This trip was the dream of a lifetime!! Henry was the perfect camper companion for our trip! Everything was thoughtfully designed and equipped, our trip was so comfortable.

I rented Henry for my 51st birthday to take a trip with my 20 and 17 year old boys to explore the Kenai Peninsula and fish Sockeye on the Kenai River. Henry was a dream and he took great care of us through our adventures! He is perfectly set up for comfort, cooking, and having a great time while exploring AK. Definitely would love to do it again. Thanks again Kevin for sharing your beloved Henry!
