Easy to tow. Very smooth. Everything worked and functioned well and included all the supplies and accessories to set up and clean up after the trip.

Great camper, great service! We asked Dylan to deliver the camper to Summit Point Motorsports Park for a Thursday evening dropoff at the Shenandoah paddock, when the front gate opened at 6:00. He got it all set up very quickly and we enjoyed it until he picked it up about 4:30 on Sunday afternoon.
