The camper van was exactly as advertised, was very well equipped, clean and very attractive. Vee gave us a very thorough orientation and later texted us to make sure everything was going OK. It was. Apparently, the stepstool that is usually with the van was not there this time and it would have been very nice to have a step up because the van is very high. We would certainly rent this van from Vee again.

April and Derick made our trip stress free! The RV was set up for us when we arrived and communication with the hosts was almost immediate. The RV itself was very nice with a lot of great features! Would highly recommend!
