About Somer & Kate Kvale
Le Réve has been born out of a love for the outdoors and the opportunity that owning/renting a van of our own provides us! Nothing makes us happier than the idea of sharing this van with others who have fallen hard for this kind adventuring. It is our desire to not only think of but include the small yet meaningful details in hopes of delivering a low stress and highly fulfilling experience in our van. We are looking forward to connecting with you!

Somer and Kate were such great hosts. They gave us a thorough run down of everything we needed to know for the camper van and it was impeccably outfitted with all the small details that made for a comfortable and luxurious camping experience. They were also very kind and gracious. We would DEFINITELY rent from them again!
Somer & Kate’s answer
Thanks so much for the kind words. We are so glad you had such a wonderful experience and we would DEFINITELY rent to you again :)

Kate was amazing and very helpful and responded promptly druning our trip when we had a question. LE REVE is wonderful! We traveled over 2500 miles and had her for over a week. LE REVE was comfortable and handled the mountains like a champ. Great overhead vents, when it got hot we turned on the van and ran the A/C for 15 minutes right before bed. The battery never went below 40%. We did bring some forks, spoons and knives, and their cutting knives in LE REVE are better than what we have at home. Also, lots of storage in the “garage” - we fit 3 large plastic totes and a cooler for beverages. We did bring a short ladder but did not need it 😊 Highly recommend!

The van was beautiful and well equipped. Kate was an awesome host, friendly and flexible throughout the rental. Little touches like headlamps and a campfire blanket made the trip even better.

Kate did an excellent job explaining how certain things work in the van as well as providing written instructions. As for the van itself, it served every purpose that I hoped for and exceeded expectations - it is a very high quality camper van.

Kate and Somer share their amazing van with us for a great weekend get away. The van is super clean and they have thought of some many details to make our trip easy and stressless!
The hosts are friendly, flexible and available should you need anything while away. The drop off and pick up was easy. Kate gave us a full tour and made sure we knew how to use/find everything. We can’t wait to book again next summer. Thank you!!

Le Reve was perfect from the way it drives, comfort and ease of getting around crowded tourist spots. Thankful for the opportunity to rent and explore the US!

Le Reve is great and well equipped. Kate made sure I felt comfortable before heading off solo. On the trip that will forever change my life. If you're thinking about trying it, just do it.
Somer & Kate’s answer
I am so overjoyed you had the experience you dreamed of and I can’t wait to hear about your journey with Van life. Thank you for being such a great person to rent to and good luck with all of your future adventures.

Kate and Somer are the ultimate hosts! We had never rented an RV before and really didn’t know what to expect. Kate and Sommer provided everything and we spent 5 days living “off grid” and wanted for nothing 10/10. The van is very easy to drive and set up. We had so much fun that we’re ready to build our own van and start living the #vanlife too!
Somer & Kate’s answer
You and Jess were just awesome to work with. Thank you so much for the opportunity to have Le Reve be your first Campervan experience. We’re so glad you had such a good time! Let us know if you have any questions about your own build out.

Kate was awesome to work with. Great communication before, during, and after the trip. Le Rêve was clean and fully stocked with all the things we would need and more. Everything was explained and overall was very easy to use. The kitchen functioned perfectly and the bed made for a very comfortable sleep. It was chilly at night but the heater kept us toasty. Highly recommend!
Somer & Kate’s answer
Thank you so much, Katie! You and Olivia were an absolute delight! I hope you come back to visit MN again sometime soon! Safe travels!

Le Reve (and Kate and Somer) were amazing. The van is well thought through with lots of awesome details and comforts. Kate and Somer have also filled the van with awesome little add-ons - games, towels, dishes, and more! We didn't even wind up bringing everything we packed because Le Reve had so much already. Our hosts were also extremely personable and accommodating. This is our second vancation and I can tell you that if we ever do another one, we would rent Le Reve. 12/10
Somer & Kate’s answer
Oh how sweet are you, Joe and Kelly!
You were dream renters. Thank you so much for the kind words!

Trip- Duluth and north shore area.
Somer and Kate have put heart and soul into Le Reve and it shows. The van functioned as it should but it was more then that. They have stocked it with everything you could need for a delightful trip. The bed is super comfy, lighting and ventilation options are numerous. Communication was easy and quick responses were appreciated. Somer and Kate will be the first to look up when we rent again.
