What a great trip. The Solis was amazing. We enjoyed driving it all over Maine. Easy to drive and use. Tim was a great Host/owner who was very easy to work with and answered all our questions. Highly recommend renting this Solis PX 59!! It was an excellent adventure! Thank you.

We had a good time exploring Maine and New Brunswick in Tim's van. It was clean and had everything we needed and then some. Tim was very accommodating with drop off and pick up and responded quickly to questions.

The van was exactly as pictured. Came with all the necessities and Tim was awesome. We had a blast. Can’t wait to come back next year to do it again. Our pup loved it too!

We had a really nice experience working with Tim and would absolutely rent from him again. The van worked fine and, with some instruction from Tim at the front end, we were able to operate the systems quite easily. When we did have questions, Tim was responsive and helpful.The van itself. It’s new, well-appointed, and drives surprisingly easily. This model has a popup roof that opens to find a second queen-ish size bed accessible by a folding ladder. We slept on the bed in the main cabin and used the upstairs area for storage at night. Because it has a poptop, there is no awning; so if you want to set up a living room or kitchen under an awning bring your own. There are four folding butterfly chairs stashed in the back. The cockpit/driving end is comfortable and features plenty of storage for water bottles, Maine Gazetteers (maps), guidebooks. The two-section side view mirrors do a good job of keeping you aware of where you are and where other vehicles and objects are. The rear-view mirror has a camera feature that can be left running so you always have a full, wide view of what’s behind you without distractions.Kitchen. There is a surprisingly large fridge, a two-burner propane stove, a sink, and a pull-out cutting board/prep space. This all worked well although the stove’s knobs didn’t have push-to-turn safety features and should have. (The display on the stove itself instructs users to push to turn, but the push feature doesn’t exist.) There are plenty of utensils and other kitchen basics like towels, dish soap, cups, plates, and flatware. The pot/pans were limiting. We had to borrow a pot to cook pasta in. If you have a nesting camp pots/pans set you might want to bring that.Bed & bedding. The bed in the main cabin is a two-part fold-down murphy-style unit. Because it’s in two parts, if you want to fold it up during the day, you can’t leave it made. That’s a minor issue because it’s easy to make. There were four pillows and good linens/blankets/duvet. The mattress was fine, but we had a bit of a Goldilocks moment: It was too hard for one of us and OK for the other.Water & toilet systems. All the water systems worked well. The cartridge toilet is simple to use. The freshwater tank display took us a minute to really see clearly, but once we had it, it was fine. You can also use it as a night light or low-level lighting. The water gets hot quickly. The shower set up is tight, but fine. You’ll want to use a bathmat outside the enclosure: Some water will escape from the enclosure onto the main cabin floor.About Outdoorsy. We purchased emergency insurance for the trip. We were told this included 100% coverage for emergency towing, repairs, etc. They lied. We were boondocking at a Hipcamp site, not a fully prepared campground site with a concrete pad, water, and electricity. We took the van down a small road and got stuck in a muddy patch. We called Outdoorsy’s insurance broker to arrange a tow. We learned that 100% emergency coverage doesn’t mean 100% emergency coverage. So, caveat emptor on the Outdoorsy insurance. Our personal AAA account didn’t include RVs (we don’t own one, so….), either. Our campsite host offered to call a couple of her neighbors with farm trucks and tractors to come and try to pull us out, but in the end, we called a local towing service and paid out of pocket for the pull-out. An expensive learning experience.

Great trip to explore Maine’s lighthouses and fall colors. The Winnebago Solis 59px was a joy to drive and a perfect fit for the two of us. Tim was outstanding to work with explained everything well.

For first timers the three of us did alright and saw some beautiful places along Maine's northern (Bold) coast. Tim, one of the two RV owners, could not have been more delightful and helpful. And the van was easy to operate and smooth riding.

Great experience!! Tim was so helpful and thought of literally everything. We took this RV to a wedding in Northern Maine and had the amenities of home on the go. It even had a Keurig and coffee packed for us. All of the amenities worked wonderfully and I was shocked at how easy it was to use everything! No difficult settings or set ups. If I could give this more than 5 stars I would! Not to mention Tim was incredible and easily reachable for any questions and even kept our car at his home for the weekend while we took the RV.

First time in a van and it was a breeze! Everything was explained well and if we had any questions they were answered right away.
