About Abbie's RV rentals
Hello! My name is Abbie. I am a Maine native that loves the outdoors. A few years ago I bought a van and lived in it full time while working in Bar Harbor, ME. Life has given me the chance to be able to share the vanlife experience with others! While it is not for everyone, it is always an adventure.

We had a great experience! The van is equipped with everything you need, and very easy to drive. Abbie was very helpful and easy to communicate with. Highly recommend.

Great trip. Host was available and willing to go above and beyond. Because I have a disability and cannot walk very far, I would change the pickup and drop-off point. Longterm parking at Bangor airport does not have shuttle service so it was a challenge walking the entire length of lot with two suitcases. The Van was comfy and easy to drive. Would definitely recommend host Abbie.

Perfect van for two! Simple, easy, and full of adventure! Visited Acadia and Mt Katahdin with no worries! Thank you Abbie for sharing the van life!

The layout of the van was very nice. Everything was tidy and well designed. We had everything we needed for our trip!
Loved being able to get around town and have fun adventures in the van.

Great vehicle, with more supplies and amenities than we initially expected. Would rent it again!

We absolutely adored our Vandolf experience. It was well equipped, clean and compact enough to easily navigate traffic and parking. Pick up and drop off was seamless and Abbie was very responsive. The only thing we didn't like was giving it back! Would 100% rent this van again :)

Vandalf was an absolute dream! Abbie was so sweet, extremely easy to communicate with, and has really stocked the van with everything you might want or need on a van trip. We just did five days with this van and everything went perfectly. Really couldn’t have been more comfortable. Beautiful sink for dishes or hand washing, two fans (always better than one!), easy-to-use lighting, the fridge/freezer was a huge luxury, did not feel cramped in the bed, and PLENTY of storage space underneath the bed too, for extra bags of clothing and/or camping gear, etc. We will miss our home away from home!!

Such a pleasure renting to you guys! Thank you for taking such good care of Vandalf.

We had a great time exploring Acadia National park in Abbie’s van. This was our first time using a camper van and Abbie was excellent in communicating the “how to” even with videos. The van is cozy and easy to maneuver.

My wife and I visited Bar Harbor, Maine and Halifax, Nova Scotia in Abbie's van for 7 days. We picked her van for its compactness and drivability. The van is tastefully set up and functional. The bed is large enough with complete set of beddings. The amenities are more than adequate and easy to operate. Abbie stocked the van with camping essentials, such as coffee grinder, camp chairs and, importantly, extra blankets for those cool fall nights.

Abbie was an amazing host and was so great to have as a resource throughout our trip to Maine. Our trip was for an elopement which Abbie went out of her way to help us celebrate by decorating the van for my wife and I. The van is gorgeous and exactly what we were hoping for during our trip. Would recommend to anyone wishing to enjoy their time in Maine.

This was our first time trying the ‘van life’ and we had a phenomenal time in Acadia. Vandalf was super spacious & comfy, easy to drive and had all the standard amenities and equipment needed for camping. Abbie was very responsive throughout and also flexible with check-in and check-out times. Would highly recommend to friends and family.

We are new to van camping, so we had NO IDEA what to expect. It was super easy and made our trip to Acadia so much fun. We loved having all our stuff “with us” all the time…no need to go back to the hotel to change clothes for the next activity. We would just go back to the parking area to have a snack or another cup of coffee, refill the water bottles, etc and then head out again for another hike or activity without leaving the park. And because it is petite compared to other RVs and campers, it was very easy to drive and park…no problems at all. We would definitely do this again!
