We booked this camper so we could have a place to keep our elderly cat while we visited with family. It ended up being an excellent spot to which I am hoping to return!

We had an absolutely fantastic time staying in this camper! From start to finish, everything was incredibly easy to use and well-organized. The camper was pristine, super clean, and had plenty of space, making it feel both comfortable and roomy. It was the perfect home base for our trip, with all the amenities we needed and then some. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a hassle-free, enjoyable camping experience.

Very nice clean camper placed in a peaceful and large lot. Plenty of space for children or pets to run around. Camper was stocked with most of the utensils and dishes needed for a family to enjoy some meals. I suggested some baking pans. Host was terrific! Great quick communication. Hope to rent unit again from Julia
