The Arbutus RV Story

Vancouver Island's Trusted RV Dealer Since 1988

Welcome to Arbutus RV, your gateway to the boundless beauty of Vancouver Island and the enriching lifestyle that RVing offers. Founded by Craig Little in 1988, Arbutus RV opened its doors with a single location in Mill Bay, rooted in a passion for adventure and a commitment to the community. Since those early days, we've grown alongside our loyal guests, expanding to six sales locations and seven service centres across the Island, becoming a cornerstone for the Island RVing community.

At Arbutus RV, we're more than a company; we're a family of passionate enthusiasts dedicated to helping you find not just an RV, but a treasured vehicle you'll make countless family memories with along the way. With convenient locations in Sidney, Mill Bay, Nanaimo, Parksville, Port Alberni, and Courtenay, expert advice and a warm welcome are always within easy reach, no matter where your adventures take you on the Island.

Our carefully curated selection of new and pre-owned RVs—including motorhomes, travel trailers, fifth wheels, and more—is designed to meet every taste, need, and budget. We understand that every traveller has a unique story, and our mission is to provide you with the perfect RV to write your next chapters.
