About Dan Barker

Dan and Anna Barker, are the owners of Vantrek LLC. They take a different approach when it comes to each customer. "We want them to have fun, and we'll do what we can to get them to that state of mind. If they're heading on a golf vacation, our guests shouldn't be surprised to have a sleeve of Pro V1s waiting for them upon departure." Clean and fresh linens are standard equipment. "We cross our t's and dot our i's when it comes to industry norms, but there is so much more that can be done to make our customers happy. "And that's the goal." Safety, security and fun! "what else is there when you're traveling?" The Barkers invite "special requests" with each booking. "why not let us help you get to where you want to be?"

Camper van was fantastic. The whole trip went smoothly, had all the appliances we needed, and bed was warm and comfortable. Would definitely go back to Dan and rent this van again.

We absolutely LOVED the van! Dan was wonderful to work with - super easy going and accommodating. Very flexible and great communication. It was our first time renting a van and we will definitely be renting from Dan again. The van has everything that you need and more. Super clean, very comfy bed, easy to operate and lovely to drive. Thank you Dan for such an exceptional experience!

We had a great first experience with sprinter van camping. Dan was responsive, easy to work with, and made sure we understood how to use all the features before we took off. Everything worked well and the bed was comfortable. We're looking forward to our next adventure!

Dan the van man was great to work with! He gave us an easy and quick run down on the workings of the van and then we got to hit the road. It was perfect for our 5 night overnight camping stay. No issues the whole trip. It was so nice to have stove tops where we went given that we couldn’t have fires. The cooler was bigger than we anticipated too and fit all of our perishables. Perfect service all around!

Dan was great. He was very helpful in describing all the amenities The Sunset has. He was accommodating in meeting our requests and answering any questions in a timely manner. The van was used for a festival and it performed great. We used the stove, fridge, camping chairs, outdoor mat, and wagon that was provided. The solar panels in the van powered everything we used for the whole trip. Definitely recommend!

Such a wonderful experience. This was a very easy and comfortable way to camp. Everything we needed and more was available to us. They have a comfortable way of having a home away from home for going off the grid (or even on the grid). We will definitely be return renters in the future.

The Sunset was great! Dan was very easy to work with and talked me through everything I needed to know. It was easy to drive and a great platform to explore the area. The North Cascades were beautiful as was a weekend in Canada.

Beautiful van and Dan was great at explaining all the features. He was also able to fulfill our request for an earlier pickup time. Would definitely rent from him again!

We rented this van for a 2 night concert/camping trip to the Gorge. Dan made sure to answer any questions we had to be sure we were happy with our choice. We were given a thorough briefing on the vans features. It was comfortable to drive. Its solar power system was easy to use and allowed us to camp off grid with ease. The bed was comfy, and the roof top fan kept the temperature just right.
There were several personsl touches that added to the experience.
We knew right away we had made the right choice, and wished we could have stayed longer.
We highly recommend renting one of the vans that
Dan has listed for your next great adventure.

I have nothing but great things to say about both the van and working with Dan. I took this van to the Gorge campground to see Dave Matthews Band Labor Day Weekend 2022. The van has everything you'll need for an amazing trip. It's got a stove and a sink, a fridge, and a mattress that is spacious and probably more comfortable than the one you sleep on at home. The solar panels kept the 12v electric system charged all day and through the night - I was able to keep my devices charged, and the fridge always kept my beers cold. It's got a sweet awning that's easy to work, and it was easy to drive. Dan himself was always very responsive to texts and super friendly and laid back. I originally wanted the van delivered to the airport upon my arrival and paid for the delivery charge, but then I changed my mind and picked it up and wanted the delivery charge refunded. It was no problem for Dan and he refunded me personally through Venmo. He gave me a good overview of everything before I embarked upon my trip. If I ever do this trip again or need a camper van around Spokane, I'll definitely be contacting Dan again for this van. Worth every penny.

Would rent this van 1000 times again. So many personal touches to make your trip as home-like as possible. The bed is roomy and so comfortable! Dan is the best, excellent communication, patient, and accommodating. We had a fabulous time on Sunset!
