Whether looking to purchase or rent, Giant Recreation World offers a wide selection of top-of-the-line RVs, an unmatched warranty—and even a VIP camping club to help you embrace a new lifestyle and community.

With summer fast approaching, folks are eagerly anticipating their seasonal getaways for some much-needed R&R. But instead of hitting the beach this year, many folks are instead opting for a new adventure—hitting the open road behind the wheel of an RV to embark on a one-of-a-kind journey that the entire family will enjoy. 

For those looking to enter into the RV lifestyle, they can get all the guidance and expertise they need right here in Central Florida at Giant Recreation World. A family-owned and –operated business since 1976, the company spans three locations in Winter Garden, Ormond Beach and Palm Bay. Combining decades of experience with a highly skilled team allow customers to rest assured that they’re dealing with industry experts, no matter which location they are visiting. 

One of the biggest benefits of dealing with Giant Recreation World is that the company is fully transparent and there are never any hidden costs. Too often, a customer will head to a bigger dealer who appears to have better pricing only to find out the cost is significantly more when all is said and done. That’s because these bigger dealerships will add fees for delivery, cleaning and more. Ultimately, customers can wind up paying thousands more then original sticker price. 

Also, at some RV dealerships, there is a limited selection of products. However, at Giant Recreation World, customers can expect to find a wide range of RV options to choose from, in both brand and class. In addition, the company also houses its own service department to handle repairs as well as routine maintenance, including a yearly checkup to produce a detailed report that allows owners to fetch top dollar for their trade when the time comes. 

It’s all part of the dedicated approach that has solidified Giant Recreation World’s reputation for excellence over the past four decades. 

“We are a recreational dealership. We have RVs—the difference here is we are a destination dealership, meaning people will take a trip just to get to us,” says Larry McNamara, president and CEO. “When customers come in, they get a really warm feeling. They feel like they’re part of the family.”

And whether you’re buying your first RV or have been enjoying one for some time now, your relationship with Giant Recreation World extends well beyond the initial purchase. With an unmatched warranty, special perks and more, customers are fully enveloped into the RV lifestyle. Here, we take a look at some of the other ways the company stands out in a crowded field.

A Lifetime Warranty

When you talk about Giant Recreation World, perhaps one of its biggest differentiators from its competition is the lifetime warranty offered to customers. For those who purchase a new RV, the warranty covers things not covered by the manufacturer, such as suspension, brake and water system components. This includes discounts on the parts, too. 

“It really does separate us apart from other dealers as we are Central Florida’s only dealership to offer a lifetime warranty where all the needs are taken care of by certified technicians,” McNamara says. “It’s peace of mind.”

The Benefits of Renting

Of course, not everyone is looking to purchase an RV—at least, not right away. And for them, Giant Recreation World offers and expert rental division. 

“A lot of dealerships don’t offer rentals at all. We do it for very specific reasons,” says McNamara.

Rentals also set the company apart from most others. That reason is because many people have to dive right in when entering the RV world, which is not always ideal for newcomers. With a rental, they can test the waters before making a big splash. The rental fleet is also brand-new, with Giant Recreation World currently renting 2025 models so folks can get an understanding of what the new features are, how they drive, etc.

The professionals at Giant Recreation World will deliver an RV and have it ready to go for renters. When their vacation is finished, the team will pick it up, too. Fort Wilderness Camping at Walt Disney World is a popular rental location, but they offer this service across the state. 

And a bonus, the company also offers a “Try Before You Buy” program. If customers choose to make a purchase, the rental fee is applied to the cost.

Golf Cart Division

If you’re talking RVs, then a golf cart conversation is not far behind. Giant Recreation World’s golf cart division is located in Winter Garden across the street from one of its RV dealerships. It has its own showroom and sales department, and the location also offers parts, repair and maintenance. 

“With golf carts being so closely tied to the RV world,” McNamara says, “you’ve got to have a golf cart! Once you park your RV, everyone likes to ride around the RV park in their golf cart.”

The company features a rental division for golf carts, too, much in the same way it rents RVs.

“And it’s the same as with our RVs. There are no logos splashed everywhere. It doesn’t say ‘rent me’ in huge letters. You look like everybody else, not like you’re in a rental,” says McNamara. 

VIP Camping Club

For only $50 a year (which includes parts and service discounts), customers who purchase an RV from Giant Recreation World can join the VIP Camping Club. There are monthly campouts—sometimes two—and its’ an opportunity to hang out, learn from other RV owners and make friends. 

“This is the greatest ‘why buy’ the company has,” McNamara offers. “What ends up happening is you want to get into the RV world. You buy an RV, but you don’t know what to do with it. That’s when you join the VIP Camping Club.

“You pull into a campground and the next thing you know, you’re having shrimp with new people that turn into lifelong friends. The essence of the RV lifestyle lies in its community. It’s fun, stress-free and gives you freedom.”

On the Airwaves

The VIP Camping Club isn’t the only way Giant Recreation World tries to familiarize its customers with the world of RVs. They can listen to Larry McNamara’s The RV Hour podcast, which airs every Sunday from 10-11 a.m. on Florida Man Radio 105.5, and also Spotify and YouTube. The show encourages and motivates people to join the RV lifestyle and experience comfort and adventure at the same time. 

“Whether you are an avid traveler, a novice newcomer or just starting to dive into the RV community, you can learn a lot by listening an hour a day on Sunday mornings. We cover a wide array of topics, tips, tricks and advice. The show packs a lot of punch in an hour,” McNamara says. 

For those considering the RV life, stopping in at one of Giant Recreation World’s three locations is the first step. The experienced sales team doesn’t pressure customers, but they will ensure they feel comfortable while introducing them to all the RV world has to offer. 

It’s just further evidence of the company’s focus on making lasting connections. 

“We often hear from our customers that the RV lifestyle is all about reconnecting with family and revisiting a time where wholesome fun is at the forefront of their agendas,” McNamara explains. “And as a local business, we are proud to help support families in creating those memories and build strong family values.”
