Our History

Thank you for your interest in Colerain RV. We are based in Cincinnati, Ohio and are the premier provider of sales, service, parts and accessories in our industry. We look forward to doing business with you.

Colerain RV is a family operated business founded by Charles and Lolly Jung with Charlie's brother, Bob in 1968. Charlie was the only full time person with the new company. Lolly was raising five children, 3 of which, Chuck, Steve, and Sharon now work at Colerain RV, while Bob was still working a full time job elsewhere. The original location consisted of little more than a shack with an inventory of about 10 trailers. The original trailer brands were Mallard, Beeline and Thunderbird.

By 1970 business had grown to a point where Charlie needed help. Colerain RV hired 2 part time firemen to help with service and another employee to help with running titles. Also in 1970 we added Starcraft to our line-up, a long relationship we still enjoy today. Then in 1971 Charlie added 2 lines of folddowns, Venture & Lark. Sales rapidly increased to hit 92 units in 1972. Then came the oil embargo in 1973. RV sales were brought to a near stand still as families feared there would be no gasoline for cars to tow their campers. Many RV dealers and manufactures went out of business. Charlie and Lolly bought Bob's share in the company. Times were hard. Charlie and Lolly had to put a 2nd mortgage on their home to stay afloat.

After a year of collecting not one paycheck from the business, things started to grow again. Business increased steadily and Colerain RV began adding more lines of RVs. With the increase of both business and inventory, Colerain RV matched the demand with a growth of personnel adding 14 people to the workforce by 1991. Then the next set back occured in the form of The Gulf War. Again RV dealers and manufactures went out business. Colerain RV, now an established dealer, weathered the storm well. Since then, Colerain RV has continued to grow moving to our current location at Struble Road in 1996.

Colerain RV has recently expanded again completing construction on a new service building to better serve our family of customers. We now have over 60 employees, and have won numerous National Sales and Service Awards. More brands have been added over the years, and we invite you to browse our web site and our manufactures' web sites to explore these products and services. We would love for you to visit and remember you're always Welcome here.

Thank You

Charlie and Lolly Jung
