Amazing winter vanlife experience in Thing2!!! We (2 adults & dog) did a week-long snowboarding trip from CT to ME, and it was great to have the van as our basecamp & lodge. We were warm & comfortable despite freezing temps outside, and had enough space for all our gear. Michael did a great walk-through of the systems when we picked up & was responsive and helpful throughout the trip - highly recommend.

Edgar was an amazing travel van. Everything i needed and more. A few of the nights I stayed in the van , the temps were in single digits, and I was warm and toasty . Tatiana was more than helpful, with any questions I had about all the amenities in the van. Would definitely rent Edgar again , for any adventures I have planned.
Thanks again

This camper was amazing! His camper was as described, very clean and they had the bedding already made for us and very comfy. Shelton was a great communicator and helped us when we had questions. It had all basic items needed! If we would camp again we would want to use this one again ! The couches were very comfy and had heated seats and the fire place was really a nice touch
