We purchased a Camper Van a few years back and it's been great. We usually only use it for 3 to 4 day trips normally in Kananaskis. We've been as far as Golden with it. Two or three time a year at most.
Financially you could probably do better renting but you can never get a rental as all those Europeans just love to tour Canada in an RV. If you want to rent do so WAY in advance.

The kids think it's great. If the weather is bad we watch movies on the laptop. We like to go camping but are not fanatical or anything. As the boys get older we will likely sell it and not replace it.

Tires get cracked from sitting for long periods without moving.

You have to get the water pumped out of the lines at the end of the year ($85) or do it yourself.

Pro tip: Take the batteries out before you store it for winter. LOL!
