Makayla was a great and flexible host and was very helpful throughout the process. The vehicle was well maintained and the features of the vehicle were really helpful with the trip. There was also air freshener in the vehicle and microfiber cloths to wipe down any surfaces if you need to. The vehicle was very clean, almost like driving a new car. I was very satisfied with my trip and experience and would definitely book with Makayla again!

I love it! The car is spotless and smells wonderful. The owner is fantastic—friendly and very kind. During the three-hour drive, I noticed how comfortable the seat is, which makes long drives much easier. I will definitely rent her car again. Thank you.

We really enjoyed this car! It was so much fun driving through the mountains with the top down, and it made our trip even more memorable. Unfortunately, the car developed a mechanical issue during our rental and had to be towed. While that was definitely unexpected, Todd was incredibly kind, responsive, and understanding throughout the entire situation. He communicated with us every step of the way and even told us not to worry about refueling because of the inconvenience. You can tell he genuinely cares about his guests. Mechanical issues can happen with any vehicle, and I really appreciated how professionally everything was handled. I’d definitely rent from Todd again.
