About Jake's RV rentals

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.

We had a mostly good experience with the van. We made good memories and enjoyed our travels to Rainier but for the price we felt there were some kinks to work out.
The Good:
- Car ran well - no problems with it driving!
- We appreciated the double fan system especially at night to stay cool on a summer night
- Bed was super comfortable to sleep in :)
The Not so great:
- We would have appreciated being met and person and shown the systems to feel more confident.
- It wasn't as clean as we would have liked (stained cushions, no provided soap/sponge, not clean feeling in the driving area, messy cabinets)
- no privacy screens/anything for the windshield + front windows
- the cooler had a bizarre smell so we opted to remove it from the van for our trip

We had an absolutely incredible experience renting from Jake. From the moment we booked, he was responsive, communicative, and made the entire process seamless.

We rented a camper van to travel the coast of Oregon. The van was everything we needed. Jake was an excellent host. Very commutative and made sure we had what we needed.

Comfy, safe, and fun. Our Oregon experience was made special by this van and we won’t soon forget it. Jake is very nice and accommodating. This is the only way to see Oregon. Thank you Jake!

Had a lovely week trip to Mammoth Lakes, CA with my kiddo and dogs! The van kept us warm when it was very cold and cool when it was very hot and even allowed us to keep the dogs in the van without worry (I set up a fan and put out water of course) while we went horseback riding in the high desert. Had to drop one star for mechanical because the transmission lurched unpredictably and the countertop not being secure as it threw our stuff all over during a turn and things broke. I was able to bungee it, though, to keep that from happening again. Jake was great and very responsive! Would rent again! Had a great time!

The Ultimate Den is the ultimate ride.

Jake’s answer

Thank you so much for the amazing review! It makes us incredibly happy to hear that The Ultimate Den helped make your Gorge Amphitheater adventure such a memorable one. From mountain summits to wide-open highways—and even through a powerful Washington storm—we're glad the van kept you safe, comfortable, and ready for whatever nature had in store.

Overall, Jake was communicative. However, the van did not feel adequately prepared for renters, the cleanliness fell well below expectations, and the transmission issue created unnecessary stress during our vacation. With better preparation, maintenance, and attention to detail, this could be a much better rental experience. As it stands, we left feeling that the listing promised more than the actual experience delivered.

Jake’s answer

Thank you for your feedback. I'm glad to hear you found communication responsive throughout your trip.
