Brandon and Dana were great!!! We requested a last minute rental and they really came through for us. The camper was clean, well supplied, and super cozy. We had a 13 hour rain day on our trip, but loved every cozy minute we got to spend inside relaxing. They were VERY quick to respond to every message and question, and they made our rental a great experience!
