Hi,
Our expirience....
We entered Canada coming from Europe, by plane, in Calgary, last year ...
Made a nice trip from Calgary, Banff, Lake Louise, Jasper .... Vancouver ...
It took us, going from Vancouver to Seattle, at the border to the US, 45 minutes, not counting the time waiting in line, that was at 8 am not that long.
We had to park the rental at a separate parking, going inside, waiting to be examined...
All paperwork was oké, all passports etc, etc ...
And still the question were do you stay .... in a MH .... gave some confusion, so I said finally, in the MH at a campsite, direction of Yellowstone.
That wasn't enough, I had to give a physical address ... and it didn't matter it was too far to drive in one day
So I only know, there was a KOA west of Yellowstone Park, and gave that address .... that was alright, the only last question was, in what State that town was .... Grrrrrr ... how the hack some European from the Netherlands would know that ... then a supervisor stepped in and told the border off. ... you can figure that out yourself .... for the record, they never inspected the RV or asked for food or other items ...
At the Hoover Dam we were inspected more thoroughly, they entered the MH and we had to open several closets ...
Going back to Canada, since our flight was from Calgary again and we had to return the MH ... standing in lane took 10 minutes, crossing the actual border 2 minutes ...
