Fantastic experience with both Sebastien and the trailer. The trailer was in great shape and very clean. Sebastien was very responsive and super helpful - he even had a series of videos he sent us on how to operate the trailer.

Sebastian was a great host. He will give you as much or as little support you need. He does a great job keeping the inside decorated to a minimum so you can make your trip yours. We hope to rent from him again! For those of you who own a Bronco this little trailer tows great behind one. Just make sure you have an 8” hitch extension.

Amazing trailer and towed great with my Dual Motor model Y. Got a consistent 160+ miles of range at 60mph. Very clean and everything worked great.

The owner was very helpful and knowledgeable. He graciously answered all of our questions and was patient with us newbies. We had a great trip in the Basecamp.

Sebastien was a great host with an immaculate rig for 2 weeks worth of adventure! Airsteam definitely makes a rugged, comfortable RV that is still able to explore more remote areas.

Sebastian is a superb host! His communication throughout our interactions far exceeded my expectations. He is helpful and a very nice person who offers an above and beyond Outdoorsy experience. The Airstream BasecampX was clean, well-appointed, and stocked with a bag of local coffee. I highly recommend booking with Sebastian!

Great camper with no problems at all. Can tell the Airstream is a quality built camper compared to other options. Sebastian is a great host and easy to communicate/coordinate with. I will rent this camper again in the future.

Sebastien's Base Camp 16X is fantastic and he really takes the time to answer questions and go over everything about it. We towed it behind my 2016 Colorado Z71 without any issues (including a bed full of gear). The camper is cozy, but has all the features you'll want, not to mention of course being easy to manage on the road. Highly recommend!

Sebastien Jean canceled the booking 6 days before departure. This is an automated posting.

Great trip! Sebastien is very cool and easy to work with. The trailer was everything we expected and we loved it. Out 3 year old daughter especially loved the bed setup and she felt like this was her little trailer! If we have the opportunity again, I will be renting this same trailer from Sebastien in the future.

Very nice, clean well maintained camper. Tows well behind my 2021 Chevy Colorado. Sebastian was great to work with on this rental

From the moment we picked up the Airstream Base Camp from Sebastien and Lori, to returning it 7 days later, we couldn't have a better experience! They are GREAT hosts and were very accommodating. The trailer is super clean and practically looks brand new. Sebastien uploaded videos to help us if we had questions on the road. So comfortable and easy to use. We will be renting again and again!

Fantastic. Look forward to next time.
Sebastian was absolutely the best in all aspects of the process. He spent time to show me everything.

Fantastic experience all around! We had a great trip to Zion National Park. Sebastian was very flexible and accommodating with pick up and drop off. It tows easily with a mid-size SUV, and is the perfect size for two people . Huge thanks to Sebastian for the rental!

Had a wonderful experience on Sebastien’s Airstream Basecamp. It’s a really innovative vehicle, with clean design and range of clever conveniences. Sebastian was a very supportive Outdoorsy host...generous with his time, willing to show things in detail and has created a great set of videos to help you understand exactly how things work. All in all a great rental from a great host.

This unit was perfect for our little family of three and made for a fun and comfortable week of camping. It was impeccably clean and ready to go when we picked it up. Sebastien and Lorri put great little touches in as well, with some of the best coffee grounds we’ve had in awhile as well as Covid and environmentally friendly eating ware. Would definitely rent from them again!!

The perfect choice for a November trip to California’s Lost Coast!
Sebastian was fantastic and took the time to show us how everything worked…took about 45 minutes. We have a lot of experience towing trailers, so that part didn’t take long for us, but for people with less experience, there are several little tips and tricks (and some important safely considerations).
On that note, I probably wouldn’t recommend the Basecamp for someone who has never towed anything simply because it’s a very expensive piece of equipment, it sticks up tall enough to completely block rearview mirror visibility and to catch low overhanging branches and it’s big enough to require a bit of room to turn it around and/or some backing up skills. Might be better to rent a small trailer and get some practice first.
That said, if you have a little towing experience and the right vehicle, the Basecamp tows really nicely – smooth as silk, actually. And it has great trailer breaks, lights, tires, safety stuff, etc.
Okay, with the disclaimer out of the way, here are some pros and cons of our camping experience:
PROS: It’s a super cozy camping option when the weather sucks. We camped on the northern California coast and it was alternately windy, foggy, cold and rainy. We also camped in the Sierra Nevada Mountains and the temps dropped into the 20s. The heater kept us nice and toasty. We never would have done this trip in November with a tent or even with our truck pop up camper.
Not only is it warm and dry inside, but the interior is elegant and just fun to hang out in. The kitchen has tons of storage and is well designed, so cooking inside is easy peasy.
Another huge advantage of the Basecamp is that you can leave it set up, unhitch it from the truck, lock the hitch, and drive to a nearby trailhead without a lot of fuss. (Once you are familiar with the process this only takes a few minutes).
The shower works well, even as an outdoor shower which we used as much as possible to avoid filling the blackwater tank. And the potty seems to work well also. We stayed at campgrounds with restrooms, so didn’t really use this feature too much, but it’s nice to know it’s there…
Energy-wise, the solar panels work great to top up the battery during the day while you are out hiking or exploring. We used the propane A LOT because it was so cold and because we cooked breakfast and dinner almost every day. So, we went through two propane tanks over the course of our 9 day trip. Fortunately, we brought the one from our BBQ as a backup.
CONS: Needs a wine rack in the kitchen…but we managed somehow. :)
Also, not an issue for us, but if you are over six feet tall, you’re feet might hang over the edge of the bed. If your partner is also tall, you might be playing footsies at some point because the opening at the end of the bed is in the center third of the space.
Speaking of the bed, it is very firm (just the way one of us likes it). A couple sleeping pads (we used the eggcrate kind) worked great for us.
Finally, the outdoor shower doesn’t seem to have a place to hang the shower head (maybe there is one and we just didn’t find it), but nothing a couple bungees or straps can’t fix.
Neutral: We had some condensation inside on the windows in the damp conditions at the coast, but other than obstructing the view through the windows in the morning, it wasn’t a problem and dried up soon after sunrise when the humidity dropped. In the drier areas we traveled, we experienced little or no condensation.
We didn’t use the side tent, but I think it would have made doing various chores like unpacking and packing hiking gear and changing clothes easier…at least for a winter camping trip. We spent a fair amount of time removing the cushions to access storage, setting up and taking down the tables, etc. With the tent extension, we could have stored more stuff outside, left the bed set up, and so forth.
Another storage strategy we found helpful was to store the trash bag and recycle bag in the bathroom.
Overall the basecamp was perfect and Sebastian was perfect host with all the info we needed. Great kitchen. Good storage. Cozy and private little cave when ready to come inside. Nice lighting. Not glaring like in our truck camper.
