About Mike G @CaliforniaVanLifeLLC
Our goal is to serve other outdoor enthusiasts who are considering buying their own van (giving them the ability to try one before they commit to it). My goal is to facilitate connecting with the outdoors. There are so many amazing national parks to explore - it's pretty much impossible to soak it all in in just a day or two. Follow us at Californiavanlifellc on IG for more content with the vans. We are obsessed with the customer experience and plan on offering a great experience to all renters!

Mike was an absolute pleasure to work with. He was prompt, courteous, and went above and beyond to accommodate our needs. The van experience was awesome, and I will definitely do it again when back in the area. Awesome job!

Mike was a perfect host. Generous, flexible and thoughtful. The van was surprisingly peppy and easy to drive. Beware that it only takes premium gas and, for us, it was not available in the park. Also, we found the bed in the pop-up short and cramped. My 5’4” daughter was a tight fit. You’ll need a high step stool to get up there as well. The electric frig and propane stove worked great. The main bed is narrow and would be a cozy fit for 2 people but with 2 pads it was quite comfortable. We loved the tinted big windows and the window shades for privacy and also the back up camera and Apple Play that Mike added. I don’t think we would rent this van again but we had a great time.

Our van was just perfect for us and Mike was detailed in his explanation of the systems. We hope to rent from CVL again. It drove really well and had everything we needed and more.

Mike was extremly friendly and helpful. He went over all of the van features at pickup and made sure to explain how everything works. The 99 VW van was roomy, clean, had all the neccessary amenities, and drove smooth. Cooking was a breeze and the refrigerator stayed plenty cold. Yosemite was amazing and this added to the experience. Would re-book again in the future!

First time renting a van And it was a fantastic experience. Matt spent plenty of time reviewing all of the components, let us pick whatever we needed from all of his camping gear to make sure we had the right necessary gear for our trip, and made the pick up and drop off as easy as could be. The sleeping beds were great for two adults and two kids and the van was super easy to drive up to Yosemite and back.
Would absolutely rent from him again.

I was really hesitant because it’s my first time renting a campervan. Mike was really helpful! He walked us through in every step. Definitely renting again! 10/10

The RV was so easy to get around in and Mike made it so easy. Was able to pick out our kitchen items and bedding before leaving. The RV was comfortable enough for 2 adults over 1 week. Would recommend anyone going to Sequoia or Yosemite to use this van.

Better than we even expected, perfect for a long weekend away and surprisingly comfortable. Great host who was very patient with us when we experienced multiple delays on our way back. Cannot recommend Mike and his wonderful service enough!

Mr. Mike was excellent from every aspect. Very professional, but also very friendly, provided us with more than enough things (extras) for our trip, besides good ideas and infromation. 10/10 all the way, highly recommended!!

Mike is very easy to work with. Communicates extremely well and answered all the questions we had leading up to our trip. He was able to provide all the camping gear necessary for our family of 4 to live out the van for four nights while we toured Sequoia, Kings Canyon and Yosemite National Parks.
