Bluejay is what I named my 2020 Ford Transit Connect, it is a converted small van, lovely for camping trips and adventures!It has a cabinet/desk with a slide out shelf and a L shape bench if you’d like to dine (or use your laptop) inside the van, especially on a rainy day.The couch converts into a 33” wide bed, and it is ideal for one person sleeping comfortably. For two people the bed might feel a bit narrow, but I leave it up to renter's discretion.
If you'd like additional sleeping space for another person, I also offer a small tent (as add-on) that is very easy to setup.
Since this is a minivan, you can’t stand upright inside it, you can only sit or lay down. The van is easy to drive & park, it gets around 25 MPG, has a backup camera, Bluetooth, AC and Heater in the main cabin.What's included** For cooking/food storage:

RecommendationsThere are many campgrounds around the Bay Area, some of my favorite spots are Salt Point State Park (Jenner, CA), Anthony Chabot (Castro Valley, CA).
For day trips, I recommend Rodeo Beach, Bodega Bay, Spring Lake Park (there is also a campground at Spring Lake).

Hello, I am Renata!
In 2021 I converted a SUV into a camper and did a solo cross-country trip in which I was camping for 3 months. Once I returned I bought a small cargo van and converted it into a camper to make camping trips more convenient. My intention is to provide others the opportunity of camping in a minivan and enjoy the outdoors. Cheers!

Renata’s van is great! It’s really well set up and quite cozy. Renata provided everything I needed for the trip and was very accommodating and helpful. Great communication! I’d love to rent this van again sometime.

Renata and her van Bluejay were both awesome. She was very helpful with any questions I had and had stocked the van with many small items to help make it as comfortable as possible. Pretty much everything you need for a camping trip! I am very grateful for the opportunity to rent this van and would highly recommend to anyone.
