I'd rent from Jeff any day. He is a fantastic communicator - if anything had gone awry during our trip, I have full confidence that he would have handled it within minutes. Our stay was comfortable and clean, and the layout of this camper was phenomenal for 4 adults to stay in (with a lot of gear). Jeff planned with me to make sure that my group (of 4 hunters) was comfortable, but that we weren't creating extra work for him over the course of our rental. Setup was a breeze, camper pulled easily, and we stayed nice and toasty on a chilly weekend with electric and a couple of small space heaters. Jeff kindly walked through setup with me, made sure all the equipment I'd need for setup was in place, and provided a ratchet as a backup to manually adjust the electric jack with the potential for weather-related issues. Overall, I felt super confident in both the rig and getting a response from the host if I needed anything or had questions, and look forward to renting with Jeff next year!

We had a great time touring all around Missouri’s state parks and Branson in Greg’s Solis, Poppy. This unit is the perfect size for chilling in at a campground but also parking in a regular parking spot at a restaurant. The van was well equipped and Greg was a helpful, professional and all around great host. We can’t wait for our next roadtrip….we’ll be back!
