Recent Buttle Lake - Strathcona Provincial Park RVs rental reviews
We had a great experience renting Jack’s truck and camper for a trip to Buttle Lake in Strathcona Park. The whole setup was very well kept and really easy to drive. The F-150 Lightning was especially nice on the winding, hilly roads through Strathcona - super quiet and smooth, with none of the constant downshifting you’d normally get coming out of slow corners or climbing hills. This was also our first experience travelling in an EV and charging was much easier than we expected. Jack gave us some great recommendations for apps to find charging stations, and we also used PlugShare. We used fast chargers and spent only about $32 on charging for the round trip from Nanaimo to Buttle Lake - plus a day trip - and back, and still had around 40% battery when we dropped it off (450+ kilometres). The camper itself was comfortable and had everything we needed. The bed is on the firmer side, but was surprisingly comfortable - we even brought a camping pad thinking we might want it on top and never ended up using it. The skylight over the bed totally added to the experience. Water pressure was great both inside and outside as well; it was nice and hot too. We tried the heater only for a moment and it pumps heat! Jack was super friendly and easy to deal with. He gave us a really thorough walkthrough before we left and made sure we knew we could reach him if anything came up during the trip. Overall, a really fun and easy rental experience. We’d definitely rent from Jack again!

This was our first time renting this trailer as our usual one was booked and we are so glad it was!! Dan was phenomenal to deal with and the trailer was brand new condition and worked perfectly! We camped in Strathcona Park for 5 nights with no hook ups and everything worked with no hiccups! We will be future renters and look forward to our next camping trip!! Thank you again!

Meredith was wonderful to deal with! She answered all our questions since this was our first time using a motor home. Vincent Van Go treated us well! The bed was very comfortable, the stove and shower were easy to use. We had a fabulous trip with our dog and highly recommend renting from Meredith! 🌝👍🚐♥️
