This was my first time doing an RV rental and it exceeded my expectations! I didn’t have to lift a finger to make my dreams come true this past week. From the moment, I reached out on Outdoorsy, Bill was responsive answering my many questions. The camper was delivered, set up, and I was given a tour and made sure I felt comfortable before taking the keys. It was well stocked with dishes and cooking supplies, bedding and towels and everything was beautifully clean. They even had the refrigerator already cooled down for me!! Absolutely perfect first experience!! Thank you, Bill!
