Most of the below rules are discussed elsewhere in the agreement, and may be discussed at orientation or are just common sense, but let’s be on the same page. We will provide information on the operation of the 2012 Mercedes Sprinter Conversion Van at the time of pickup, and will provide instruction manuals/tutorials for the operation of coach systems, features, and appliances. It is the renter's responsibility to understand and follow instructions. (You can call us though, really..we love to help) Failure to use proper handling of any of the systems, features, or appliances in RV may result in damage, and renter will be liable for the cost to repair.
No Smoking is allowed inside the vehicle, or your entire security deposit will be retained to have the RV professionally cleaned. Respect to those who like to smoke, but just not in the van please. We suggest Renters purchase the Outdoorsy Damage Protection Plan that offers an additional 1500.00 of interior protection in addition to the Security Deposit for longer rentals of a week or more. (It’s cheaper than re-upholstering a couch or replacing the roof tent)
Please return the van as clean as you got it to avoid an additional 100.00 cleaning fee. For example, taking your trash out, sweeping out the van, collecting your belongings, cleaning out the fridge. Sanitizing is not necessary. Renter is responsible for any tickets or tolls even if the notice arrives after the security deposit has been released. Outdoorsy will notify you. Tire damage is the responsibility of the renter while in your possession. If the renter believes it is due to owner negligence, the tire must be brought back for a neutral, professional evaluation. Reimbursement is based on that result. We are very good about checking out tires condition before renting it out. If there is a mechanical failure or problem requiring roadside assistance, the renter should call the roadside assistance purchased through the rental, and alert the owner immediately. RENTER SHALL NOT ATTEMPT TO MAKE REPAIRS. In the event that out of pocket expenses for repairs are unavoidable and which are not covered by insurance or roadside assistance will be reimbursed by the owner upon return of the vehicle as long as the owner is made aware prior to such repairs and receipts are provided. (Very, very unlikely) NO DIY! Renter is responsible for checking/ maintaining engine oil level, tire pressure, diesel exhaust fluid, and coolant levels at each refueling. Cost due to negligence will be the renter's responsibility. Vehicle must be returned with a full tank of diesel fuel. If not, refueling fee will apply. We allow pets by approval only with an added Pet Fee. Any smell of urine or feces, pet B.O. or excessive pet hair, will result in an extra cleaning fee of 150.00. *We suggest Renters with pets purchase the additional Damage Protection Plan for longer trips.
That's a lot of rules, and possibly not all of them that apply! We love our van and use if for our family too, so we just want to protect it. But we want you to enjoy it too! Take lots of pictures, put on some DVDs for your kids or yourselves, keep the beer cold(not while driving of course) and explore the U.S.

We had a great road trip to Big Bend in this camper van! It was an easy way to travel with 2 young kids and stay organized. Super easy to drive. Alison was a lovely host, very responsive and accommodating. Highly recommend!

Look no further than Alison & her super cool campervan for your next road trip! Alison is the sweetest and took time to walk me through the Van & answer all my questions. (She even let us borrow some of her kids’ DVDs for the trip!)

The whole experience was excellent. The owners were flexible and helpful. At the initial walk-through, they explained all the functions of the van, answered all of our questions, and gave us helpful tips. The van is an easy drive, with good visibility and acceleration. It handled the steep mountain roads in New Mexico with no problems, and it’s small enough to fit in a standard parking spot. The ability to use Apple Carplay made navigation easy. Our family of 4 was comfortably on the road for 7 days. We loved the forward-facing car seats for the kids, very comfortable and lots of space for each of them. The kids slept great on the fold-out couch and the top bed was big enough for me at 6’(I used a sleeping pad to have a consistent surface under me). At night the temps got down to 30, so we stayed at sites with electricity and used the included space heater, which kept us nice and cozy. There is ample storage in the van, even with me overpacking. And the fridge holds a surprisingly large amount of food. The owners were great at the drop-off as well. Our family is looking forward to our next trip.
