Ford - Tíoga

HIGHLY RECOMMEND!! Danielle is one of the most accommodating individuals we have ever met! She gets an A+ GETTING TO THE RV: Four of us flew into Calgary Int Airport. Initially, we were worried about the distance of the rental pickup from the airport, but Danielle offered to pick us up at the airport at 11pm with the RV ready to roll for a reasonable price! Like I said...accommodating. Since it was so late we decided on renting a Jeep Cherokee ($58 CAD) at the airport and stayed at a hotel. Pickup location was SO PERFECT! It's a 1 minute drive off the highway on your way to Banff. NAME THE PICKUP/DROP OFF TIME...she will make it happen. She provides everything you need from bear spray to linens. Once we picked up the RV we drove 15 mins to Banff where we went grocery shopping and dropped off the rental car at AVIS (literally down the street from the IGA grocery store). Couldn't have worked out better. THE RV: Legit. The 4 of us had tons of hiking gear, photography equipment, etc. We were able to fit over a weeks worth of groceries on top of that. The sofa pulls out and table collapses into beds, plus the cabin sleeper above. Plenty of room to sprawl out!!! Big bonus = MASSIVE PROPANE TANK and HEATER/INFERNO! After hiking in the snow all day the heater would dry all our gear and jackets in an hour or two! It actually dropped below freezing a few nights and we still had to turn down the thermostat because of how well it worked. The oven and fridge run off the propane and batteries. We barely used a quarter of the propane the whole time we were there. Never ran out of power, all we really had to refill was the potable water (takes 5 mins) at all the campsites every other day. She also provided cooking utensils and dinnerware so we didn't have to buy/bring any of that. We cooked 90% of our meals in the RV and never had a problem. There was also a handy power station that runs off the RV battery. It had several USB ports and an outlet...super handy for charging up all your devices when they run out of campsites with electric! BIGGEST PERK = SMALLER SIZE! So easy to drive THROUGH TOWN and FIND PARKING on the street and TRAIL HEADS (we went in September) since it would it pretty much fit into regular parking space. If we rented a 30 foot RV we would have missed out on a lot. No need to worry about any mechanical problems, it ran perfect. Gas wasn't too bad either, we made it to Jasper and filled up about a quarter of the way back. Spent $200 CAD on gas the entire week. All the campgrounds in Alberta are really nice and clean with hot showers. So there was no need to use the shower in the RV. Since we saved a lot of money going through Danielle instead of RV rental companies like "Canadream" we were able to stay at campgrounds with full hook ups, do way more activities, and indulge in lobster tails. Overall, the RV worked out perfect and couldn't have asked for a better person to rent from. We all agreed we would definitely rent from her again! A+++

It was an amazing trip, and Danielle made sure of it.
