"Rentalo works well & did help to take some of the stress away from looking, as property owners/managers were submitting info back to me! The area I was looking in though (Lake Lure) had limited properties remaining & most of the submittals I received through rentalo were from outside the immediate area. I did not make my reservation from a rentalo contact BUT I did find a location through rentalo that I will certainly visit at a later date that is in Rutherford County (The Hawks Nest cabin in Golden Valley). Thanks for the help! I will use rentalo again."Lynn Bryan
": I just wanted to let you know that today, April 25, I changed my request for information for a rental in January 2005, and received an immediate response by telephone for a house to rent from Janice Warren, one of your owners. It was just what we were looking for, and have confirmed the rental and sent out our deposit check. Thank you for helping us find the property we were looking for, and with such quick results. Sincerely, "Marsha Hubbs
"I used your service for the first time to find vacation properties for a last minute trip to Florida (of course, during the busy season). I was able to obtain a wonderful location from one of the proprioters that responded to my request. This was so easy and a time saving process. Thankyou so very much for your service and I will definitly use it in the future and highly recommend it to all of my family and friends"Vicki Mathias
