About Richard Smelker

My wife, Star, and I owned an RV Rental business in MIchigan in the 1980's. we rented Class C motorhomes. We have owned Class C, Class A, Tent campers and teardrops. As we've gotten older, we're looking again at Class A motorhomes to go full time again. We have kids, grandkids and great grandkids that we like to visit but we'd like to do it without bothering anyone. We are renting the trailer because we like working with people to help them have enjoyable vacations. The Highland Ridge is a high-end quality trailer that we bought new in 2019 as a year-old model. Unfortunately, my mother-in-law that lived with us went in a nursing home just after we bought the trailer, so we didn't get a chance to use it much. We took a 2-week vacation in it and then covid hit so it has basically been sitting in our yard more than it's been on the road. We occasionally use it as a guest house when company visits and we keep it well maintained. We hope that renting it out will be a blessing for the folks that rent it. we will be using it for trips when we visit churches, we have a music ministry and I'm an ordained minister.

Memories made on trips with Richard Smelker's RVs

The RV was fantastic, we have a 1 and a half year old and we were visiting my in-laws ranch. We needed something with all the things that we have at home but on the road. This RV was that and so much more. It really felt like home.
