About Mark Cobb

Big Paw Tours was founded 20 years ago in Colorado when two adventure-seeking best friends decided to take their hobby and turn it into a business. Their vision was to share a love of camping and adventure with other campers – both experienced travelers and novices alike. After fully exploring Colorado, we began looking westward and decided it was time to pack our bags, check the air in our tires and set a broader course to pursue the dream. From the Redwood Forest to Zion National Park and many memories in-between, it became clear that the next adventure for Big Paw Tours was in the Pacific Northwest. We set up “camp” in Portland, Oregon, where we currently operate our first-class touring and thrill-seeking fleet. With Oregon as the ultimate outdoor playground, the business has grown and matured over time. And our adventures have only begun. You never know where the road will take you in life. But one thing is for sure; family and making memories are two of the most important things in the world. The Big Paw family is passionate about family adventure, the outdoors and the open road. That’s the foundation for our commitment to your complete trip satisfaction. Having the experience and knowledge of what can make a trip pleasant (or unpleasant), Big Paw Tours is designed to ensure 100% enjoy-ability while minimizing the stress at every corner.

It was our very first time renting/driving an RV and it was such a great experience! Mark was fantastic with communication and you can tell he really wants to set up his rental clients up for success. His RV was as described in photos, and we had a great orientation for the ins and outs of everything we needed to have a great camping trip. He was available for all questions and you can tell he knows the rig inside and out. We were a little nervous but turns out we just had to get used to it. We loved our trip and can't wait to do it again!

I enjoyed my trip with Mark's Polar express! As a first time RV user, Mark did a very clear RV 101 on my first day. Meanwhile, he provided all the camping items you can imagine, including table cloth, beach towel, grills and so on. Also, the Polar Express is nice and clean, everything works well. Mark is friendly, helpful and super flexible, I really recommend Mark and his RV for your trip.

Such a great trip! RV was clean and ready when I arrived. It is parked at a storage unit, so easy to drive in and out, as well. Mark did a great job of walking me through what I need to know. I have not used an RV before, but Mark was patient and detailed. Had absolutely no problems with the RV. This one is also pretty easy to drive. (I have driven moving trucks often.) Easy to see out of, easy to maneuver, and I really well taken care of RV. Thanks, Mark!!!

Excellent communication and support from Mark in arranging our RV rental. We were first timers, so he talked us through the process and made it really easy to book and then gave a great handover upon collection. The RV was perfect for what we needed! Highly recommended 🌟

Fantastic trip! The RV was great, working with Mark was a great experience. As first time RV'ers, Mark made sure we understood how everything worked before we left.

Awesome experience! They can drives well and is clean and comfortable (the AC works)! The included supplies were super handy and there was still a ton of storage space left. Mark and Ally were super friendly, helpful, and flexible with scheduling pickup and drop off. They were also always prompt on returning messages, my booking was very short notice so I very much appreciated that. I will be renting this van again!!
