The RV was perfect for my young son and I. It was so cool to explore all the little customizations that he has made for his own family camp-life- it left me with a taste for more adventures like it and inspiration in how it’s to be done. And Jonathan is a super cool host and very easy to connect with. Definitely a winning first experience with Outdoorsy of what’s bound to become a new habit.

Jonathan was very accommodating and gave us a good overview of all of the features before we headed out. The van was perfect for our trip up to Denali. We wish we could’ve stayed longer. I highly recommend Jonathan and this van for your Alaska adventures!
