Fleet

RV enthusiasts can choose from their limited range of new and well-maintained coaches. These Class C Winnebago Minnie RVs are recent models so fewer problems.

All RVs come equipped with fascinating extras like electrical awnings, exterior outside shower, kitchen utensils, and comfort kit with linens and towels.

Vehicles

Winnebago Minnie Winnie 25B

A brand new Winnebago based upon a Ford chassis, this beautiful 6 berth is a mid-sized motorhome with well-designed layout. It is furnished with a nice and equipped kitchen. Adjacent to each other are the large U-shaped dinette and sofa slide— both convert into single beds. There's also an overhead bed that sleeps two. The back area is for the cornered queen bed as well as the shower and toilet. This isn't a very big motorhome so do not expect for an overly roomy interior. Still, this RV gives you more than enough. 

Winnebago Minnie Winnie 31G

For bigger groups up to 7, the Winnebago 31G is the only option. This 2017 bunkhouse model also features a Ford chassis for a powerful and efficient drive. The full wall slide-out starts from the living room up to the bedroom. This one has a more private walk-around queen bedroom because of the sliding door attached before the bedroom entry. The bathroom is conveniently located before the rear bedroom and it comes with another sliding door for easy access. The unit provides you with all you need— dinette bed, sofa sleeper, bunks, kitchen, closet, nightstand, chest of drawers and TVs. 

Insurance

Just like most companies, you are required to provide a proof of insurance to confirm your rental. Further, Western Skies offers insurance coverage in case you can't provide an insurance binder for the rented RV. Normally, the deductible is $1,000; hence, a $500 - $1000 security deposit to be required and paid on a major credit card. 

Reputation

The reputation of Western Skies has been earned satisfactorily. They are new to the business but they've got so much RV expertise that gives them an advantage compared to the newbie RV entities. Because of that, their demand has been much higher than previous years, especially for their rentals. They have been expanding their market and accordingly, there are certain learning curves with regards to new and slightly incompetent service people. Still, the company is a nice and reputable option if you are in the market for an RV. Their location is also a plus factor. 

Summary

Offering newer family RVs from their limited rental fleet, Western Skies is one decent option for renters on the look for affordable high-quality coaches housed at an accessible depot.
