Roaming Renshaw's

Deep Creek Lake has been an annual family vacation for the last 25 years! We’ve always stayed in individual houses, some right on the lake, some lake view, and some on side streets far away from the lake. I would recommend for anyone looking for winter rentals, it doesn’t make a whole lot of sense Read more

When we go on vacation, which is quite frequently, it’s a production to get everything ready.  I understand most people would want to make sure the grass is cut and the house straightened up…maybe drop the pets off for boarding.  Our house is a lot more involved! The whole family loves animals in general and Read more

WOW! It’s been a while since we left the travel trailer behind and camped with the kids in a tent. Our last tent camping adventure with them was in Outer Banks West KOA a few years ago and ended with a last minute pack-up during torrential rains and driving home a night early before getting Read more

After staying in Hatteras in 2023, this year we moved back north in OBX and stayed in our usual spot in Ocean Sands, Corolla. We also went back for two weeks this year instead of the short one week like we did last year. It goes without saying, but any vacation away from work for Read more

For our first camping trip of 2024, we decided to combine trips and save some money! My cousin was getting married at the Avalon Yacht Club and we wanted to see what options might be available for overnight stays. After checking hotel costs and Airbnb, we decided to use the trip as a shakeout for Read more

We had recently taken delivery of our new travel trailer in October 2021. After a quick shake-out trip to Chincoteague Island in October we were really looking for a nice long distance trip. Also with it being close to my 40th birthday I was looking for a fun family excursion! We decided to head to Read more

Did you know that Georgia has armadillos?!? This was the first time that we had camped in Georgia and we noticed them by the road on our drive down and then they were at our campground. It wasn’t something we were expecting to see and became a pleasant surprise to see some new wildlife for Read more

Day 5 was our last full day in Costa Rica and it was another adventure packed day. The prior day we looked into zip lining or waterfall repelling tours since this was something that Hope was very interested in (fits right in with her rock climbing). Luckily one of the companies that we reached out Read more
