The town of Dover, New Jersey is situated just west of Newark and New York and east of Allentown. Dover was established in the early 1700s by a man called John Jackson who built an iron forge in the town, which quickly became a significant source of employment in the area. With its proximity to Newark, Dover promptly grew with the implementation of a railway line, giving commuters easy access to the big city.

What an amazing RV and great hosts, couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Matt and Victoria were helpful and accommodating during the booking process; delivery set up; throughout the trip; and at pick up. The RV was truly a home on wheels, they have everything you can think of to make you feel like you are in your own home. Would recommend it for your next camping/glamping trip or as we used it for, a place to hang with our fur babies while getting some work done in our home.
Thanks again

John is amazing! Checkmate and company is absolutely wonderful. From the reservation consideration to last minute accommodations. The sprinter rental was superb, endless amenities, very clean and showed up in style. I would recommend John and checkmate to anyone inquiring, if I could give him 10 stars I would! Me and my family had an amazing time during our rental period.
