We had a great experience renting from Jon. Since it was our first time doing this, we were nervous, but Jon explained everything perfectly and was easily readable for questions throughout the rental period. We'll definitely do this again.

Nice van and nice people to rent from. Interior is nice and well furnished, drove well. Bed is a little more complicated to set up than I expected, but would have been fine if I had service to review the video.
