2021 Happier Camper HC1
Fully equipped ultralight weight towable trailer for your camping enjoyment. The trailer has a modular living system with a full size bed, bunk beds for two kids. Pet friendly!2024 was a pretty good year thanks everyone!For 2025 we are going to stick with a hard 5 day minimum as we've had the best experience when everyone has the time to get used to the camper.For the 24-25 off season we are adding some special rules to encourage road trips. Typically the camper is in storage but we will retrieve it for 10 day minimum, and only 25$ a day after that!We can only do pickups/drop-offs in the early morning (typically at 8AM) or in the evening (after 7pm) unless arranged in advance. Just reach out to ask for alternative accommodations prior to booking, I promise we will do our best!Pickup/Dropoff
The camper lives at a commercial storage unit in Dedham and our preference is to drop the camper off at your house/driveway the night before if you live a reasonable distance away. If not, we have a lockbox on the camper, which will be prepared for your trip and you can pick it up and drop it off at the storage unit (you’ll get the combo the night before).For those who are new to towing, and/or would like an in-person pickup please reach out prior to booking so we can make sure schedules align!The trailer itself can be towed by almost any vehicle with a hitch (1100lbs base weight). When power is available, the unit has an AC and small heater. Two awnings, and a breakfast bar/table attachment make outdoor living fun and styling. The rear door opens up so you can enjoy the outdoor air during the day. Windows have screens and shades.Equipment
We provide just the standard equipment with the trailer which includes the electrical, hose, basic tools and a pop-up trash can and outdoor mats. We do have some optional extras available for a nominal price, please choose what you are interested in and we’ll have the trailer setup to your preference.Happy Camping!What's included• Below is a list of included equipment:Category Name

Meet your host, Boston Camps
Member since 2021
The spark behind Boston Camps came after meeting up with some friends at the park. It was towards the end of the summer and we were recounting our summer adventures. After mentioning our various camping trips we heard a familiar refrain… “We should do that, but I haven’t camped in ages”. We will be creating and posting content to to help families navigate camping in New England. Feel free to checkout our listings, we've attempted to translate our experiences into a great, rentable and preconfigured towable trailer. Happy camping!

Q.What is included with the base camper?
A.
The camper comes with the bed, bunk beds, storage cubes, 2-top table for inside, (2) 1-top table (1-) outdoor base for table.
One of the cubes doubles as a cooler (very insulated).
We include a 50ft 30amp electrical cable with 15amp adapter (for standard outlets). LED lights are available when on shore power.
[New 2023] We include an area carpet for the side of the camper, and a rear mat for behind the door.
Q.Can I use this for driveway camping (guest room)
A.
You are free to use this for driveway camping or as an extra room! We are happy to drop-off locally (about 20 minutes from Boston area (e.g. Boston, Brookline, Newton, Cambridge).
If you are going to tow it yourself please make sure you have all the necessary equipment.
Q.Can I use this for events / weddings / photos
A.
Of course! Please reach out with details, especially on timing for pickup / drop-off. Please expect a 300 to 400 minimum quote for single-day rentals as we blend the cost of our time to prepare / clean trailer into longer rentals.
Q.What hitch do I need?
A.
You need at least a class II hitch with a 2-inch receiver. These are standard hitches installed on my consumer vehicles and can be installed a local U-Haul.
