The refrigerator is wonderful. Cold water and ice cream sandwiches in the dessert.

Melissa’s RV was beautifully maintained and its size at 18’ makes it super easy to drive and park. Its hook ups and mechanical systems are very easy to use, making it simple for even the RV novice. Thanks for allowing us to use your RV for a wonderful trip!!

We had a pleasant trip and a great experience renting this camper van. The hosts were very communicative, responsive, and easy to work with throughout the entire process. The van was as described and made our road trip enjoyable and stress-free. I would definitely recommend renting from them for your next road trip!

The van was great and Melissa made sure you had everything needed and understood how to use everything before the trip.

I WILL ABSOLUTELY RENT FROM THIS HOST AGAIN! Their response time is incredible. Their RV is so fun and it’s the perfect size. Because of them, we were able to take a very comfortable road trip. I will be forever thankful for their support and for the use of their rental.

NO COMFORTABLE SLEEPING SYSTEM. The vehicle smells like old cigarette smoke. Very limited storage.

We started in San Diego and went East to the Anza Borrego Desert State Park then north to Pinnacle National Park and west to Big Sur and Dow Rt 1 Pacific Highway along the coast back to San Diego. Camping at state parks along the way. Camper worked great with solar and generator options. Melissa was very responsive with any communication we had.

This was our first experience renting an RV through Outdoorsy and it couldn't have been better! Pinky gave a detailed intro and demo of the RVs features when we picked it up and made sure the RV was in excellent condition. We drove a loop from LA to Las Vegas to Prescott, AZ to Phoenix to Joshua Tree and back to LA. The RV performed flawlessly - we were pleasantly surprised by how easy it is to maneuver and how good the gas mileage was. We would definitely do this again. Thanks, Pinky!

The van was perfect! Such a great layout for the size. Has all of the amenities to be unsupported off grid but you can park it anywhere around town when you want to stop in for a coffee or a bite while on the road. We will definitely rent again!

Melissa really took the time to show me how everything worked before we left. What a great and easy experience! We loved the van and you can tell it is well taken care of. Felt brand new. Very cozy for me and my girlfriend. We will definitely be renting this camper van again for the next adventure!
Thanks Melissa!!

We rented this van for a month and embarked on our first true camping adventure, covering an impressive 6,546 miles. The experience was both challenging and rewarding, teaching us a lot about life on the road.

Simply unforgettable
The RV was absolutely perfect for us — a couple traveling with our dog. We covered a lot of ground, and everything worked flawlessly. The vehicle runs great, is super comfortable to drive, and is fully equipped with everything you need.

Super friendly communication. All the bells & whistles to operate in hot & cold climates. Was perfect for the two of us traveling to Sedona & the Grand Canyon.
