What a great experience! The trailer was setup for us and is decked out with everything you could need for a great stay. It was super hot during our stay, but the A/C made it very comfortable to sleep at night. It was like having a private cabin (it even has a front porch!) dropped right next to the lake for our family of 4. The hosts were great to communicate with and answered our questions quickly. Highly recommended!

Five stars for incredible service! Candy’s top priority is clearly safety and customer care. She took the time to evaluate my vehicle setup, realized it wasn't a suitable match for the trailer, and generously handled the towing herself. She has a wealth of experience, is exceptionally patient, and is wonderful to work with. Thank you, Candy!
