Daniel was an excellent host, Rig was as advertised, communication was excellent, drop off and pick came off without a hitch. No pun intended. We highly recommend.

What an amazing time we had! Michael was excellent with communication and my many questions, being our first time staying in a trailer. Beyond that, he was punctual with both drop off and pick up, very kind and thorough when explaining how everything worked/where it was, and patient (again) with our many questions. The camper was immaculate and anything we possibly could have needed was there for us including towels, bedsheets, pots/pans, paper products, etc. He thought of everything. We would HIGHLY recommend this trailer and cannot wait to rent again from Michael. Exceeded our expectations in every way!

The size of the camper is great for us. The pickup process was super easy and everyone was pleasant to work with.
