Kaylee and Ben have a great van and were super easy to communicate with. Pickup and drop off was seamless and we would definitely rent again.

Hands down the nicest camper I’ve rented. The tanks are huge allowing for a nice hot shower. The owner is incredibly nice. The camper was completely setup and equipped with blankets, pillows, heat hot water, etc… I would highly recommend renting from this owner.

It was only an overnight stay and a tiny, insy, winsy look into the nomadic lifestyle, and I loved it. Definitely going to do it *screams in excitement and good fear*
