This van is great! Perfect setup with everything you could need and the sweetest host. Definitely recommend taking it out for a long weekend.
Helen's Sprinter was amazing! It was fully stocked and she was incredible to deal with. Super available to answer all questions and she sends a very detailed document with all the details. We had the best trip ever up the coast to Big Sur. Perfect trip during Covid as we camped and didn't see anyone. It's a special van fully stocked with everything you need. My only note: the van is deisel so just make sure you know where a close gas station is - there is not one in Big Sur.
So happy to have gotten you on a great adventure!! Will be sure to add Diesel spots to the map for sure :)

Great ride, great vibe. Helen’s Sprinter is the perfect van for 2. It has the perfect amount of space and accoutrements be it for overnights or a long days trip. Smooth drive and cozy, chill interior feels. Helen was great - so cheery and happy to help in all capacities. Super informative overview of van let me drive away in confidence.
Definitely renting this beauty again!
This was a really beautiful, clean, rental that I enjoyed for about a week as a mobile office. Helen was a wonderful host and I would highly recommend this vehicle and outdoorsy experience.
What an incredible experience. Helen has designed a van that was meant for creatives and wanderers. The beautiful details of the van itself are just as inspiring as the landscapes we drove through. Surrounded by beauty the entire trip, I couldn’t have imagined a better van to travel in. Thank you Helen for being so accommodating. I can tell hospitality comes natural to you because you thought of everything we could have needed, including some amazing travel recommendations. Absolutely recommend booking Helen’s van!!
