About Peter & Tracy Hyland

We are garden-growing, outdoor recreation enthusiasts who spent two years traveling overland and working in Australia back in 2008/09 with our (then) young children. We love cooking and enjoy sharing our home-grown produce when it's in season. We also like to build things and make already built things better. Most of all though, we enjoy having adventures in beautiful places, like the canyon country of Utah, high mountains anywhere and the wilds of the Pacific Northwest. Since moving to Portland, Oregon in 2010, we have embraced this wonderfully unique city and state. Please give us the privilege of hosting you. Cheers, Tracy & Peter

We had a great time exploring Oregon in Peter & Tracy's camper van. Peter was so helpful and informative prior to our departure which set the tone for a wonderful experience. The van was equipped with just about everything we needed except things that we knew we would be going without...biggest item we missed....ICE (no little freezer). Other than that, my husband loved how this van drove and handled on the road and the bed was nice a cozy. All the little features added to this RV made it a joy. With no generator and AC we were a bit worried going in to 100 degree weather but every evening cooled off beautifully. Overall, a fabulous adventure!

We rented this van for our trip to the Gorge Amphitheater for a weekend. We had such a great experience! Starting off Peter was super friendly and helpful, he gave us a great run through of the vehicle and showed us how to use everything so we felt very comfortable before taking off. The van handled the drive very well. We are so grateful to have had a comfortable bed, refrigerator and shade over the weekend. We will definitely keep this is mind for any future trips!

Such an awesome experience! Peter went above and beyond to make sure our trip went smoothly and he was genuinely interested in our adventure which added to the hype! The van was in immaculate condition and Peter was extremely thorough in walking us through the ins and outs of the van to make sure we were comfortable and could make the most of all it had to offer. 10/10 would recommend!!

Just returned from a ten day trip in Cascadia One. We could not have asked for a better experience as we are considering building out a van of our own. If we do, it will be very much like Cascadia One, which is basically a studio apartment on wheels. The van is cozy, comfortable, well equipped, and well designed. The layout met our every need and expectation. All of the systems and equipment worked flawlessly. Peter was a gracious host, and made the experience easy and friendly.

We had a great experience with Peter and his Sprinter van. He spent all the time he needed to get us acclimated and comfortable. The van was totally set up and everything was perfect. We had a great experience and we definitely would rent from him again.

Van was incredible. Had everything we needed. Great layout. Quiet, private. Van drive great; enjoyed driving it. Peter and Tracy were awesome hosts and fully prepared us for the trip.

This was such a smooth rental process, Peter is very organized and thorough while also making the orientation feel so comfortable and non intimidating. He was very understanding for a mishap we had on the trip which we very much appreciated. The rig itself is so easy to drive (for the most part - backing up is kind of a thing lol), is in pristine condition and has everything you could possibly want or need ready to go. If you are wanting an AirBnB on wheels this is it! If you have a bad back the bed might be a little uncomfortable as the mattress is quite firm, but otherwise this rig is such a dream! So much so that we are now planning on doing van life for real! 10/10 would recommend this Peter and this van!

Peter & Tracy were great hosts, and we’d absolutely consider renting from them again. From the beginning they had clear and friendly communication through the app, and in person during the check-in process and throughout our rental. Orientation to the van was thorough and we appreciated all of the tips and added features we were shown. Peter was patient with our questions and a great source of information & knowledge both before we took off and on the few occasions we had questions during the trip. We appreciated his flexibility and support.
The van was great to drive, had great storage space in the gear garage, & good gas mileage for a large vehicle. It could be intimidating for those not used to driving something sizable, but Peter gave us great directions during the check-in and test drive allowing us to feel confident. We were appreciative of how well thought-out the outfitting and included gear is, and think it’s a fantastic value. We’re definitely van camping converts!

What a pleasure to be onboard Cascadia 1. Peter was super helpful explaining everything and getting us safely on the road. Communication was great and everything worked as expected. Looking forward to rent this beauty again. Stephan

I will start out by saying that renting from Peter and Tracy is like renting from life-long friends. They go above and beyond to make sure your experience is first rate.

Having had reservations cancelled at the last minute with another company for a van with a failed transmission, I asked this owner if his van had two beds, one for me and my dog and one for my teen. He assured me that yes his van had two beds, a queen and a dinette that converted into a bed. This was not the case! The second “bed” was a table that lowered to bench level and the “mattress” was a 1/4” hard mat. There were two sleeping bags: one was substantial, the other Not. The queen bed was a DIY so poorly designed that to get it pulled out and fit correctly was exhausting and stressful even with two strong people. Before we left, the orientation and test drive took two hours, so our trip started off late. By the time we finally arrived at the campground it was getting dark. Unfortunately, the inverter started beeping at an alarmingly loud level. When we figured out where it was coming from we shut off the power button to stop the noise. Having no idea what the device was or the consequences of shutting it off, we anxiously awaited a text back from the owner. A half hour later he texted back to wait until morning to see what it would do. The next morning, waking on the rock hard table “bed” having hardly slept trying to keep warm with the inadequate sleeping bag, we anxiously tested the inverter. Luckily it seemed to have fixed itself. We struggled to get the “beds” put away, and set off on our next destinations, weary from the stress. The sliding door was really hard to get closed all the way and kept locking in the almost closed position, making it very annoying every time we had to open/close it. The van was very loud and felt what I imagine to be like driving a garbage truck. I had no faith that it would make it through our five day trip. The second day, a message displayed on the dashboard, “Brakes showing wear, take to the work shop”. After texting the owner, he suggested we take it to Les Shwab. We were far from a Les Shwab so drove with trepidation all the way down there. After inspection they told us it might be a faulty message. The stress made our beautiful trip into a stressful nightmare. I returned the van with a bad taste in my mouth for so called Mercedes Sprinters that are actually Dodge Vans. I do not recommend renting this beast of a vehicle!!

Peter & Tracy’s answer

RV OWNERS BEWARE: I strongly suggest NOT renting your vehicle to Angelique Puccio. She behaved in a dishonest and vindictive manner at the completion of her trip despite our efforts to be supportive, fair and honest at all times.

This van was awesome to say the least. Not only did it have the space but was also stocked with all the essentials. It was perfect for a 4 day get away packed with mtn biking and hiking. The back garage was perfect for all of our biking supplies. The cooler provided kept everything cold and even kept ice on the freezer side. Peter and Tracy were very thorough when we picked up the van and made sure we were comfortable with it before take off. If you're looking to rent a sprinter I highly recommend Peter & Tracy's. Great people and a reliable van!
