#1 RV Dealer in New York
For over three generations the Wilkins RV motto has been: "We offer a huge selection of top-quality RVs at the right price." Wilkins RV is a proud dealer of new and pre-owned motor homes, travel trailers, fifth wheels, toy haulers, and tent campers from top names like Heartland, Forest River, Grand Design, Newmar, Alliance, Coachmen, and more.
In 1936 C Wilkins Used Cars was founded as an auto detailing shop by Charles (Charlie) Wilkins. Originally, located in Hornell, New York, Charlie started selling RVs in the 1950's. Charlie's son, Ron Wilkins, took over the business in the early 1960s, changing the name to Wilkins RV, and began selling iconic RV brands like Coachmen, Shasta, and Mallard. In 2004, Ron Wilkins sold the business to his son, Brian Wilkins. Quickly outgrowing the facility in Hornell, New York, Wilkins RV built a new state- of- the art facility and moved the dealership to its current location in Bath, New York. The 50,000 square foot facility sits on twenty-five acres and includes twenty service bays, a 14,000 square foot air-conditioned showroom, over 3,000 square feet of parts and accessories, and eight campground style hook-ups in case you are looking to spend the night in your RV. In August of 2011, Wilkins RV opened a second location, in Churchville, New York. This location was expanded in the Spring of 2016 to its current 40,000 square-foot facilities, consisting of sixteen service bays, a 12,000 square-foot showroom, 2,000 square feet of parts and accessories, and six campground-style hook-ups for overnight stays.
In January 2017, Brian Wilkins acquired Ballantyne RV in Victor, NY, and Caps and Campers in Cicero, NY to expand Wilkins RV to four locations. This expansion allowed Wilkins RV to better serve Western NY and now the Syracuse, NY area!
