Michael was so accommodating. He delivered and set up his camper for our dry dock camping event. This event takes place on rural meadow property. A number of family members reunion here every year with their campers. We absolutely enjoyed the convenience of participating along side the other RV’s without the hassle of owning and transporting our own. The camper was clean and well appointed for a stress free weekend. Thank you Michael😎
