Located right at the marina, Oak Bottom Campground is ideal for those hoping to spend as much time on the water as possible. Although there are no hookup facilities provided, campers can use the central washrooms, on-site dump station, and drinking water facilities for no extra fee.

We enjoyed our trip in Bridgett’s travel trailer. The trailer was very clean and well stocked. Bridgett answered all my questions, explained set up, hitch hookup and breakdown very well. She was flexible with our pick up and drop off times. She even checked on us during the trip! We towed the trailer from CA to Utah and Idaho and back with no problems at all. I would rent from Bridgett again!

This RV was awesome! Dave and Jennifer have the motorhome completely loaded with everything you need. Just toss in clothes, food , drinks, and hit the road. They were very helpful when we picked up the RV and ensured they would be available throughout the trip if we had any questions. It’s obvious to me they go the extra mile to supply a clean, well maintained, and comfortable product. This makes for a stress free relaxing vacation. This was our first time renting an RV like this and we will definitely be return customers. THANK YOU Dave and Jennifer!!!

RV owner John was very detailed at walking me through the RV to understand how everything worked. He had the RV very clean and ready to go. If I had to pick at anything I might suggest real coffee cups instead of paper cups and maybe a small blender. John and his RV are both highly recommended.
