The RV was perfect for our family of five, and Jason and Jeanine were extremely responsive to our questions at all times during the rental. The RVs were well maintained and clean and easy to drive. They were well stocked with everything we needed. The beds were extremely comfortable, too! I would be thrilled to rent from them again the next time we are in Alaska. Jeanine's fudge was a fantastic treat for the whole family!

We needed something easy to drive and maneuver around for a busy 5 day trip. We debated about RV vs van camper and I'm so so glad we chose a camper van with this "company". I put "company" in air quotes bc even though it is a business, it didn't feel that way. You can tell immediately this is a personal venture - Clinton was extremely prompt with any communication. We booked through outdoorsy.com and there was a system glitch two days before our arrival so my husband emailed Clinton and he called back very shortly afterwards to explain and confirm our van and dates of reservation. He picked us up at the airport (with a 6 am arrival time no less! He also dropped us off back at the airport) and then took his time to review the contract and functionality of the camper. He was thoughtful and thorough and very responsive. Felt like everything had a personal touch to it and he was honest. The camper is extremely well equipped. Bed is comfortable, and comes with pillows, sheets and an amazing comforter. There are drapes for privacy which was great to block out the night time light (since the sun sets so late here in the Summer; they're not black out drapes and we were told that from the get go. Again, honest owner ) and adds privacy when we parked (drapes blocks out the front and side windows). There is a pump sink, all the major cooking pots and cast iron pan (!), coffee pot, propane portable grill, table for eating inside and folding table for grilling roadside. Large cooler also comes with. Recessed lighting and surround sound with Bluetooth connection means you're one click away from a van party (Seriously. The bass is legit.). Comes with plugs and usb connection and axillary battery to charge all your mobile devices. The van is smooth to drive (okay, I admit, I didn't drive it, but my husband loved it and said it was easy to use and drive). We averaged 25-30 miles a gallon (which is amazing for a van). It was clean, quiet, and totally met and exceeded our needs and expectations! #glamping Hands down if we come back again, we will be looking to rent from Northern Nomads again. They won't leave your stranded. Clinton was telling us how he's looking into a spare van/camper to make sure people who book with him won't be stranded should there be an issue with the van (ex. Tire issue, bull moose crash - these are real examples). You spend a lot of time, money and energy getting to the last frontier, you want to make sure it's a solid trip. THIS will give you a home to stay while maximizing your time in Alaska!

I love to camp. But frankly, RV "camping" is a concept I don't quite grasp. However, something…read moreweird is going on with the bears this year (I'm sure it's related to the weird weather and food scarcity), so my honey decided to surprise me with a last minute RV rental. I was really shocked he was able to find a same day available RV to rent in June, since RV's reservations are made MONTHS in advance in the summer in Anchorage. He scoured the internet and found this teeny mom n pop company listed on Outdoorsy.co (not .com) that had an RV immediately available. He was able to make his reservation and payment on line and the RV was ready for pickup a few hours later. We showed up to pick up the RV at 6pm and I have to say, the place looked sketchy. There's no signs, not office and the lot is way in the back down a bumpy dirt road. But, everything actually turned out to be fine. The fleet is a little older, but the owner Tom is a mechanic and keeps everything running fine. It's quite a bit cheaper than some of the other places in town with newer fleets. We're hardcore Alaskans that don't believe in glamping; we just wanted hard sided protection from wildlife. Tom's and his helper spent a long time with us giving us the RV 101 orientation, which was awesome. The RV had everything we needed, although I do wish it had USB chargers. Note to self, bring a cell charger that plugs into the cig lighter. But everything was a-ok. We had all the kitchen doodads we needed, and since we mentioned Yelp we got free linens. Insurance was included. Tom made us very safe and let us know if we had any issues or questions we could call or text day or night. He also said he'd provide roadside assistance should we need it. I really appreciated the personalized service. If you like supporting the little guy, I highly recommend giving Alaska Family Motorhomes a shot! We'll definitely rent from them again if the need arises.

We returned the RV on 7/6/2025, with the door lock handle broke. But today it's 10/14/25, I cannot get my insurance deposit back so far! Kate took my call a couple of times and told me she ordered the door handle part for replacement and the deposit return process takes long etc. I did not push her too much, however, it seems not reasonable after 3 months they still hold my deposit. and she reject to reply my message and not pick up my call any more. It's not the right way to do the business. I believe every rental should have the same $1000 insurance deposit, what's your experience to get back your deposit return?

Because of her, our trip was smoother, cheaper, and just a lot more fun. We'll 100% be booking with her again -- and recommending her to anyone heading to Alaska.

Aside from the van being very nice and well designed, Carolyn, the owner, is so professional and kind. I lost the keys to the van on a hike about 2 hours out of town and was stuck outside during winter and when I called for help she had a preplanned solution to it that helped me get back in quickly. It was my first time driving on icy roads and I did cause some damage to the van, which was worrying because I was afraid of telling the owner directly about this, but she was incredibly professional about it, reassuring, and helpful solving it. To make matters worse, in a fit of exhaustion upon returning the vehicle, I locked the only set of keys in the van. She was unbelievably patient despite a whole comedy of errors on my behalf. Overall lovely experience with this company and highly recommend.

This was our first time in a camper van, and we were a little apprehensive, but the van is easy to drive, and is well equipped with everything you will need to make your Alaska Adventure worry free. It was a joy not to have to set up a tent each night, and to know we would be warm and dry if we encountered bad weather. The van has a heater and a refrigerator, as well as more storage space than we expected. Compared to the high cost of renting a car to get around and still having to pay for a campground or hotel room, the van cost was very reasonable. Plus, because we didn't have to pack up each time we moved to a new location, we had more time to enjoy our trip.

My son in law went and took our extra car to a lookout for phone reception and called the emergency # which was provided to us from the RV company. A gentleman drove from Palmer to Hidden Lake which is about a 3.5 drive at 7 pm and arrived at our camp around 10:30. A cellonoid went out, he had the extra part and he drove home. Apparently this is the only company that has guys on call with spare parts for emergencies That alone receives 5 stars!!!

But definitely avoid these guys. What could have been a great week in an RV was ruined by their defective RV and unresponsive customer service.
