Matt’s trailer was practically brand new! It had all the amenities and the delivery and setup were seamless and smooth. Easiest camping trip I’ve ever done, lol! And Matt’s communication was so responsive and helpful. No question went unanswered for more than a couple minutes. 2 thumbs up! Great experience!

Danny is your man for renting an RV. He delivered our RV to a remote cattle ranch outside Bakersfield on a dirt road perfectly on time. He set up the RV and gave us good instructions on how everything works and left his cell if we had any issues. I would highly recommend him for any RV rentals for that area.

We had a wonderful time renting this camper van from Gus. He was a great host, very communicative and a pleasure to work with. The van was in great shape upon pickup, and Gus gave us a thorough walkthrough on how everything worked. There was an app used to control all the functionality of the van, which made things quite easy. Unfortunately, when we got to our camping site, we were unable to get the generator to work. Gus was communicative over the phone the whole time and walked us through several things to try to get it running, but we were unsuccessful. Fortunately, because of the solar panels, everything else in the van worked fine without it, and we were able to run the AC by just turning the van on and running the primary vehicle AC. Whatever the issue was, it resolved itself, as when we returned the van to Gus the generator fired up again. He made it right by reimbursing us for gas used to run the vehicle. Overall, we had a great experience with the van and really enjoyed renting from Gus and his wife. Would rent again. Thanks Gus!

We had such a wonderful experience renting this RV! From the very beginning, our hosts were incredibly accommodating and thoughtful. They went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable — even purchasing a mirror specifically for me to use, and generously bringing along their personal Keurig so we could enjoy fresh coffee while camping. When we had a power issue at our campsite, they didn’t hesitate to drive all the way back to bring us gas for the generator, making sure we had what we needed to get through until the problem was fixed. Their kindness and attentiveness truly made a difference. The RV itself was spotless, cozy, and well-equipped. The AC kept us cool and comfortable the entire time, even with temperatures reaching 98 degrees. It was the perfect home-away-from-home, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Highly recommend renting from these amazing folks — they truly care and it shows!

Oh my goodness where do I start. So not only was it super easy to communicate with the hosts, but they were unbelievably accommodating. I had another rental booked for May that I had booked in December and that other host canceled on me 12 hours before I was supposed to pick up. These guys were able to answer all my questions and accommodate my needs with less than 12 hours notice. The particular trailer I rented from them was PERFECT for my needs. While I didn’t have plug in power at my particular camp ground the trailer has a solar panel that would charge all day and gave me enough energy to run all the lights, the water pump, and charge my phone and my watch every night. The slide out on the trailer gave me so much extra room in there as well. Towing a 24 foot trailer can be intimidating for some but this could not have been easier to tow. The hosts also let me know they have a fleet of rentals so if this particular one was unavailable they have other options to choose from. They were incredibly helpful with all my questions and answered everything so fast. To be able to request to book the night before and pick it up in the morning SAVED my trip. 10/10 will 100% rent from them again.
