"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 was hoping my family could get away from the hurricane problems for the weekend. Unfortunately, work schedules did not permit. However, I will definately use this site again and recommend it to everyone I know. I had 7 offers in a matter of hours! Thank you so much for a great service.
