My wife and I really enjoyed our 2.5 week trip in Nathan's RV. It was perfect for our trip and offered great versatility and comfort for us and our pup. The RV size is excellent making it easy to drive and a breeze to hook/unhook from utilities at any campsites. We did a bit of boon docking on our trip and got about 3 days at a time of normal living before we needed to top of water and such. Nathan stocked the RV with EVERYTHING we'd need for our trip and we couldn't have been happier. Items like toilet paper, sheets, towels, firewood, snacks, and anything else you can thing of was taken care of! Any issues we had, Nathan was quick to help answer and resolve. We would rent this RV again in a heartbeat!

Carlos was a great host he walked us through everything and showed us how everything works on pickup. He told us to reach out if we had any issues and when we did run into some issues he did his best to fix it over the phone. He was super flexible on pick up and drop off and helped us have the best rental we could. The rv itself is really nice and modern and was easy to drive even for someone who never drove a rv this size before. Carlos is a great host and I would recommend anyone to rent his rv.
