Meet the Sugar Magnolia, a sleek, custom 2021 Ram Promaster campervan designed for simplicity and comfort to maximize the fun of your Alaska vacation. This van is super easy to drive and park, and is the perfect option for easy, convenient camping!Just as the song says, Sugar Magnolia's got everything delightful, and she's got everything you need both on and off the grid. This comfortable campervan has all the essentials to make your Alaska adventure easy. The high roof and short queen-size bed make for comfortable living. The countertop and sink provide plenty of space to prepare a snack or ingredients for a delicious meal, and the passenger seat swivels a full 180 degrees. The 12-volt Dometic cooler is steps above the competition, offering controlled temperature setting and eliminating the need for ice in traditional coolers while optimizing food storage capabilities.The rental comes fully equipped with all the upgraded amenities and basic essentials you'll need for stress-free travel both off the grid and in campgrounds. An auxiliary battery with a 2000W pure sine wave power inverter will charge your phone, tablet and other sensitive devices, and keep the lights on with no need to worry about draining the van battery.To make your life a easier and more affordable, an Alaska state park pass for day parking at trailheads is provided as part of your rental. And, for your safety and convenience, the van even contains a canister of bear spray for your outdoor adventures.The van has automatic transmission, A/C and uses regular unleaded fuel, which is readily available along Alaska's road system. It has a 7 gallon freshwater supply and 7 gallon gray water receptacle.We strongly believe that visiting Alaska should be a safe, joyous and inclusive experience for all. We proudly welcome members of the B.I.P.O.C. and L.G.B.T.Q. communities.What's includedFresh bed linens and light comforter

RecommendationsWe have extensive experience living and traveling in Alaska and will be happy to recommend destinations and activities based on your personal interests. A must-see for first-time visitors is Denali National Park. The Kenai Peninsula provides multiple great trails for hiking and mountain biking. (As long-time mountain bikers, we can provide detailed information on trails to match your desire and ability.) The towns of Seward and Homer offer spectacular scenery, great camping, and wonderful day cruises for salmon and halibut fishing, or for seeing whales, puffins, sea lion among the stunning mountains and glaciers of Kenai Fjords National Park.If you have ideas for specific locations and activities but need advice, just let us know. We'll be happy to help.Other things to noteDriver must be over the age of 25 to qualify for rental and insurance coverage. Improved dirt roads and many trailheads are permitted. However, there are road restrictions. This vehicle is equipped with GPS telematics. Travel on the following roads is not permitted: Denali Highway between Cantwell and Paxon (this is not the main road going to Denali National Park); Dalton Highway, Nabesna Road; McCarthy Road; or any other unimproved gravel roads or beaches. Failure to adhere to this restriction will result in forfeiture of your security deposit.This vehicle may not be used for towing.To reduce food odors in the van and for your safety in bear country, we ask that you cook outdoors and store food properly.The van will have a full fuel tank when you pick it up, and should be returned with a full tank. Any required additional fuel will be charged to the renter, as well as a $35 service fee.Renters are expected to remove personal belongings and properly dispose of trash and gray water prior to drop-off to avoid a $35 cleaning fee.To allow time for prep and cleaning between rentals, pick-up time is 2:00 p.m. and drop-off time is 11:00 a.m. We will do our best to accommodate alternate times upon request. Alternate times might result in additional fees.When you request a booking, we really appreciate a brief note of introduction and a little something about your trip. It helps us know how to best help you have a successful and fun vacation, and we're always grateful to know a little bit about the people who want to take our van out on the road.

5Sugar Magnolia was the perfect van for our inland adventure. She handles like a dream and provided a comfy, cozy camp wherever we stopped. Tim & Nelta have just the right amount of gear for camp cooking. Bear spray tutorial was clutch. Our 1st van life week has us hooked! Brian & Julie
