Owned by Donna Taylor, Edward River Caravan Hire is one of three runners-up in the Camplify’s Owner of the Year Awards.
Camplify is Australia's leading RV sharing marketplace, connecting you with real RV owners across Australia.
Ms Taylor said being a runner-up is a huge honour, considering the size and reach of the Camplify community.
“There are more than 6000 Camplify owners, and of those, 32 were shortlisted for the Owner of the Year awards,” she said.
“And while we didn’t take out the top gong, we have been recognised as one of the top four owners/businesses in Australia.
“This is massive considering our demographic - a small country town, four hours from our closest major city.
“This recognition is being shared around Australia, boosting our tourism credibility and visibility.
“We’ve also just acquired another van, which brings our total fleet size to ten - this fleet size is usually seen in towns with ten times the size of Deni’s.”
Camplify presents four awards each year - Owner of the Year, New Owner of the Year, Legend Owner of the Year and Listing of the Year.
Owner of the Year recognises the owner who “defines excellence on Camplify” based on fleet growth, business performance and customer reviews.
“The 2025 Camplify Owner Awards celebrate the people who make our community brilliant – and this year's runner-up for Owner of the Year proves you don't need to be in a big city to build something extraordinary,” Camplify said.
“Donna runs a fleet of 10 caravans from Deniliquin, a country NSW town of just 8000 people.
“She's completed over 400 hires, owns every van outright, and has become so well-known locally that tradies call her with caravan questions.
“The town knows her as ‘the crazy caravan lady’. She wouldn't have it any other way.”
