5The Rayvan was such a treat to rent. Great van/setup. Everything you need and more for camping in AK.

5Bethany’s Rayvan was great - comfy, cozy, had all the amenities we needed for a great trip in the Kenai Peninsula. One suggestion is for a taller step ladder so we could have hooked up the canopy, we were too short with the 2-step ladder provided. Otherwise, just right!

Our favorites: -$70-80 to fill gas -external battery charges while driving and provides electricity and adjustable heater ALL NIGHT! Never needed to turn the van on at night for heater. -easy to drive -propane stove and kitchen ware -lots of storage space We loved having Rayvan on our 6 day trip and got to see so much of Alaska because of it!!

Frequently asked questions
Q.
What flexibility is available for picking up and dropping off the RV?
A.
I like to play in the Alaska outdoors and I work. If you need to pick up Rayvan when I am not available I can make arrangements for someone to meet you to go over the van, or I can just leave the keys and paperwork for you to sign and there is a manual. I try hard to be available.
