LexGo made our trip SO EASY! Unfortunately I spent too much time trying to rent with another RV company through Airbnb, which kept failing to respond in a 24hr period. LexGo got with me IMMEDIATELY and hashed out all the details via text and call. Everything was set up and ready to go when we arrived and we had fabulous support for anything we needed during our stay. We even got a surprise camper upgrade, free of charge. I would highly recommend them for your RV camping experience.

LexGo Rentals is the way to go! Everything was exactly as advertised, Michael is super responsive to questions, and very helpful if any extras are needed. I will definitely be going thru them again next year!
