Exploring the Area
Before packing up your Newtown camper rental and bidding the area goodbye, take some time to tour and appreciate even more of the region's attractions as who knows when you’ll be back? It wouldn’t be a bad idea to start off your tour at Yale University in New Haven. Founded in 1701, the Ivy League University remains an integral part of the community. Did you know that Yale, the third oldest university in the United States, is the largest employer in New Haven? The university visitor center is situated in John Pierpoint House, the oldest private home in the town. There you can organize for a guided tour of the stately gothic-style campus.

The RV was as described and comfortable for my group of 6. Our host, Gilbert, was extremely accommodating and helpful throughout the whole process. His communication streamlined our trip and made it an amazing experience. He even gave us a parting gift to thank us. 100% highly recommended! Thank you again Gilbert!

I had a large family gathering at my home over Thanksgiving and needed more bed space, as well as a possible gathering spot for guests with pet allergies, and Jeff's trailer fit the bill very nicely. And it worked out perfectly for us. I was able to bunk 6 guests comfortably in the trailer without anyone having to travel anywhere but my driveway. Jeff was great about bringing the trailer and setting it up and then taking it away again. We had our first cold snap of the season, so the heating system was very welcome and warmed things up very nicely and quickly at bedtime. My young adult nieces loved the feeling of doing a sleepover in their shared double bunk beds, and my senior sisters appreciated the private queen space.
All in all, Jeff's trailer helped to make this Thanksgiving a particularly wonderful and memorable one. I definitely would recommend him!
