Meet Smokey, our 2023 Thor Rize, designed to make vanlife feel simple, stylish, and comfortable. By day, you’ll enjoy a cozy couch perfect for relaxing, reading, or planning your next adventure. By night, it quickly transforms into a comfortable bed so you can recharge for tomorrow’s travels.Unlike many camper vans, Smokey’s rear bathroom gives you a little extra elbow room — a rare treat on the road! You’ll also have all the essentials of a tiny home: a refrigerator to keep your favorites fresh, a gas cooktop and sink for easy meals, and plenty of storage to tuck away all your gear and “stuff.”Smokey also makes sure you’re comfortable no matter where you roam: screens to let in the breeze (but not the bugs), a generator to keep the batteries charged for off-grid adventures, and air conditioning to keep things cool when the Florida sun (or any sun!) gets a little too hot.Whether you’re chasing the coast, escaping to the woods, or just looking for a weekend getaway, Smokey is your cozy camper companion, ready to roll.*** Currently the generator is not working and parts are back-ordered. Still a great vehicle and perfect for any adventures that you have electric hook-ups at your destinations or have driving days to charge the batteries while driving.

Rules and policies
We hope you treat our "home away from home" with the same love you would your own home!
We have carefully crafted the description and pictures so that you know exactly what you will be renting! We love our RV (Pongo is its name) and we hope you too!
I am one to think there are no rules on vacation, but we do have a few items for you to respectfully follow!
NO SMOKING inside the RV. Most campgrounds have a picnic table and we have one stored in a compartment for you to use. Please smoke OUTSIDE the RV. Many have strong sensitivities to the smell of smoke and we hope to make sure everyone feels welcome. There will be fees assessed to the deposit in order to deep clean the RV based on smoke smells/damage.
PETS ARE ALLOWED, however there are additional pet deposits to accommodate your furry family member! This deposit will cover for any additional damages that a pet could possibly make... screens scratched, chewing walls (yes, I have seen it), destroyed pillows/furniture. If you are traveling with a pet, I highly recommend you purchase the "Damage Protection" option. Your standard insurance covers damages outside the vehicle, but the damage protection provides you reimbursement for the mishaps that could happen inside. It is only $69 for your trip and will reimburse you up to $1500.
KIDS ARE ALLOWED and of course encouraged! Our family had an amazing adventure going to 14 National Parks... trip of a lifetime! We now can't wait for our next long trip Summer 2022! As will your pets, kids can be a little rough on things... I recommend you purchasing the "Damage Protection" to accommodate any mishaps!
FESTIVALS/BOONDOCKING ALLOWED! So many owners prohibit RV's to be used for Festivals (especially Burning Man), as well as Boondocking. From our experience that is due to a few renters destroying RV's, which concerns other RV Owners. As always, the actions of the few "ruin" things for everyone! We are all for you enjoying a festival or finding that perfect secluded spot or farm to boondock on, but you must let us know! We will add on an additional $500 deposit to ensure we are covered for any additional damages that could be incurred. You enjoy your time and we both have peace of mind that we are both covered in case of any random damage occurs! If you do not let us know prior to your trip, there will be a $200 fee deducted from your deposit, in addition to $$ to cover damages incurred.
DO NOT WALK/SIT ON THE ROOF! The roof of RV's is not meant to walk on except for emergency and specific maintenance purposes. Why there is an easy access ladder, RV owners will never know! Please, for your personal safety and to ensure no damages to the RV, stay off the roof of the RV.

Our family has loved every RV adventure from the long weekend to a beach, to a week visiting family, to a 10-week summer trip, to a “once in a lifetime” 100-day adventure with the family. We have visited 29 National Parks, countless state parks and can talk for hours upon hours about the incredible stories from the road. We love sharing that experience to help make your trip flawless! We have a growing "litter" of RV's, each named after a 101 Dalmatian. Our first RV was named Pongo and the tradition continues with a new dalmatian name for each RV.
We will take our time making sure your trip is flawless from start to finish. That starts with trip planning help. Then conducting a very detailed walk-through showing the inside and outs of the RV and providing you confidence to relax on your trip. The icing on the cake is the option of simply handing over the keys, while we do all the dirty work by dumping the waste tanks and filling water, propane and gasoline.
One big difference when you rent with me– We have business called Jacksonville RV Rentals and have been renting for 5 years now gaining Tons of experience. If a complication comes up with your RV prior to your reservation, we most likely can switch it out for another similar RV! This is a huge difference than most other RV's listed. We have welcomed many guests into our RV’s. The reviews speak for our success. You are renting with a small family business that takes pride in responding quickly to any question, even if it is 2:00AM. If you are new to the RV world, no worries at all! We are experienced in every aspect of RV “glamping”, providing an opportunity to assist with your planning needs and to provide suggestions to make your adventure more enjoyable. While you are out on the road, we are one phone call or text away and have the experience to trouble-shoot anything that comes up. You are not left to “figure it out”, we will provide you a detailed 60–90 minute walk through to ensure you are comfortable in operating the RV and can then enjoy the journey.
