While I did deal with a bit of inital headache in renting a unit here, Cathy & Jim in Lake Forest got everything sorted out quickly and ironed all the issues out. I can say with confidence that their customer service is legitimate, and with good correspondence, at least from my perspective as a brand new customer.
We are delighted to hear that Cathy & Jim were able to quickly resolve any initial issues you experienced. Thank you for sharing your feedback with us Bear.
