Adam was a great host. Communication was easy and responses were quick coming. Adam was very thorough is explaining the amenities, setup and answering any questions to make are trip very enjoyable. The camper is well maintained and clean. The provided anti-sway hitch made smooth pulling of the camper. Would not hesitate to rent this camper from Adam again in the future.

Excellent experience from beginning to end. The site is very thorough and makes it easy to rent an RV. Our host Hanna was absolutely awesome with quick communication throughout the process, even when asked questions before we booked her perfect camper, and her support during our trip was most appreciated. Heat/AC, full bath w/ shower are treats we aren't used to at camp. The camper pulls very well and with electric brakes you forget it's following sometimes. It's very well appointed with everything you need to set up a great camp. We would and most likely will rent from Hanna again if still available.
