We love being on the water and in the snow, traveling to new places from the coast to the mountains. Our favorite trips include exploring the Oregon dunes & the Pacific Coast.

Great! Would rent again. Pick up and drop off was easy. Everything worked, no issues. It would be nice if the gray water tank was larger, but this worked fine for 1-2 people on a 3 day trip.

Excellent rental experience. The RV was in exceptional condition and very clean. James provided a detailed orientation and provided me with his personal cell number in case I had any questions. James made the pickup and return easy. He was very responsive leading up to the rental day and I had an awesome experience. Highly recommend renting from him.

Had a great trip up to Sedona and Grand Canyon. No problems with the hire and James was really helpful getting us a lift back into town at the end of our trip.

PERFECT, INCREDIBLE, AMAZING, LIFE LONG MEMORIES!!!!! These are the words that first come to mind after working with James. This was my first time operating an RV and James was so informative, I felt like a pro even before leaving the property. The rules and guidelines were easy to understand and follow. Even the beds were so comfy you felt like you were at home. James with flexible with pick up and drop off times which was beyond helpful. The RV was absolutely immaculate with every amenity needed and more. If your looking for an unforgettable trip with no hiccups, James is your guy. Thank you so much for allowing us to use your home on wheels...can't wait to work with you again!!!

James is organized, available, and helpful. We have rented from him several times and had no complaints. He runs a quality operation. We will definitely use him again.

We are first time rv renters. We had a great experience and James was an extreme help from beginning to end. He gave us an orientation to the entire rv along with helpful videos and manuals to assist us when necessary. Since it was our first go at this, I found myself calling James every day with questions I had on how to best care for the rv or get the maximum use out of it. If I didn't get him direct he called me back within minutes which was so comforting. We handed it back in and I could tell he was genuinely interested on how good of a time we had. We will definitely be using his rvs in the future and strongly recommend you consider him for your next adventure. What a wonderful experience with him.

Great experience. James takes great care of his RVs and makes himself available if you have any issues. Highly recommend if you're unsure.

James was absolutely terrific! I took my two adult sons from Tucson to Las Vegas, Flagstaff, and Winslow Arizona. The RV was terrific kept extremely clean and even though we had a slight generator problem, James took care of it immediately and even offered us an extra night. I would definitely rent from him again.

This was our first RV experience. The Minnie Winnie was an excellent choice for that. Easy to drive. Comfortable (there were 5 of us - 3 adults and 2 teenagers). Easy to operate. Good way to start learning the ropes. For any other first timers . . . Don’t despair. Dumping and flushing the waste water is no big deal! Minimal first timer hiccups.

We had a great experience renting from James at Silicon Valley Family Fun RVs. Our initial plans involved going to Oregon in September 2020, but unfortunately massive wildfires broke out across the state right before our trip. James was very accommodating and allowed us to reschedule our trip last minute. The Minnie Winnie we chose was perfect for our needs, and our family had a great time. We'd absolutely rent here again!

Overall this was a ok RV experience and the communication (or lack of it) from James was primary reason for the negative experience. First, the reservation had a wrong pick up address and I reached to that address and it was a junk yard. I waited there for 30 minutes trying to call James. He answered 30 minutes later (and he was out of town) and gave a different address for pickup. There was no one to walk me through the RV, one guy just gave me the keys and said he does not work for James, and as this was my first time I was little nervous. James asked me to just take a video to make sure everything is ok (which I did) and I also took lot of pictures of the RV. It was really very unprofessional to not have someone to walk through the RV rental. The gas tank lid was missing and few minor things which I pointed out to james over the phone. Same thing happened during return, James asked me to park it on some street and leave the key in the car which I did. We cleaned up the RV and it was in same if not better condition then when we received it (I have pictures taken when I was about to return). But today I saw a cleaning charge taken out of my security deposit and when I asked James about it, he mentioned "fridge could be cleaner, bathroom could used a little more cleaning etc"! Please take a look at the below after pictures which I took before returning the RV and see for yourself, the state of the RV when I returned it. Please beware as the owner is trying to nickle and dime you! I would NOT recommend this RV to anyone.
