Relocation
Idaho has become the spot to be. With all of the shutdowns around the country ranging from Washington, Oregon, California, Colorado, and Arizona, as well as North Dakota; Idaho has benefited from extremely low cases of COVID-19. Not only is it a safe place to live, but it's also a great place to raise a family or retire. I should also mention the cost of living is far lower than in other parts of the country. We have been able to stay open throughout the shutdowns and support our customers and employees in the best ways we know how. If you've ever dreamed of moving to the northwest, now may be the time to turn a dream into reality!
About Our Dealership
Bretz RV & Marine opened for business in Missoula, Montana, in 1967. Until then, Frank and Vi Bretz had been operating a service station and renting U-Hauls in central Missoula. A search for a new camping trailer ended up turning into a new business opportunity. Not only did the Bretz family get a new camper, they decided to get into the business of selling and renting small travel trailers.
Today Bretz RV & Marine is still a family-owned and operated business with five dealerships across Montana and Idaho. We are fortunate to have grown from just over 100 employees to nearly 400 employees in the last five years. We do all we can to offer our teams an excellent place to work and advance in our company. We start by finding great people with high energy and then find the best place for them to be successful in our dealerships.
Throughout the year, you will see Bretz RV & Marine sponsoring events from local school functions to veterans associations, Toys-4-Tots, Make-A-Wish, and many more. We feel it's important to contribute to the communities in which we do business.
