We are a family of four and the trailer was fantastic in accommodating our needs. Everything worked great and there was plenty of space for our over-packing. The hosts were great and flexible. When we got to our campsite, the lasts guests were still there and our hosts patiently waited while they packed up their stuff and left. Very nice people!

Paul was great. The RV was already set up with everything we needed. Fresh apples and food/water bowl for our dog. We will definitely rent this RV again
