I booked with Alex and his wife for a trip with me and my 10-year-old son, and I could not be happier!! He was always quick to respond and so extremely helpful. I made a huge mistake and actually came a day early and there was no fuss from Alex, he went out of his way to accommodate us and I was not expecting that, we figured oh well, we will have to rent a hotel for a night....he was a life saver! Not just his professionalism, but how well the RV was maintained, it had everything we needed and was so clean and I am a clean freak so that says a lot. I will definitely be booking with him again, what a wonderful RV, experience, and we made some amazing memories. Thank you to Alex and his family!

Matt was a great host! He brought us a Keurig machine plus bottles of water so we could have coffee in the morning. All the amenities included were so convenient - plates, pots, pans, utensils, toilet paper, towels, etc. We could not have asked for more!
