Van is also stocked with kitchen utensils, bathroom supplies, clean sheets and pillows, first aid supplies - everything you need.Here are the details....

* Cruise control and all terrain tires

* 2000Wh Power Station with 400 amp hours and 12 volt battery storage; sourced by solar (800 watts), inverter (3000 watts), and shore power
* Espar Airtronic M2 B4L heater (works well in altitude)
* Dometic Fan-Tastic Vent Fan (with Overland Screens air vents for front window for full van air circulation)

* Magnetic and insulated window coverings for all windows
* Leveling Blocks and running boards.Please note that pick up and drop-off times are negotiable and may need to be adjusted if the van has a quick turn-around. We will communicate clearly about this prior to my accepting a booking request. I enjoy being able to give the van a little early at pick up or to allow you to hang on to it an extra hour or two before dropping it off if the schedule allows for it. Sometimes I simply need it back by a certain time to have it ready for the next person!My hope is you will experiment with van life like I did with an outdoorsy rental and decide to buy and/or build your own campervan!
Feel free to reach out with any questions you may have.
What's includedWhat's included: Fresh linens, 2 camping chairs, camp table; cookware, utensils, cleaning supplies, coffee/tea, electric kettle and camp french press, fire extinguisher, .
NOTE: There is a bus from the Denver airport to Buena Vista that runs daily. Visit ridebustang.com or download the BustangOutrider app to see the schedule.
RecommendationsThere are SO many options here and Colorado and beyond...I will leave the planning up to you! Feel free to ask questions and I will do my best to provide recommendations in the local area. Downloading the app "iOverlanders" is a great way to find great camp sites paid and free. Using Harvest Host and Boondockers Welcome are also great resources to stay in unique places, including wineries, breweries, farm to table restaurants, golf courses and beyond! Other things to note No smoking or vaping in the van

5I recently rented Barbara's van for a trip to the Great Sand Dunes with my son, and it was an amazing experience despite the windy and rainy weather. The van was easy to use, making our solo adventure enjoyable. Although it got pretty cold at night, the van kept us warm and comfortable, thanks to its excellent heater. Barbara was fantastic and provided us with everything we needed for a smooth trip. The cozy interior included a small kitchen and ample storage for our gear - and we brought a lot of outerwear. Overall, the van made our trip possible, and I would definitely rent it again!

5Had a blast in this van traveling through southern Utah. It drives great, the bed is super comfortable, and the big sink feels like I'm using a real kitchen. Barb was also a pleasure to interact with while booking, showing me how to use everything, and returning her van.
