They made it so easy for us to enjoy our family camp. Accommodating, helpful, and thoughtful. Would definitely go with them again!.

This is our second time renting from Carey. Her trailer couldn't be more perfect for us and she is very pleasant to work with. We are seniors and last year had a recommendation about the stairs going in/out of the trailer knowing that we would still rent it as it was and we were pleasantly surprised to see them replaced this year. Both times it has been clean, setup (even a cold fridge) and ready for us when we arrived along with snacks, coffee, etc. We will definitely be renting it again next year.
