A unique collaboration between Camco, a manufacturer of premium solutions for recreational vehicles, and RV Overnights, the online platform and app that enables RV travelers to find uncommon, memorable one-night stays at small businesses across the United States and Canada, will give RV Overnights’ (RVO) hosts an opportunity to enhance their guests’ experiences and add another revenue stream, according to a press release. More than a thousand small business owners nationwide are currently host destinations within the RV Overnights network, including farms, animal rescues, amusement parks, museums, wineries, non-profits, and so much more. RV Overnights members who visit Hosting Locations do not pay for their first night stay directly; the program instead encourages its members to support the local small business with purchases while visiting. Many hosts offer unique products, tours, tastings, and more. Some locations are even non-profits that accept donations in exchange for a visit. Now, an exciting value-add program enables RV Overnights’ hosts to create a Camco marketplace on-site stocked with essential RVing kits and supplies for guests to purchase, making it especially convenient for them to replenish important items or fix small repairs. Hosts will be provided an exclusive order form with special rates from Camco, and product selections include everything from TST holding tank treatments, RhinoFLEX sewer hoses and sanitation gloves to Tastepure water filters and hoses, FasTen leveling blocks and Camco bath tissue. “This partnership with RV Overnights represents an exciting opportunity for Camco to connect with RV enthusiasts in a whole new way,” said Lisa Schoder, CMO at Camco. “For nearly 60 years, Camco has been dedicated to making the RV lifestyle more enjoyable, and we understand that today’s RVers value both quality products and unique experiences. “By providing RV Overnights hosts with our trusted essentials, we’re not only creating a convenient solution for travelers who may have forgotten crucial items, but we’re also empowering small business owners and property hosts with an additional revenue stream,” she added. “It’s a natural fit that strengthens the entire RV community — from the family starting their first adventure to the seasoned full-timers who know the value of having the right gear when you need it.” “At RV Overnights, we’re committed to supporting our hosts in every possible way, and helping them create real income opportunities is at the core of that commitment,” said Rob Case, founder of RV Overnights. “This partnership with Camco is a natural fit. It not only makes essential RV supplies more accessible for travelers right where they’re staying, but it also gives our hosts a new, simple way to boost profitability with each visit. “This is the first collaboration of its kind in our space, and a great example of how we’re leading the industry with practical, common-sense innovations that serve both our members and hosts,” he continued. “We care deeply about the impact we have on small-town America, and we’ll continue to think creatively about how to strengthen and grow this community we’re so proud to be part of.”

“Our fiscal third-quarter results reflect both the diverse dynamics of our business segments and the challenges posed by an uncertain economic environment,” said Michael Happe, President and Chief Executive Officer of Winnebago Industries. “While retail demand across the outdoor recreation sector remains soft, our dealer partners are navigating the market with prudence and agility. At Winnebago Industries, we continue to pursue discipline in every aspect of our operations. We are focused on protecting long-term profitability and sustaining strong customer relationships while aligning production closely with healthy field inventory turn targets. Most importantly, I want to thank our entire team for their dedication. Their commitment and resilience continue to power our progress and position us for future growth.” “Winnebago Industries’ 67-year history of innovation is reflected in the exciting new products and model year updates launching across our portfolio,” Happe continued. “In our Towable RV segment, we are leaning into the growing consumer emphasis on affordability by introducing a range of competitively priced products that are meeting the needs of today’s buyers. New travel trailer offerings such as the Grand Design Transcend Series and the Winnebago Thrive are designed to deliver exceptional value and quality, ensuring that more families can experience the RV lifestyle without compromising on comfort or reliability. In our Motorhome RV segment, Grand Design RV’s entrance into the motorized market with the expanding Lineage Series and new product entries from Newmar are gaining share momentum. In our Marine segment, our Chris-Craft and Barletta brands also continue to grow market share, helping to drive a double-digit increase in profitability.” Third Quarter Fiscal 2025 Results Net revenues were $775.1 million, a decrease of 1.4% compared to $786.0 million in the third quarter of last year, driven by a reduction in average selling price per unit related to product mix, partially offset by targeted price increases. Volume growth in the Towable RV and Marine segments was partially offset by volume reductions in the Motorhome RV segment, as dealers continue their efforts to right-size field inventories in this segment. Gross profit was $106.0 million, a decrease of 10.3% compared to $118.2 million in the third quarter of last year. Gross profit margin decreased 130 basis points in the quarter to 13.7%, primarily as a result of higher warranty experience and product mix, partially offset by operational efficiencies compared to prior year. Selling, general and administrative expenses were $70.3 million, an increase of 1.9% compared to $69.1 million in the third quarter of last year, primarily due to investment to support the growth of the new Grand Design motorhome business. Operating income was $30.2 million, a decrease of 30.7% compared to $43.5 million in the third quarter of last year. Net income was $17.6 million, compared to net income of $29.0 million in the third quarter of last year. Reported earnings per diluted share was $0.62, compared to reported earnings per diluted share of $0.96 in the third quarter of last year. Adjusted earnings per diluted share was $0.81, a decrease of 26.4% compared to adjusted earnings per diluted share of $1.10 in the third quarter of last year.

Portugal continues to rank as one of the continent’s most sought-after places for motorhome holidays, sitting comfortably behind Italy as the second most-visited country by European road-trippers. A steady stream of motorhome owners has added the country to their bucket lists, firmly establishing it as a linchpin for the classic road trip experience. We took advantage of the great weather to spend 20 days on the move, kicking off in Lisbon, meandering down the southwest coast via Costa Caparica and the Costa Vicentina, and wrapping up our journey in the Algarve, learning exactly how it feels to tour Portugal by motorhome. The European network of Motorhome Service Areas, Camping-Car Park, estimates that around 18 per cent of Europe’s three million motorhome owners will head to Portugal over the summer. The figures speak for themselves: stunning scenery, winding coastal roads, and a welcoming infrastructure have made the country a magnet for touring enthusiasts. Portugal now boasts 13,000 registered motorhomes, giving rise to a wealth of facilities that keep travellers comfortable while they roam. All of this adds up to a laid-back, flexible travel experience for anyone keen to follow their route.Motorhome tourism has undeniably taken off in Portugal, mirroring a broader European trend. Between the busy summer months of June and September, a steady stream of European visitors—predominantly from Spain, France, Italy, and Germany—choose to spend weeks meandering through the country, parked in hillside overlooks and beachfront lay-bys. On average, these motorhome explorers spend roughly €52 a day, a figure that comfortably covers pitch fees at the ever-improving service areas and the little extras that turn a journey into a holiday.Satisfied with layers of history and custard tarts, we locked the doors and rolled south, the sun dipping toward golden coastlines. Our first stop was Costa Caparica, a stretch of sweeping dunes and surf breaks where the Atlantic breathes freely. The boardwalk is lined with bright beach bars, and the sound of waves mixing with chatter felt like the world’s chillest soundtrack. We parked within earshot of the surf, kicked off our shoes, and waded in, the salt air already promising that we were just getting started.

“This is a new digital border system that will change requirements for British citizens travelling to the Schengen area,” said GOV.UK. “If you are travelling to a country in the Schengen area for a short stay using a UK passport, you will be required to register your biometric details, such as fingerprints and a photo, when you arrive.” The statement clarified that tourists do not need to take any action before arriving at the border and there is no cost for EES registration. “After it is fully implemented, EES registration will replace the current system of manually stamping passports when visitors arrive in the EU,” the statement explained. While each vehicle was processed and passed through security in 60 seconds under the previous system, experts claim the new format could take around six minutes per car.Motorists will be required to get out of their cars and register at the kiosks.The Port of Dover said it will eventually have 84 kiosks in place, ensuring tourists won’t have to sit in long queues to register.Doug Bannister, the port’s chief executive officer, said “facilities are all in place” and there “won’t be any delays”.“We’ve designed this all with the intention that we won’t have any queuing on the external road network close to the port,” he added.

Greece has officially joined a growing list of countries—including the US, UK, Netherlands, Luxembourg, Switzerland, and Czech Republic—that are implementing tough new travel bans targeting motorhomes. Driven by rising concerns over environmental impact, overcrowding, and unauthorized camping, these nations are introducing sweeping national prohibitions, regional overnight parking bans, and future sales restrictions that collectively mark a global clampdown on freeform motorhome travel. Greece’s Nationwide Motorhome Ban Greece’s move to implement a comprehensive national ban on motorhomes in public areas marks one of the most aggressive crackdowns to date. Under the new law, motorhomes and caravans are now prohibited from parking in public spaces such as beaches, parks, forests, and even standard car parks. The regulation also curtails private hosting, forbidding landowners from accommodating more than one motorhome on their property, regardless of consent. Offenders face steep penalties, including fines reaching €300 and the possibility of serving up to three months in jail. Officials cite environmental degradation, traffic congestion, and pressure on public services as key justifications for the ban. However, the law has sparked widespread concern among rural communities that rely heavily on camper tourism to sustain local economies, particularly during Greece’s long summer season.

New rules for motorhome and campervan owners come into effect next month, when travelling to the European Union. Motorists are warned that anyone who fails to comply with the new Entry/Exit System (EES) could be barred entry to the EU. The new border checks will affect those taking their vehicle to the EU from Sunday, October 12 for up to 90 days within a 180-day period. Further changes to EU law are set to be introduced next year. Mark Sheppard, senior trading manager at Safeguard, said: "Looking further ahead, UK citizens will also need to hold a valid European Travel Information and Authorisation System (ETIAS) travel authorisation, although this is not intended to be introduced until the last quarter of 2026." In anticipation of these changes, a Labour Party government spokesperson said: "While EES checks will be a significant change to the EU border, we are in constant and close dialogue with our European partners to try and minimise the impact on the British public. "While we have done everything we can to ensure the required infrastructure is in place, anyone who is planning a trip to the European mainland once these checks are introduced will still need to allow more time for their journey as the new EU systems bed in. " European countries using EES will phase in the new system over six months to minimise disruption, particularly during peak periods. This means ports may have varying requirements until April 2026, reports Birmingham Live. Travellers heading to Europe via the Port of Dover, Eurotunnel at Folkestone or Eurostar at St Pancras International will have the checks carried out at the border prior to their departure from the UK.
