Joel is a great RV host. Very easy to communicate with and accommodating. He walked us through everything easily about the RV and made it easy for us to get on the road and on with our trip. We went to Hocking Hills with our four kids and this RV was perfect! The multiple beds, having all the seatbelts, the Kitchen space and bathroom, so many little things about this RV made traveling with kids easy. We also liked the outdoor kitchen it made cooking food outside over our campfire easy. We plan to rebook for our trip to Tennessee. Thanks!
