Drives great, adaptive cruise control is helpful. Unlimited miles means no worries about distance. James answers all questions quickly before and during the rental.

Kevin’s trailer was super clean, and everything worked well. Pick up and drop off went smoothly. Highly recommend renting from Kevin. We spent 5 days on the coast camping and no issues.

We booked the Flynn Rider to travel to Northern Arizona, southern Nevada as well as up through California. The van had everything we needed. It is equipped with pans for cooking, dinnerware, utensils etc. We were able to successfully dry camp off the grid and never had any issue with losing battery power. We stayed in warm climates and were able to keep the generator on which powered the AC which was really nice. The van is also equipped with a microwave which was convenient as well. It has a lot of digital additions such as wireless chargers, a nice navigation screen up front and you can plug in your phone for CarPlay. We upgraded to have the Starlink which was huge in staying connected in places where there is no cell service. There is a hose for the outdoor shower as well as an indoor shower. The bed was also very comfortable. Bon was a super responsive host - any questions we had, he responded immediately and was very helpful, and we appreciated that as we were first time camper van utilizers. I also appreciate the flexibility in pick up and return times which one may not get with going through commercial camper van rentals. We were also able to leave our cars in Bon's neighborhood which was a safe option. We thank Bon for a great experience and hope to rent again in the future!
