We had a great experience renting this RV from Dave during spring break. Dave was incredibly responsive and easy to work with throughout the entire process, showing a high level of flexibility with our schedule. The RV itself was in great condition and we encountered no issues during our trip. Dave also did a thorough job explaining all the features and systems before we set off, which made us feel very confident. I highly recommend renting from him for a stress-free vacation!

We loved our trip on Fiona’s camper van! It was perfectly cozy and well laid out for cooking and hanging - even in the cold temps we had during our trip. Best of all, it was the perfect place for our proposal!
