Getting Outdoors

No visit to Mission Peak Regional Preserve would be complete without a trip to the summit. The most popular way to get there is via the challenging six-mile round-trail. Depending on your personal level of fitness, it can take between two to five hours to complete the trail, so don’t forget to stock up on water and snacks before you start the ascent! Once you’ve parked up your RV rental in the parking lot on Stanford Avenue, there will be clear signs marking the trailhead. At the beginning, the trail offers a gentle slope through open fields and towards sparse areas of forest. However, the path quickly becomes steep and offers little shade during the heat of the day. Eventually, hikers will catch a glimpse of the infamous Mission Peak pole – do be sure to take a photo with it!

Everything was great! Kyle is very communicative and was very helpful from pickup to return. Everything works as advertised, very clean and comfortable inside. So many amenities available for a stress free camping trip. Would definitely recommend!

We had Kelvin’s Sprinter for 5 weeks so got to know it very well and it was perfect for our trip/needs.
Kelvin was a very helpful and generous host who was easy to get in touch with and quickly answered any questions we had.
The van handled everything well, was quick to set up and pack down and we’d happily rent again.
Thanks Kelvin

Great van and fantastic trip!! Very easy to drive, clean and comfy. I rented a van to see how much I liked van life and I had the absolute best time. This one included all the essentials and everything you would think to need (it also included pots and pans so it should be included in the listing). There were some extras I know other van lifers swear by like a light that sticks magnetically to the side of the van and shines on the ground so you can see your way around it. Super cool! It was also extremely clean and SO ORGANIZED. Everything had a little place :) The heater made it all warm and cozy at night too and I like that the stove was gas. Very nice kitchen set up. Only a couple of things to note: the bed is a bit small but I think you have to deal with that most of the time in van life. I do wish there were more written instructions like a binder as I had to message the owner a couple of times (they were quick to respond though). Overall I would say rent this van, you won't regret it :) Thanks so much Winter for my little grand adventure and happy van life!
