Our Hosts, David and Grace were always responsive to any questions in the booking process. Their RV has everything one needs to explore dry/wet camping! This model is plush and powerful with a very practical layout- allows me to pull aside a Highway 1 natural attraction and just slide open the side door to enjoy it. Would definitely meet them again in San Jose, and rent from them!

Easy pick up and drop off and the rig was perfect. It drove very smooth and was very comfortable for the two of us and our dog. Cant wait to rent it again!

Had a great time. RV drove very well. The propane heater was a godsend as we had some cold mornings. Awesome experience overall.

Dave was very easy to work with and was flexible on the drop off time. The van itself was clean and was great to drive on the road. It accommodated two adults, our daughter and a dog. It was easy to park while traveling up the coast to Mendocino.

Overall, the experience was really good. The awning was non-functional, had an issue with the parking brake, and Outdoorsy failed to let the owner know that we wanted extras like camping chairs and the linen package. Dave and his family went out of their way to get us the linens and chairs, just incredibly nice of them. There's also a number of kitchen items that are included, so definitely inquire about what is included before you start packing things. The RV comes with DVD player (although not the most intuitive system), and some kind of inputs, but I recommend keeping it simple and just bringing DVDs. Movie night in the woods... amazing. Also tried like heck to get the fridge to run on propane (to conserve battery), but to no avail. Used the (included) leveling blocks and everything, but the RV needs to be *perfectly* level in order to work. We had it within 1 degree of level, and it still didn't work. Dave was also incredibly flexible on pickup and return times (we were even late getting back), and was just so thoughtful. The RV handles well on country roads as well as the interstate highways. It's comfortable and a pleasure to drive. We had such a blast in this Winnebago... you will too!

Dave was available from the moment we booked the trip which was weeks in advance. The communication with Dave during booking, pre-pick-up, at pickup, and finally during return, was stellar. Can't emphasize enough how he made sure we knew every aspect of the management of the van, included a printed manual on top of the walkthru.
Dave is a great host and someone who really cares to share the experience he has had with his van. The van itself is extremely well taken care of, powerful enough and a real joy to drive around with or without experience driving big vehicles.
The van sleeps 3 people, in our case we had our 15 year old son sleeping very comfortably in the 3rd spot behind the driver seat.
I would definitely book from Dave again.

The camper was great exactly as described. I am a newbie to the RV world and everything was easy and clear.

We had a wonderful time camping in the van. Everything was as described and Dave was very easy to communicate with. The van drove like a champ. We were very comfortable staying in the van as a couple with our large dog.

Start-to-finish, Dave was a great host. He provided a thorough walk around of the RV, which made our entire trip trouble free. He even check with us throughout our travels to make certain that everything was going well. The coach was given to us in spotless condition, and was well stocked with everything we would need to make for a great trip. We visited Sedona and the South Rim of the Grand Canyon in December. It was cold, as expected, but we were warm and comfy in our home-on-wheels.
