About Chad Van Buren

Hello, We love to experience the life of camping. We are big sports enthusiasts, beach vacationer's and explorers of our warm weather climates. We have been camping and taking trips in different campers for over 15 years now. We have recently started taking our 3 yr old Golden Retriever, Scout, with us. She is spoiled. We never allowed pets into any our campers until now. We are getting soft in our older age, lol. We have 2 kids. Our son graduated from Missouri State University in 2022 and our daughter is a Sophomore at Mizzou. We have many favorite trips to visit Family in Buffalo, NY, Knoxville, TN, Florida and more. We have many trips to Football events, Our favorite weekend trip is Tailgating at many of the home games at both of our kids Universities. We have just recently begun using the Harvest Host and Boondocking app to stop and stay at many of the small businesses around our great country. Its a great platform to support each other. We plan on many more of those stops. I own a Swimming Pool and Hot Tub Service Company since 2006. We are super busy during the Spring, Summer and Fall months. Which most times, takes us away from our camping schedule. This is the purpose of us allowing others to enjoy our camper. We are hoping you stay and utilize our camper through this program. We know you will enjoy and relax as much as we do when we get the chance to camp.

GLAMPING is what you get with Chad!!! We are an avid outdoors family - do a lot of high adventure things. We probably have stayed at 15 Airbnb places including one previous camper in Colorado. NO ONE EVER has even come close to the hospitality, patience and support that Chad showed me and my family! His support, timeliness and expertise is without equal in our experience as renters. The camper was exceptional in every way! We were lacking for nothing: extra camp chairs and a portable fan were two that stand out. Two bedrooms and two bathrooms - top that for a camper!! Truly an outstanding experience for us at Lake Ozark State Park Campground. Fair fees, exceptional service, fast communication , and an extraordinary friendly family man who took exceptional care off us! Book with Chad!!

You all were fantastic to work with. Very happy you enjoyed the “glamping” experience at The Lake of the Ozarks State Park.
Thank You and see you at the next campground. 😊
