À propos de Jake locations de camping-car

My name is Yacoob (Jake)! I started out as a passionate outdoor enthusiast, with a heart that beats for the thrill of hiking, snowboarding, and everything nature has to offer. Fueled by this insatiable love for the outdoors, I embarked on a journey that would soon become a passion! It all began with a humble dream – crafting vans that perfectly melded with the rugged landscapes I adored. Building these vans for personal adventures, using sustainable materials, my creations caught the attention of fellow nature aficionados. Enthusiasm grew, as admiration turned into demand. Seeing the genuine appreciation for my work, I took a leap of faith and transformed a personal endeavor into a mission to share the beauty of the outdoors with the world. With unwavering commitment and a heartwarming desire to make outdoor exploration accessible to all, I now have took personal time to pour my heart and soul into crafting affordable vans that mirror the very essence of nature's splendor. Every build tells a story, a tale of passion, sustainability, and the unbreakable bond between humans and the great outdoors. I created Overland Camper Vans and soon joined the Outdoorsy community in an adventure that transcends boundaries, guided by a vision to inspire, empower, and embrace the call of the wild. Your journey awaits, as you step into a world where passion and purpose come together to create the ultimate outdoor experience.

Souvenirs de séjours avec les camping-car de Jake Carter

We took the island hopper to burning man and it was honestly the perfect set up for us. It was a godsend for us, it was very cute on the inside. the alien wallpaper was neat.. Jake was fabulous at communicating with us and responding right away even when he was on vacation. He ensured the tires were all good to go right before we picked it up for our long journey. We took it through countless national parks and it got us through all of it. The bed was super comfortable and the fridge was perfect for what we needed. We would for sure take this to burning man again, and would rent from Jake anytime.

Overall we had a great time! There was a small hiccup with the pick up time, which Jake compensated us for without hesitation. The Bear Den camper wasn't anything overly fancy (which is exactly what we wanted), but had everything we needed along with other thoughtful touches. We loved being able to take our dog with us to explore the North Cascades and to not have to worry about the amount of miles we were driving. Jake was also flexible with us on the return time, which was much appreciated. Jake went out of his way to make sure we were taken care of and we'd definitely rent from him again!

réponse de Jake

Thank you so much for the thoughtful review! I’m really glad the Bear Den was a good fit for your trip and that you got to explore the North Cascades with your pup—that’s exactly what the vans are meant for. I appreciate your flexibility with the pickup hiccup, and I’m happy we were able to get it all worked out smoothly. Thanks again for taking such great care of the van, and I’d love to host you on your next adventure anytime!

Amazing experience. Jake was incredible to work with. When things didn’t go as planned, Jake went above and beyond to make things right. The van we drove for 5 days was literally a dream. Very thoughtfully laid out and had the right features we needed for our camping trip. I would highly recommend and would easily rent again if my path leads me to the PNW again.

réponse de Jake

Thank you so much for taking the time to share this! I’m really glad to hear you had such a great trip and that the van worked out perfectly for your camping adventure. Things don’t always go exactly according to plan, so it means a lot to me that you appreciated the effort to make things right. I put a lot of care into setting up the vans so they’re not only functional but also comfortable, and it’s wonderful to hear the layout and features made your journey easier. I’d be more than happy to host you again anytime your path brings you back to the Pacific Northwest. Safe travels until then, and thank you again for being such a great guest!

Thank you so much for the 5-star review! I really appreciate you taking the time to share your experience. As a small, hand-built campervan business, feedback like this goes a long way—not just for me, but also for future travelers looking to book their own trip.
I put a lot of time and effort into designing and maintaining each van so guests can have a comfortable, reliable, and unique way to explore the Pacific Northwest and beyond. My goal has always been to give people the freedom to enjoy the road without the stress of hotels, rigid schedules, or worrying about how far they can go. There’s something special about being able to pull over at a scenic spot, cook a meal, and fall asleep under the stars—and I’m glad you got to experience that.

Autumn breeze was a great van for touring the PNW. The large bed was nice for sleeping two people, and all the camping necessities were included

réponse de Jake

Thank you so much for sharing your experience with Autumn Breeze! We’re so glad to hear that the van made a great base for your PNW adventure. That large bed is one of our favorite features too—it’s always nice having the extra space to stretch out after a long day of exploring.
It means a lot to us that you mentioned the camping necessities. We’ve put a lot of thought into equipping our vans with everything you might need so you can focus on the fun part—enjoying the trip—without worrying about the small details. Hearing that it all came together for you makes us really happy.
We truly appreciate you choosing to travel with us and for taking the time to leave a review. As a small, growing business, every bit of feedback helps us improve and also gives future travelers a sense of what to expect. We hope Autumn Breeze gave you some great memories of the Pacific Northwest!
Safe travels and thanks again for being part of our little campervan community.

Thankful that the van was reliable and we did not break down while we were on the road. The tires were in great shape.
However, the prep fee(which I feel should be refunded to me) was a joke. The van was dirty; the inverter for power did not work; there were no working batteries in the lights; there were no window coverings for privacy; except for the windshield which what torn and flimsy. There was dirt and left over food and old ketchup in the vehicle. I did not use anything in the van. We went to walmart and purchased new sheets and pillows and blankets and covered everything; when i told Jake about the lack of “prep” he offered for me to go buy and get reimbursed but I am on a vacation and he did not discount the van for the inconvenience of the last minute bait and switch move he pulled. I do not recommend renting from Jake unless you are okay with misrepresentation of vehicle. I told him my husband was on a c-pap and we needed power to the van for his c-pap and this van was not equipped for that. We had to go to home depot and buy extension cord, power strip; a fan;.
It was a very disappointing experience we purchased the winter forrest van(2023)which we were told had mechanical issues at 8pm the night before our trip and received a 2006 van that was ill equipped and unattractive for our vacation. The windshield was so dirty that we had to stop right away and have someone clean it because a regular squeegee at the gas pump did not clean. There was no windshield fluid in the vehicle so we couldn’t gwt the glare off. The lights for driving were so dull we had to rife on hi-beams when driving at night. I should receive a $500 refund for my time lost; my bait and switch experience; our inability to sleep because of no power for the c-pap machine;
Maybe this is common practice but he left the keys in the gas tank and we never met him. We actually returned the vehicle in better condition than we received it. Do not rent from Jake; He did not take care of us.

réponse de Jake

The van this guest booked—Winter Forest, a 1998 Dodge Ram—is clearly listed with accurate photos and description. There was no “bait and switch.” When it had a last-minute issue, I upgraded her to a newer, taller, more spacious van with extra amenities at no cost.

We had a wonderful trip, I’d highly recommend working with Jake ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️unlimited mileage was our friend as we drove to Arches NP, Yellowstone, and many other wonderful places. We didn’t have to worry about mileage caps. Also a member of their team was always available.

Jake was an absolutely wonderful host!! The communication was above par, anytime we had questions he was very quick to respond. Even offered to help with giving us tips as to where to go around the state. I have used a lot of Airbnbs & camper vans all over the world & Jake is by far the best host we’ve ever had. Do not hesitate to book a van with him, something you will NOT regret! Thank you again for everything & keeping our trip running smoothly!

réponse de Jake

Thank you so much for the incredible review! It was an absolute pleasure hosting you, and I’m so glad the van worked out perfectly for your trip. I’m happy I could help with recommendations and keep everything running smoothly for you. Hearing that this was your best hosting experience truly means a lot! You’re welcome back anytime for another adventure in Oregon (or beyond). Safe travels!
