About James Lindsay

The spark behind Boston Camps came after meeting up with some friends at the park. It was towards the end of the summer and we were recounting our summer adventures. After mentioning our various camping trips we heard a familiar refrain… “We should do that, but I haven’t camped in ages”. We will be creating and posting content to to help families navigate camping in New England. Feel free to checkout our listings, we've attempted to translate our experiences into a great, rentable and preconfigured towable trailer. Happy camping!

Memories made on trips with James Lindsay's RVs

We had the BEST time camping with the Happier Camper. James was amazing and so helpful to us every step of the way. The camper had everything we needed to make our trip fun safe and exciting. We will do this again.

We had a blast renting the Happy One for our road trip from Boston to Niagara Falls and the Finger Lakes regions of NY. James was more than flexible with pickup and dropoff times, and the rig was great. We are seasoned tent campers, but with two younger kids and a number of stops along the way, the convenience and comfort the camper provided were a welcome change of pace. We were pleasantly surprised by how comfortable the mattresses were. We all slept well throughout the trip, a huge plus when you're outdoors for 10 days! The large windows and fan -- plus the ability to open the back hatch -- kept us cool despite the heat wave that hit NY on our trip. We appreciated the little touches James included, too, like extra marshmallow sticks, outdoor carpets, and fun lanterns.

James was so helpful and friendly. The camper was great and we had a fantastic time camping with it. Looking forward to hopefully taking it out again next year!

James was great. Everything was exactly as described in the listing. The camper was perfect! I would definitely go with this one again if I ever get the chance!

So much to say, so few characters! This rental was awesome. From pickup to drop off James was great about showing me all the features and hookups. The process was smooth and our enjoyment was through the roof. A very comfortable, well-designed unit it had everything we needed. Navigating the roads was even easier than I hoped and we slept soundly next to Lake Winnipesaukee in NH. The many windows gave us a nice breeze we didn't even need the A/C. It accommodated my wife and I along with our 12 yo 115 lb Lab, he loved that he could stretch out on the floor right next to us. I highly recommend this rental to anyone curious about trying a towed RV for a glimpse into the life, we'd rent it again in a heartbeat. Also, a really fun thing was the curiosity and interest of passerby's where we parked. So many people asked where we got it, what was the inside like, how was it to sleep in. I wished I had flyers to pass out! James - thanks again for helping us have a very memorable weekend!

Rented for a quick day trip. Super easy to hook up and tow. 2 small kids love the bunk. Came with everything needed for a relaxing trip with the family. I specifically needed the AC to keep the wife and kids happy campers and it didn't disappoint.

I had a great experience with James’ camper. It was easy for my Mazda CX-5 to tow and James was a very helpful host. Would recommend to anyone!

Amazing experience for our family of four. Lightweight trailer was easy to pull with my SUV (Volvo XC-90). Pick up was a breeze -- James walked me through everything and had a height-adjustable hitch for me to use. Our two kids (7 years old) loved the bunk beds and we slept very comfortably. We pulled the kitchenette out while we were at camp at it was great -- including a Kovea Cube Stove with 2 butane canisters that we used to make coffee and make breakfast.
