b&amp;amp;b rv rental was great. Pete was very pleasant and easy to deal
with, Price was great. I'v passed his name,number &amp;amp; site onto 4
people already who want to rv in Alaska, best was to see Alaska. You
choose when and where you want to go and when to stop.We went mainly to
Homer to fish where I caught a 260lb Halibut, We hope to go again in a
few years and will rent from b&amp;amp;b again&lt;br /&gt;

We went to Alaska for 10 days. July 25 thru August 3. We rented an RV
from Pete at B&amp;amp;B RV rentals. Everything went very smoothly. The RV was
ready when we got there. Pete picked us up and was very accommodating.
There were a few small problems like not having a toaster or pots and
pans in the RV but most everything went well. Pete was very easy to
talk to and was very accommodating when booking the trip. Everything
went smoothly over the internet. His communications for the most part
were very timely. We had a great time RVing in Alaska and would
definitely rent from Pete again.</description><category>Alaska RV Rental</category><comments>http://blog.bnbrv.com/2010/05/06/bb-rv-rental-2.aspx#Comments</comments><guid isPermaLink="false">dbd260a5-7c68-4d99-a8f1-0218a2c281e1</guid><pubDate>Thu, 06 May 2010 14:23:00 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title>B&amp;B RV Rental</title><link>http://blog.bnbrv.com/2010/05/06/bb-rv-rental.aspx?ref=rss</link><dc:creator>Rv Rental in Alaska</dc:creator><description>&lt;span id="EC_rolx_document" style="font-family: arial; font-size: 13px; color: #000000;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #ff0000; font-size: 16px;"&gt;After calling&amp;nbsp;&lt;span style="text-decoration: underline;"&gt;every&lt;/span&gt; RV rental place in
Anchorage,&amp;nbsp;we&amp;nbsp;found B &amp;amp; B's&amp;nbsp;prices were lower than the rest,
and Pete's&amp;nbsp;attitude&amp;nbsp;was different than the others. The first thing we
noticed when we called was that he actually LISTENED to us and
answered&amp;nbsp;our&amp;nbsp;questions intelligently.&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color: #ff0000; font-size: 16px;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; That was just the
beginning of a really wonderful business experience! There were&amp;nbsp;NO tricks
or unpleasant surprises. On the contrary, Pete and his son went out of their way
to do more for us than we'd contracted for and had expected...and at no
additional charge!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color: #ff0000; font-size: 16px;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; How refreshing it was to find
a business that&amp;nbsp;still provides MORE service than advertised, and&amp;nbsp;yet
charges&amp;nbsp;NO MORE&amp;nbsp;than&amp;nbsp;they say!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 16px; color: #ff0000;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Our two weeks in Alaska were
fantastic...thanks in large part to our very positive experience in
renting&amp;nbsp;from B &amp;amp; B. It was all good!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

We rented an RV from Pete in May. It was an older model but we didn't
have one problem. We even had a new memory foam mattress and it was
heaven sleeping and looking at the mountains from our bed. We loved
Pete's son, he picked us up and took us back to the airport. Very nice
young man and so very helpful. Pete couldn't have been more helpful in
his emails and phone calls. There were no hidden charges anywhere. The
price he quoted (which was very good) was the price charged with
everything included. I would rent from this company again and again.</description><category>Alaska RV Rental</category><comments>http://blog.bnbrv.com/2010/05/05/the-true-alaska-stars.aspx#Comments</comments><guid isPermaLink="false">114e774c-51a9-4728-b3ed-8330f706c249</guid><pubDate>Wed, 05 May 2010 15:15:00 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title>Pets are Welcome</title><link>http://blog.bnbrv.com/2010/05/05/pets-are-welcome.aspx?ref=rss</link><dc:creator>Rv Rental in Alaska</dc:creator><description>Rich from Florida wrote:&lt;br /&gt;

I shopped the Anchorage rental RV market and moved my reservation from
a “national chain” to Pete’s BNB RV. Now that the trip is in the rear
view mirror, I can say there were no regrets. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Some of the things I enjoyed most were:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Pick up and return to the Anchorage airport&lt;br /&gt;
Pet friendly&lt;br /&gt;
Fully stocked RV (except for food and paper goods, which I expected to buy)&lt;br /&gt;
Pet friendly&lt;br /&gt;
Great price with no add-ons&lt;br /&gt;
Pet friendly&lt;br /&gt;
Immediate response to one minor issue&lt;br /&gt;
Well maintained RV&lt;br /&gt;
Did I mention they are very pet friendly?&lt;br /&gt;

When we planned our first RV trip to Alaska this year in May, we
compared a lot of RV rentals. Finally we decided us for BNB Rv. The
reasons were that the pricing was very evident (no hidden and adding up
add-on costs) and also the price was unbeatable cheap. Open questions
and concerns were answered by Pete to our satisfaction and he was also
very obligeant regarding scheduling an early pick-up of the RV with no
extra cost. After arriving in Anchorage we first were a little
concerned about the RV (was not the latest model), but it looked good
and well maintained. This impression was confirmed during the whole
cruise, the RV did really good. Coming closer and closer to the end of
our trip we figured that our plan (driving Denali-Anchorage in 5h to
arrive there on 11:00am) is not feasible. Talking to Pete in this
regards he also was very flexible and obligeant to us (we arrived some
hours later). Overall we (2adults + 2children) were very satisfied with
BNB RV and their customer care!!! So we can definitively recommend Pete
and his crew to anybody. Thank you Pete again for everything.</description><category>Alaska RV Rental</category><comments>http://blog.bnbrv.com/2010/05/05/the-best-rv-trip.aspx#Comments</comments><guid isPermaLink="false">0381f144-6dce-4e6b-8102-6270ad4bd3d3</guid><pubDate>Wed, 05 May 2010 15:13:00 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title>B&amp;B RV Rental</title><link>http://blog.bnbrv.com/2010/05/05/bb-rv-rental.aspx?ref=rss</link><dc:creator>Rv Rental in Alaska</dc:creator><description>Dave from Oregon wrote:&lt;br /&gt;

I stayed in one of the Rv's and we took it from Anchorage to Kenai and
then on to Homer. Had a wonderful time and caught a 50ld and 80lb
Halibut that I had shipped home. It is yummy. I recommend RVing in
Alaska and will do it again. Pete, the owner of the place is a funny
guy and a native Alaskan. He knows all the good places to go and see.
Thanks Pete.</description><category>Alaska RV Rental</category><comments>http://blog.bnbrv.com/2010/05/05/bb-rv-rental.aspx#Comments</comments><guid isPermaLink="false">bbeb15ef-40ab-4cc6-94dd-63bd780e2c0a</guid><pubDate>Wed, 05 May 2010 15:12:00 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title>B&amp;B RV</title><link>http://blog.bnbrv.com/2010/05/05/bb-rv.aspx?ref=rss</link><dc:creator>Rv Rental in Alaska</dc:creator><description>Dennis from Duluth wrote:&lt;br /&gt;

I JUST FINISHED BOOKING OUR RV WITH PETE AT B&amp;amp;B AND HE COULD NOT
HAVE BEEN MORE FLEXIBLE AND EASY TO DEAL WITH. I HAVE MADE SEVERAL RV
TRIPS IN AK AND HAVE BEEN A LITTLE FRUSTRATED IN THE PAST WITH
Inflexible PICKUP AND Drop off TIMES AND HAVING TO WAIT IN LINE TO
WATCH THE SAME VIDEO EVERY YEAR. NOT TO MENTION THE TIMES OUR RV WAS
NOT READY OR THEY WANT TO CHARGE YOU FOR EVERY LITTLE THING LIKE TP AND

B&amp;amp;B RV was great! Pete was amazingly accommodating, digging Minnie
the Winnie out of the snow for us to take for three weeks into Valdez
to ski.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The RV allowed for amazing flexibility to sleep where we wanted
(Thompson Pass was too cold, so we often spent the night at a lower
elevation), save $$by cooking our own meals, and hang out after skiing
to play cards, watch movies, etc...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Perhaps winter isn't the most comfortable time to be RVing, but it was
exactly what we were looking for!

It seems like fun and you'd like to try it, but you aren't sure if it's for you. Well, it's a growing industry. Annual RV retail sales topped $14 billion in 2004. As baby boomers take to the road, the RVing pastime and lifestyle are becoming increasingly popular. If you have a hint of the RV itch, then here are 10 common reasons for taking an RV vacation: RV Vacation 1. Getting Back to Nature: If you are interested in the great outdoors, an RV is a great way to vacation. You can visit state or national parks, tour famous landmarks and simply enjoy some fresh air and natural settings. Take a hike or go fishing. Try white water rafting or canoeing. Play some golf, go swimming, ride your bike. Get some exercise or simply do nothing but enjoy your surroundings. 2. The Comforts of Home: In an RV, you can have the best of both worlds. Enjoy the great outdoors with more creature comforts than tent camping. Whether you own an RV or try a rental, most RVs are well equipped. You will likely have a kitchen with microwave, fridge and stove, a TV and VCR, beds, living and dining areas and bathroom with shower. Many RVs have slide out rooms that increase the living area at the touch of a button. You can sit outside under your awning, get out of the rain if the weather changes, and turn on the air conditioner if it gets too hot. 3. Family Matters: Family members of all ages tend to connect with each other when they are away from their normal routine enjoying a simpler lifestyle. Remember that family togetherness can be a double-edged sword. While the RV is comfortable, it is a small living area for a large family. If you are renting, bear this in mind in choosing the size of your rental RV. During the day, try to spend time outdoors or in different activities, so that each family member gets a bit of personal space and time for themselves. But the minor logistics can be managed. The general consensus among RVing families is that an RV vacation tends to bring the family closer together with more communication and the sharing of good times. 4. Cool for Kids: An RV vacation can be a great way to travel with children. They can go out to play or take part in campground activities. There are likely to be other kids to meet and new places to explore. Children of all ages will enjoy an old-fashioned campfire complete with stories, songs and stargazing. And most kids think it's pretty cool to be in an RV "home on wheels". 5. Campgrounds: There are many choices in campgrounds and RV parks. In peak season and tourist areas, you should make reservations. Look for the amenities that are important to you. Campgrounds may have swimming pools, lakes, boating, fishing ponds, miniature golf, playgrounds, hiking trails, game rooms, walking or bike paths, tennis courts and activities for kids and adults. You may find dances, barbeques, contests or other entertainment. RV Clubs are worth joining to get campground discounts and other services. Consider the size and setting of the campsites and check out overall campground ratings in campground directories. Also consider proximity to other attractions or landmarks that you want to visit. 6. Flexibility: In an RV, you have the flexibility to change locations if you get the whim. But take this with a grain of salt. For popular destinations, you may not be able to pick up and find another campground without a reservation. You also want to strike the right balance between seeing different areas, the amount of time spent driving and ensuring you have enough time to relax. Cautions aside, an RV can give you a lot of freedom and spontaneity. RV travel appeals to an inner pioneering spirit and allows you to create your own adventure as you go along your way. You can explore the country at your own pace or take off for last minute mini-vacations, tailgating events and weekend trips. 7. Affordability: The question of whether it is cheaper to take an RV vacation doesn't have a "one size fits all" answer. The comparison really depends on the type of vacations you would take instead, as well as the way in which you plan to RV. For a one-time trip, you can compare the costs of renting a suitable RV to the costs of hotels, airfare or other means of travel. Or if you are considering regular RV vacations, you may want to purchase a motorhome or towable trailer. In this case, you would need to factor in operating costs, maintenance and the purchase price. In an RV, you can save money by cooking meals at home vs. dining out. You can minimize expenses if you take advantage of activities and amenities already included in the campground rate. Fuel expenses can be managed by reducing the distances traveled and staying longer at a given campground or park. 8. Driving the RV: Driving yourself gives you control over where you go and the pace of your travel. You don’t have the hassle of airline counters and keeping to schedules. You can stop and take a break when you choose. You don't need a special license to drive an RV. Sure, it takes some getting used to -- but the number of RVs on the road should tell you that it is doable. Practice on your own (or with one other person) before you load up your passengers. Take advantage of any classes available through your dealer or one of the many RV organizations. 9. How about a relaxing vacation for a change? How many times have you returned from a trip saying you need a vacation from the vacation? Now don't kid yourself - if you are the type who likes to schedule all the details of a trip, that's not going to change simply because you are traveling in an RV. But in choosing an RV vacation, you may shift your thinking and be more apt to use your time off as an opportunity to truly relax and unwind. 10. Test out the RV Lifestyle: The RV vacation may serve as a test drive to gauge your overall interest in the RV lifestyle. There are RVers who spend several weeks per year in RV travel. Other RVers take off for months. Snowbirds are RVers who make an annual trek to warmer climates for the winter season. And then there are fulltime RVers whose only home is their RV. Many of these people started out by vacationing in an RV as a way to try out the RV lifestyle. &lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;&lt;A href="http://www.your-rv-lifestyle.com/rv-vacation.html"&gt;http://www.your-rv-lifestyle.com/rv-vacation.html&lt;/A&gt;&lt;BR&gt;</description><category>Rv Vacation</category><comments>http://blog.bnbrv.com/2008/03/16/rv-vacation.aspx#Comments</comments><guid isPermaLink="false">259ed5c0-ab66-451d-8b4c-7967d3ad1dfe</guid><pubDate>Sun, 16 Mar 2008 18:12:00 GMT</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
