Travelling with Shorty is an adventure within the adventure. Shorty is an old lady that needs some special attention, but she will take you almost everywhere. It has been a pleasure travelling with. Kevin is very responsive and provides almost immediate replies to any query and/or problems you'd have. Highly recommended.

We loved our time in Shorty on a family trip to a campground near Tofino. And the orientation / support from Kevin was great!

It was great to rent Shorty. An authentic retro experience well worth it. The car perfectly suited our needs and was fairly easy to use.

Where can I start with Kevin and Shorty. We had such an amazing trip and it all started when meeting Kevin who was super fun and very informative about shorty and made us feel very welcome. Shorty is a dream to drive and a great way to see this great country. I couldn’t be happier with both Shorty and Kevin. Would highly recommend

Shorty is incredible, as is Kevin, who is always available and helpful. He gave us a one-hour training session to explain everything. The trip to the Rockies went very well with Shorty, even if the passes are climbed at his own pace ;) all the comforts inside, the beds, the hot water...! Perfect! We'll definitely be driving off in one of Kevin's Campervans again!

We had the most wonderful trip. We had the pleasure of meeting a very enthusiastic Kevin who ensured we were well prepped before taking Shorty (RV) out on the road. He showed us how to use all the equipment carefully and explained everything well. He ensured we knew how to drive safely and correctly start the engine, give that Shorty is of a vintage era! We encountered zero issues with the RV on our travels across the beautiful Rockies. We enjoyed our time in the RV and all the retro quirks that come with it. Warning, don't expect to go zooming up any mountains as Shorty forces you to sit and enjoy the magic around you. We will be sure to reach out to Kevin again for our next big road trip and may even consider a bigger model now that we have the grip of driving a wide load!

Rencontrez votre hôte, West Coast Retro Glamper Rentals Inc

Membre depuis 2021

Hello, My name is Kevin and I founded “West Coast Retro Glamper Rentals Inc.” in the winter of 2020. It is my greatest pleasure to provide you with a one-of-a-kind and world class experience in one of my extraordinary retro RVs. I have spared no expense in making them look and perform beautifully. Local RV rental dealerships and my friendly competitors on this and other pier to pier platforms cannot compare to the experience and value myself and my Glampers offer. As my numerous five star reviews demonstrate. The only negative review thus far was from travellers who damaged my Glamper and used negative feedback to leverage their liability. I understand and forgive these beautiful campers. That’s why we have insurance. No reason to be negative. Honesty, transparency and respect create the best renter/host relationships. Mixed in with a ton of fun:-) I want your trip to be fantastic as much if not more than you do:) It’s also important to know that I do not charge one nickel for any add-ons. Mileage, generators, camp chairs, wiener roasting sticks, camp tables, barbeques, bike racks, cargo racks, all kitchen needs, bedding! You name it. And its included. I also make myself available 100% of the time you are on your adventure to answer any questions and guide you through any unforeseen circumstances. And before your trip I will email you a 42 page electronic manual that explains every single detail and function of the Glampers. And to top it off there will be a 1 to 1 1/2 hour orientation before you leave my driveway which almost every renter so far has enjoyed almost as much as the trip. You will be an RV expert I guarantee it! No one does this! Please reach out to me and book one before they’re gone, Kind regards, Kevin
