we can pick up our campers on time.

Question 5

Are bed linens provided on the campers?

Accepted Answer

We provide a mattress cover only for mattresses. All other bedding, sheet sets, blankets, sleeping bags, pillows, etc will need to be brought.

Question 6

Do the campers have bathrooms?

Accepted Answer

Our campers do have bathrooms and running water.  However, there is a limited capacity of waste water that can be held.  We strongly recommend that you use the bath house as much as possible in order to conserve holding tank capacity.  There may be an extra charge if we must empty holding tanks before check-out time.

Question 7

Does the camper have a grill?

Accepted Answer

Some campers do have gas grills.  However, we strongly recommend that you use the charcoal grill that is furnished with each campsite.

Question 8

Are pots and pans furnished with campers?

Accepted Answer

Basic pots, pans, utensils, and dishes are provided on our campers.

Question 9

How are reservations made and rental fees paid?

Accepted Answer

You can use the booking app on the Camper Rentals page to select available dates.  You can also call, text, or use the contact form on our Contact Us ()page to check availability.  Once you determine if a camper is available, you must also book your site.  There are links to the campgrounds that we service on our Local Campgrounds ()page.  When you are ready to book, you can use our Booking App.()  When you complete your request, we will have to confirm your request.  Once confirmed, you will be charged approx. 50% of your rental fee. We request that the balance is paid approx. 30 days before the setup day.  Other payment arrangements can be made if necessary.

Question 10

What is the cancellation policy?

Accepted Answer

Please keep in mind that we are not a hotel on the interstate where people walk in all the time.  We may only have a few people a year looking at certain dates and once we book you in a spot, we are turning away anyone else that could rent it.
With this in mind, we must have a fairly strict cancellation policy.  In general, we will keep whatever fees that have been collected at the point of cancellation.  However, we will use common sense if there are circumstances that are not typical.

Question 11

Are pets allowed in the campers?

Accepted Answer

Since we know that pets are a part of many camping family's lives, we do allow them to come along.  However, we do charge a $10 per night fee.

Question 12

Accepted Answer

We have a 2 night minimum.  
All 2 night rentals at the Dale Hollow Dam campground will be charged at weekend rates.
