AMAZING trailer. Best layout ever for a couple with small kids. My FAVORITE thing was the bunk bed room. The kids were so happy in it. We only had 2 kids so they each had a side...slept on bottom and had their stuff on top. They actually wanted to go to bed at night (which was awesome so then we adults could get a little relaxation outside around the fire. BC of covid, I liked that the couch and seating area were easy to clean/disinfect and not just fabric. They had liners on the bed...everything was so clean that it made my life a little less hectic with disinfecting. Everything about the trailer was just so practical for family use...big enough fridge...wide open sink. And it has these big windows you can see out of in the living room...and one in the adult room...and the ceiling is high enough to where you can walk around and not feel cramped.So overall I would say the trailer was a 10+...but im also very picky...so here are my very few cons (or even some are more comments for the host):
- missing broom - thank goodness we had brought one though!
- Hard bed, but I wouldnt say its a problem...I only wish I would have brought an extra blanket or two to put underneath...a thick featherdown quilt would have made it perfect.
- Extra Condiments Not necessary - there were a lot of spices and other condiments (honey, half eaten Nutella, etc). They were in the way so I immediately just put it all up in a top shelf....only I was a little hesitant to even touch them with obvioulsy the thought of covid on my mind. Due to current environment, IM not sure I would keep stuff like that in the trailer. Or if it is in there, it should be brand new and never opened. The stuff that was half used kind of grossed me out. Same for soap bottles and other items... should be filled all the way to top.
- Ran out of power/water/propane - Ok so this most likely was user error (i.e. our fault!)...but I would say we are pretty experienced trailer users (actually owners but someone was borrowing ours which is why we had to rent!). We could NOT figure out why we were going through propane so quick. Another issue was power - luckily we brought 2 generators instead of 1. I think we are just used to a trailer that harnesses solar power, which then lets you charge your electronics, etc more easily without always using energy from generator. It can be a game changer. And as for water....I couldn't quite understand this either. Our gray tank filled up way before the black one. I am the QUEEN of drycamping...in fact, we never go to spots where you hook up so Im not used to using a lot of water. My husband and I did not shower once...and only showered our 2 and 5 year old 2 times being super careful with water. No dishes were ever washed inside, but for some reason, our gray tank filled up before the black. Normally it is the opposite way around in the 20+ times we have camped using our other trailer. So maybe the water tank was small or perhaps not filled up all the way ooooorrrrr my 2 year old might have been playing with the water when I wasnt lookin!!! But it really didnt matter bc it all happened on the day we were leaving so it wasnt a bummer.
- There was a little box next to fridge on side of paneling that kept beeping on last day (and my husband had already left so I couldnt ask him to help me!). I could not figure out how to turn it off or why it was beeping (was either a carbon monoxide or propane indicator). Either way, I would highly recommend the owners give their renters training in what they should do when this beeping goes off in case it happens during their stay. I'm pretty sure it was from lack of propane and not carbon monoxide...only at that point we weren't using the propane anymore so it would have been nice to know how to turn it off!Sorry...I know I spent a lot of time on the cons, but overall....the pros BY FAR outweighed the cons...I just cant thank our wonderful hosts enough!! We had rented an RV about a month ago which still gives me nightmares to this day...and this RV is just sooooo much better, not even comparable to the other one we rented. I would rent from this couple all the time if we needed to rent a trailer again! They are absolute angels during this crisis and their trailer is a little slice of heaven on earth. Thanks so much to the hosts for allowing us such an amazing wonderful trip!!!!!
