This was our first RV rental experience. The RV was exactly as advertised. The host was very informative and responded to questions immediately. It was a great first experience and we will do it again.

Loved our trip in Marc and Tiffany’s camper! They were awesome, great communication. We had the camper delivered to our campsite; it was all set up and ready for us when we arrived. It was much better than renting one of the glamping / little houses at the campground, we will 100% be going this route in the future!

The host (Minnow-Campers) was excellent (I'd give the trailer 4 stars, but the host 5 stars). He offered to save me a few bucks by delivering the camper (affects insurance), so I said yes. No hauling, set up, or clean up! I rented a 2000-lb camper (Nucamp) because that's the max load my hybrid Maverick is equipped to pull (I was thinking of buying one). While the Nucamp slept two people comfortably, and even has a nice toilet, microwave, fridge, and other amenities, it certainly is a small camper! I think I need a bigger vehicle! The AC unit was also VERY loud, but we found we didn't really need it on cool North Georgia nights. I had trouble connecting my laptop to the TV, too. If you have a small vehicle, and are alone or a couple with no kids, looking for somewhere to sleep in the spring or fall, this will work. The Nucamp seems to be well-designed, for something this small. It worked out well for me and my grandson to enjoy a long weekend together. We also really enjoyed the Yonah Campground in Cleveland GA.
