About Rob and Joanna Welch

We love to travel and find new spots to chill. Checking out the local wildlife, mountains and finding new local craft breweries. We both work and take care of family so a weekend away is like GOLD.

Memories made on trips with Rob and Joanna Welch's RVs

We had a great trip, and really appreciated Rob and Joanna. The unit was spotless, and both departure and return worked very well. We travelled from Vancouver to the Okanagan, staying in Osoyoos and Penticton. We towed with a Tesla Model Y. The vehicle worked very well, though range is reduced when towing, as expected. Wherever we stopped to charge, we had people asking about the trailer, and towing it. We never had to unhitch to charge the vehicle, although once in Hope the trailer stalls were full, so we parked across three stalls for 20 minutes. There were many open stalls, so it wasn't an issue.

Glad things went so smoothly for you! It was a pleasure renting to you and we are happy you had such a great adventure.

This is the third time that we rented the Airstream BaseCamp from Rob and Joanna. They are wonderful to work with and always ensure that the Airstream is impeccably clean, fully-equipped and road-ready. The new bedding was comfy and cozy particularly when night temperatures dropped to 9c. We greatly appreciated the AC, heat and outdoor awning as the weather was unsettled. The milk frother, Bodum coffee maker and bean grinder were great additions.

We rented Xavier for a 10 day adventure through north central BC to Jasper National Park. This trailer housed our family of 4 (two children under 3). We all cozied up in the big bed, which was tight but actually quite fun and enjoyable. Towing Xavier was super easy with our Toyota Tacoma. We travelled some windy roads, and it was no problem. We loved the trailer and our adventure!

What a pleasure to rent to your whole family! We are sincerely happy that you enjoyed the trailer and had such a cozy stay. We hope you reach out again for another adventure.

We rented Xavier for a 4 day adventure to the Olympic Peninsula, WA state, visiting Port Angeles, Dungeness Spit, Neah Bay, Cape Flattery, Forks, Kalaloch Beach (Tree of Life), Lake Quinault, Seabrook (beach town), and finally across the ferry Kingston to Edmonds. Pulling the Basecamp behind our 4Runner was a piece of cake and most of the time you hardly even notice it. It was the perfect size for me and my wife and we really felt we were glamping with microwave, bathroom with shower, fridge/freezer, solar panel set up. Rob and Joanna did an amazing job walking through all of the features and electronics and although trailers may seem intimidating to newbies, they are really quite easy to manage. For sure we will rent Xavier again! ..

Joanne and Rob are awesome hosts. Orientation was very detail and thorough. Questions are answered within very short period of time.
Airstream is very easy tow. We got lots of attention from others. This baby is very cool to travel with.

This was our first time renting and pulling a trailer and Rob & Joanna's Airstream trailer was perfect!

Rob and Joanna were most helpful and patient as we had to make changes to our trailer electrical system and brake installation at the last minute. Once we were ready to go they took time to show us the ins and outs of the systems which, as seniors, meant more patience was required especially with the digital controls. The trailer tows beautifully up hill and down and along the winding roads in B.C. Kootenay area where we spent more than 3 weeks in 5 different camp sites. We found the bed spacious and comfortable; the sink and propane stove were extremely clean and easy to use. Storage cupboards were filled with a variety of kitchen equipment, especially appreciated were the electric kettle and toaster. The fridge has plenty of room and freezer works well, one needs to check adjustments to ensure balance. For older people (80 and 93) we found it a challenge to get down to see into cupboards and back of the fridge as well as the lack of inside seating when not wanting to convert the bed .. a small folding stool would help. We took folding chairs and a small table that easily stored under the bed through the back door. The solar panel kept batteries up when we were without electrical hook up for a couple of days. We would highly recommend renting from Rob and Joanna both because of their care and attention and because their Airstream Basecamp is in great condition and trailers very well.

This is an amazing trailer. Every detail has been thought of. Just bring food. Get the bedding package, worth the add on and very comfortable. Rob and Joanna were amazing hosts. Very organized at pickup and drop off. Easy trailer to tow and very stylish. Would definitely rent this again. Thanks for a great experience.
