Great Alaskan Holidays

What Great Alaskan Holidays does

Great Alaskan Holidays, Inc. is a privately-held, vertically-integrated RV company founded in 1985 and headquartered in Anchorage, Alaska. The company operates a fleet of hundreds of modern motorhomes — all no older than 3 model years — across five floorplans (Minnie Winnie 22M, 25B, 31K, 31H, and Solis 59PX campervan) accommodating 2-8 occupants. The fleet is 100% company-owned with no leaseback or third-party vehicles, and every unit passes a 41-point safety and maintenance inspection between rentals, performed by technicians at one of only three Ford Warranty Stations in Alaska. Great Alaskan Holidays is Alaska's only full-service Winnebago dealership and self-described largest RV dealer in the state, with new and certified pre-owned inventory ranging from $79,995 to $374,995 across Winnebago, Newmar, and Thor brands.

The business operates three integrated revenue lines: (1) recreational RV rentals, including a one-way Spring Adventure Package from Wakarusa, Indiana to Anchorage that has sold out annually for 34 years at $144.95/night with 4,300 free miles; (2) RV sales through a dedicated sales and finance team; and (3) parts and service at a Winnebago and Ford Fleet Warranty Station. The company runs capacity-controlled 15% promotional pricing for 2026 and 2027 bookings, a tiered VIP Rewards loyalty program (Silver through Double Diamond), and bundles a comprehensive outfitting package — linens, cookware, dishes, cleaning supplies, and unlimited generator use — into the base rental. GTM motion is primarily direct-to-consumer through a 24/7 online reservation portal and toll-free phone lines, with dedicated inside-sales channels for corporate groups, conventions, and B2B commercial/contractor rentals serving remote-site lodging needs.

The technology backbone is a real-time online reservation platform and customer portal with pre-arrival RV orientation video. Marketing runs through content (RV Rentals and RV Sales blogs), organic social (Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, LinkedIn), email newsletter, and partnerships with Visit Anchorage CVB, Alaska Travel Industry Association, RVDA, and RVRA, plus a deep excursion partner ecosystem spanning flightseeing, glacier/wildlife cruises, bear viewing, and fishing operators. The company is not venture-backed, has no parent or subsidiary structure, and discloses no revenue.
