About John's RV rentals

While teaching is my true passion and I am thrilled to have the opportunity to work with kids nine months of the year, I also love helping people get out and enjoy the outdoors. Growing up camping and taking backpack trips out west, I have come to love the freedom of going to the lake to fish and enjoying hikes through Wisconsin's abundant scenery. My wife and I have three great kids that have changed our ability to be gone for our summers, but would love the opportunity to help you enjoy a weekend away from home. Please do not hesitate to contact us with any questions. We will do everything within our power to accommodate your vacation needs for this camping season.

John was great to work with, very quick to respond and helpful. Many family members have used him for years and I see why. Highly recommend.

I have been using Black Dog Recreation for several years now at Devil's Lake Wi. John Scrabeck is the owner and he gives awesome service to anyone renting from him. He has many rentals and can always be reached by phone.
I( highly recommend him.

The RV was perfect for our family camping trip and John was quick to respond anytime we had a question. We are raving fans of Black Dog Recreation!

We had a great experience! The camper was clean and just what we needed. What really made the trip easy was the delivery, full setup, and pickup. Not having to deal with towing or leveling made a big difference.

This was our third trip with Black Dog. Always exceptional service. Would never use anyone else for our weekend or vacation trips.

We didn't travel with the RV but rather used it as additional living space at our cottage when we had the full family show up. The additional bedroom space was a godsend. The RV was clean and had very comfortable memory foam mattresses. The kids loved that they each had their own window and light at their bunks.

Very easy booking and great communication. The camper was perfect for our needs. Even had basic supplies, dishes, silverware, garbage can, hand soap, dish soap, which was more than we expected. We did the drop off and pick up which was on time and quick. Already booked again for next Memorial Day.

Camper was delivered to our farm and parked here for overflow houseguests here for Xmas. Worked great. Camper was clean and perfect for two adults and three young kids. Steve, our contact person, was easy to contact and very responsive. Highly recommend.

Such a great experience! My husband and I rented the camper with our 3 dogs, and it was perfect!
Steve was super helpful and showed us all the things we needed to know as first timers with a camper. Communication was also awesome - he was quick to respond to questions I had and willing to come out to help us!

Lots of room, in pretty good shape. John is great to work with - this is our second booking with him.
