Shout out to Eddie at Primo RV for helping make our 1st camping trip this year a success. We had a water leak and he actually came to our campground to fix it. Otherwise we would have been dropping our RV off at Primo and heading home Saturday morning. Disaster averted and we spent a fabulous long weekend camping.
