What others have to say....

"Belinda is my Roadtrip Fairy Godmother. She and her Gypsy Wind truly came to my rescue! 

My husband and I decided to drive cross-country from Oakland to Baltimore, and all I could find were huge RVs that were just too big for what we needed, and I was terrified of driving one. 
Then I found Belinda and Gypsy Wind. 

Belinda a DELIGHT to work with in advance, getting all our paperwork together, and working out all the logistics of such a massive trip - she was patient, understanding, and helped facilitate all the insurance, etc. 

When it came time to pick up, Belinda gave us a thorough walk through, along with the most awesome binder I've ever seen - all the info we could ever need. She was so organized, a trait near and dear to my heart. 

And Gypsy Wind itself is in AMAZING condition. Don't let her age discourage you, she is a fantastic vehicle. The stereo has been upgraded to hook in your iPhone. Every aspect of the interior has been pristinely maintained. And she drives like an SUV, not a monster - even gets great gas mileage. 

After 6,431 miles, all I can say is we are looking forward to planni
ng our next trip in The Gypsy Wind. Thank you Belinda!!!"

​"Belinda was a joy to work with; she was friendly, flexible and professional.  She provided us with great tips and terrific advice on how to get the most out of our adventure.

Gypsy Wind was absolutely perfect for us.  It was spotless and equipped with everything we could possibly want or need. Gypsy Wind is easy to drive and super comfortable to sleep in with so many special touches.  We had the time of our life camping in Big Sur.  

The entire trip from our first contact with Belinda to inquire about availability to the day we dropped it off was effortless and fun every step of the way.  We cannot wait to take Gypsy Wind out on the road again."

“We decided to rent Gypsy Wind because of cost, size, make and level of comfort provided. Belinda was always very responsive, easy to work with and the renting experience was smooth and simple. The kits provided, Bedding, BBQ and Camping were a real deal, so many extras which came in handy here and there which you don’t want to bring along, especially when you fly in like we did. 

 
We took Gypsy Wind up US Hwy 1 to the Oregon border, Crater Lake and back, she drives beautifully, also on narrow and winding roads and the mileage for our 1,100 mile trip was just around 22 mpg. We spent seven nights in the RV, slept well, had plenty of space and had everything we needed including a warm shower when we camped off road. Thank you Belinda for providing a great RV and an unforgettable outdoor experience”!

"We are new to ‘RV-ing’.  The Gypsy Wind was our first experience in using / renting a RV. Below are my reflecting about Belinda Joy and her class B Roadtrek RS Adventurous, Gypsy Wind, on the pre-work, training / support, and our California RV Adventure.

Pre-work:
Belinda is attentive and well organized. There are several steps required to rent a private RV, it is not like renting car from Avis or Hertz. Belinda had all of the documents available and made the paperwork easy to follow. She spoke with me on the phone to ensure I was comfortable with the process. Belinda takes the guess work out of the process.
 
Training / Support:
Belinda had us schedule 90 minutes to go through the RV. Initially, I thought this was a lot of time but with an RV there are so many separate systems and information to cover, we needed the full amount of time.  With so much information there were things I missed. Belinda encouraged me to text or phone if I needed clarification. In the first 24 hours, we texted 3 or 4 questions and Belinda was there with a quick answer. Belinda professional and supportive nature made our first time RV rental experience easy. We were then free to enjoy our adventure.

California RV Adventure:
I am a big guy. I stand 6’ 2” and go 200 pounds. I am used to filling up small spaces around me. Although I could not stand upright inside the RV, it was very close. I found I could walk around and the soft ceiling forgiving. Living space in the RV was fine for me. There are cabinets and drawers for clothing. The cook area and supplies were sufficient for simple meals. We dined in the RV 9 or 10 times in our five days: including 2 breakfasts next to the Pacific Ocean and several meals in the coastal Sequoias.

But what about the restroom? I found could latch the door closed and still navigate the restroom. I did not use the shower in the RV as the campgrounds had showers. I found the restroom similar to airplane restrooms: small but usable.
 
So what did we learn? We learned lots of things.
  • *Belinda is an excellent business person who eases the process and lets us enjoy the adventure.
  • *There are scores of little things in an RV that can be done to improve the experience and Gypsy Wind is well appointed.
  • *Although an RV restroom looks ridiculously small: it is big enough.
  • *We preferred dining in the front of the RV but the Gypsy Wind let us try both a front and back table.
  • *Space can be close but big enough.
  • *We will RV again.​"

"We recently rented Gypsy Wind for a 9 day trip up the Oregon Coast.   I’m happy to say that every aspect of the rental and experience with Belinda exceeded our expectations.  

The RV itself is in beautiful condition, drives like a van and is very comfortable for sleeping, cooking and enjoying a great road trip.  This was our very first RV trip and we found everything very easy to use and well-designed.  
 
Working with Belinda was a real pleasure.  She’s incredibly well-organized and took the time to answer all of my “newbie” questions.  She provides well-organized binders that helped us answer the few questions we had while on our trip.  Although we did not need to contact her, she was available by phone/text during our entire trip..
 
We highly recommend Gypsy Wind and Belinda if you are considering renting an RV.  We hope to rent her again soon!"

"The rental of Belinda's RV was a fantastic experience.

The first component that made this a great experience was the very accurate and detailed website that was excellent in conveying the picture of the RV and all that was included.

The second component was the personal interaction with Belinda both before and during the reservation period. That interaction was extremely helpful.

The last important component of this trip was the quality of the RV. The RV was in excellent condition both visually and mechanically. In addition, the RV was clean and well stocked with items that made our day-to-day living very comfortable and are not included in RVs rented from a commercial vendor.

Also included is a detailed binder of information about all the systems of the RV and all the help numbers should there be any mechanical problems.

We have rented RVs in the past with good results. Our entire rental experience with Belinda Joy and her RV was far above all of our past experiences."


Seldom, can I say this . . . "Belinda is fantastic, just keep doing what you are doing.""

"We are a retired couple with years of tent and tent trailer camping under our belts. 

Recently, when we were to attend a family reunion to be held at Sunset Beach, California, we decided it was time to pamper ourselves and go in style.  

We rented Gypsy Wind from Belinda.  From the start she went out of her way to answer our questions, allow us "practice time" driving and familiarizing ourselves with her RV.   Her price was reasonable.  

She made pick up easy and convenient, and was available during our rental in case we had questions or problems.  We did have a couple of questions, but no problems!  

Gypsy Wind was in excellent condition; well stocked and organized; comfortable beds; good storage; convenient - and what we liked best of all -- wonderful bathroom facilities.  NO unpleasant odors!  So nice not to have to walk to the campground restrooms in the middle of the night.

We're spoiled now.  Our tent or tent trailer camping days may be over."


~ The Blaisdell's, Sacramento, CA.

​“Belinda was very welcoming and patient with us during the whole process of inquiries, the gathering required documents and during our orientation in the Gypsy Wind. Belinda led us through the entire rig with instructions that were backed up by a thorough binder covering everything you may have forgotten in the generous 1 1/2 hour orientation.

The RV is pristine, well laid out and stocked with all that we needed to make our first foray into RV adventure including Peets coffees! The back doors open out, with the bug screen zippered in, we were able to sleep with the breeze blowing through the cabin and the night sky glistening above.

The RV is a more comfortable ride than I'd expected and it handles well. We dry camped at a festival for the weekend, so we didn't have the experience of hook ups and dumping. We did find that the bed when set up afforded a firmer mattress than was comfortable for us. This was easily remedied by putting down some yoga mats between the bottom sheet and cushions.

I absolutely recommend Belinda and her Gypsy Wind adventure mobile to anyone wanting to take "it" on the road.”

​“Back in Germany we recall the two weeks in your 'Gypsy Wind' with ultimate pleasure. Looking back, I have to say, that all of our expectations have been met or exceeded. Traveling northern California and Oregon, we have passed through fantastic landscapes, both mountains and seaside. 

The RV, even not a youngster, was in best running condition, flawless driving those many miles. All the outfit, kitchenware, camping kit, bedding was of high quality. If we needed something - torch, bottle opener, matches, tools, you name it - virtually everything was on board, clean and well organized. 

And one more thing, Belinda, it was a pleasure to meet you. 

I can honestly recommend anybody planning an RV experience to use the 'Gypsy Wind'.

We wish you tons of luck in the future."
