Résumé de l'évaluation
Thorough, responsive, expert host
Curt provides patient, thorough overviews, including test drives, ensuring comfort with the van's operation. He's highly responsive, communicative, and shares expert advice from his extensive experience in custom van builds.
Drives easily, fully equipped
The Sprinter is noted for being easy to drive, even for a big vehicle, with comfortable front seats and cameras. It's well-built, clean, and features a comprehensive kitchen, efficient solar power for extended use, and an outdoor shower.

5.0The Sprinter was extremely comfortable to sleep in and had everything we needed for our camping trip. Since it's a fairly new van, it was also a breeze to drive around. Curt was patient and thorough as a host and made sure we felt comfortable operating the van before we left for our trip. I'd definitely rent with him again!

5.0A great camper van! Well thought out, well built and well maintained. The van is easy to drive for a big vehicle (and gets pretty good mileage). It came with a lot of handy gear like pots and pans, cutlery and utensils, and even some camping chairs and a table. With just solar power (and without running the AC), we never got below like 60% on the battery over a 4 night trip, and we were able to take 8 total showers using the outdoor shower setup in the back (which was quite easy to use). Even though the weather was hot, opening the windows and running the fan was enough for us to sleep in pretty late without overheating. Curt was very friendly and accommodating. Overall we had a great experience with this van!

5.0We were first timers to the adventure van experience and what a fantastic time it was! We were a bit nervous about driving and how to learn all the systems but Curt, the owner gave us a great overview and even took us on a test drive around town. He builds Sprinters and this one has all the bells and whistles, including some cool technology that he designed like the EZ-Exit. We enjoyed a three night trip to the Avenue of the Giants. If you are hesitant at all trying out a Sprinter van, Curt is the guy to rent from. He was very communicative through the process and available when we questions. He is very knowledgable and reassuring and he encourages a good time! If you are looking for an adventure, we highly recommend the trip to Benbow.

5.0The van was amazing! Curt has thought of everything when building it out so everything is right where it needs to be. Very nice and clean. Will rent from again.

5.0The vehicle was in pristine condition with more features than this backpacker could imagine! Driving it was easy thanks to Curt's instructions and the many cameras. The comfortable front seats made the drive even more enjoyable.

5.0Our family’s experience with Curt’s sprinter was truly top notch! His communication was clear and he was super responsive! The van itself was incredible- he has thought of everything. We are a family of 3 (2 adults, an 11 yo and a dog). We were comfortable during the day and we slept peacefully! The bed was sooo comfortable. The kitchen had all we needed, down to the very smallest detail. The van was so easy to drive, too. Curt is so thoughtful, and he really wants to make sure you have the trip you want and all that you need. We rented the van for 3 days, and we’d cant wait to do it again. Curt’s van is the 5 star hotel version on wheels. If you’re considering Curt’s van, look no further, you won’t have any regrets. The only downside is it sets the bar high for everyone else! Thanks curt (his wife was wife was so kind also)! Don’t miss out on this experience!

Foire aux questions
Q.
What flexibility is available for picking up and dropping off the RV?
R.
We are happy to accomodate whatever hour you wish to pick up the van. We do need the van back by 3PM on return day
Q.
Are there any special tricks and tips that would help with operating the RV easily?
R.
We provide a complete manual of how to operate everything in the van. We also try to give you an inperson introduction and a warm up ride before we send you on your way.
Q.
With all those caveats can I still have a good time without worrying?
R.
Yes! We have logged many thousands of miles in our vans and have never had an accident or damage to the van. We know this is not a Jeep or a rockcrawler and consequently we always come back from trips with dirty dishes and linens but no body damage.
Q.
How do the electric, water and sewage hook up work while setting up at the campground?
R.
We will make sure that you know how to hook up shore power before you leave. We will show you how to add fresh water to the 32 gallon tank before you leave. We will show you how to drain the grey water tank. We will make sure that you know how to empty and clean the toilet cassette. (Remember: the toilet will be clean when you take out the van. It must be clean when you briong it back. If we need to do that we will charge you $275. (We prefer not to earn that money)
