Tasha, Bill & Summer Robinson: A Starcraft RV Pathfinder Embracing the RV Lifestyle

Untethered with Endless Possibilities

Before owning an RV, life for the Robinson family felt much more tied to routine. Most of their adventures were limited to day trips or quick vacations that always felt rushed. A lot of time was spent dreaming about exploring new places but not having the flexibility to truly immerse in the journey.

Owning an RV completely changed that for them. They now have the freedom to turn those dreams into reality, slow down and embrace the adventure of life on the road. Every trip is an opportunity to create lasting memories and explore the world together as a family.

Slow Down and Enjoy the Little Moments

Living in the Midwest, you drive everywhere. It's just something you do. And the more you travel, the more your love for the outdoors will grow. Owning an RV opens up so many possibilities, from staying in National Parks and sleeping under the stars, to watching sunrises all from the comfort on your home away from home. And bring able to share those experiences with your little ones, is the cherry on top. The Robinsons hope to see as much of the US as they can. They’re committed to showing their daughter Summer, the wonder America has to offer.

Bonuses to Owning an RV

An RV is more than an avenue to enhance your time on the road. It strengthens family bonds. There’s something special about spending quality time together—whether it’s sharing stories around the campfire, working as a team to set up camp, or discovering new places side by side.

You can also count on developing a deeper connection with nature and a greater appreciation for simplicity. Living with less will show you how little you actually need to feel happy and fulfilled.

Arguably one of the sweetest benefits to owning an RV, is the community that comes with it. Meeting other RVers on the road will introduce you to an incredible community of adventurous, like-minded people.

Friendships That Last a Lifetime

The most surprising thing that the Robinson’s have encountered on the road is how amazing people really are. While on a trip to Washington DC, they watched fireworks on the grass behind the Washington Monument and were treated like family by some locals. The locals shared their blankets to sit with them and gave Summer glowsticks and a headband. But the most incredible part was when they stayed in a KOA outside of DC; where they met another family who were full-time RVers. They had a daughter about the same age as Summer and the girls became inseparable fast friends. Summer’s new friend celebrated her birthday while they were there and so many families showed up to make this day as special as they could for the little girl. Without knowing her, they all sang and wished her the happiest of birthdays.  

A Lifestyle That Surprises and Rewards in the Best of Ways

Narrowing down a top trip can be hard, when you’ve visited so many great spots! The Robinson’s thoroughly enjoyed staying in their RV in Glacier National Park – it’s at the top of the list for them and was a fantastic experience overall. They also enjoyed camping on the beach backed up to the dunes in OBX.  Staying right outside of Washington DC was very special to them as well as boondocking on the Wall in SD, outside of Badlands National Park.

This year, they plan to travel to Maine, stopping along the way to see Niagara Falls. After that, they hope to see Boston before heading home. A standout day to them is one that gives enough time to slow down and stop along the way. Because they have a limited amount of time off, they use a notebook for planning, to allow for maximum memory making.

“Everyday and every trip in my RV is different: but that’s what I love most about our RV life. It’s a blend of adventure, relaxation and community, all while having the comforts of home to return to.”
