My son and I really enjoyed our recent trip in this radical van! Our favorite part was watching a movie at night with the heater keeping us toasty. Thankfully there are helpful videos on how to use the camper and I would recommend making sure to watch them before heading on your trip.

We had a wonderful stay in this beautiful RV! It was perfect for our snowboarding trip to Packwood. The RV was spacious with the bump-out, a comfortable master bed, and a nice-sized bathroom. We thoroughly enjoyed the fireplace, being able to stream a movie at night, and having our small pups with us which was a huge plus. Playing poker in the evenings was also a lot of fun.
Ben was an excellent host—very communicative, flexible, and quick to answer any questions.
The RV was clean, comfortable, and had everything we needed. We would happily stay again and highly recommend it!
