Bessie is full with everything you need to get your journey on the road started! Built uniquely by my father and I, we put in a shower with a cassette toilet without having to lose storage space! With a 30g water tank inside the van you won’t ever have to worry about running out. Induction stove top is permanently in place but if you want to use the blender or a hot tool you definitely can with the inverter powered by solar and battery! Want to have lunch at the dining table? Table is just under the bed but don’t worry I’ll show how quick and easy it is to set up!Bessie is a MID-Roof transit, please keep this in mind when booking. Max height where you can comfortably stand in the van is 5’ 9”. For reference I am 5’ 1”What's included2 camping chairs

RecommendationsThere are many must-dos in Colorado and surrounding areas, but these are my personal favorites such as Rocky Mountain National Park and Estes Park. Grand Junction has many wonderful Wineries. Enjoy this classic small town named Leadville and be one of the few to make an appointment at Melanzana for the perfect hiking hoodie.
Other things to noteThis camper van is my home, please treat it as if it is yours.
No smoking of any kind is allowed in the van as well no pets that were not introduced to me at check in.
No 4x4 roads, please use all app suggestions and take best judgement when driving Bessie.
Have fun and get to experience what it’s like to live in a van!

Responsive, supportive, flexible host

Maia is consistently praised for being communicative, kind, and responsive. She offers trip planning help, detailed van walkthroughs, and flexibility with pick-up/drop-off. She even provided snacks and drinks, and quickly resolved a flat tire issue.

Drives effortlessly in all conditions

Bessie is consistently praised for driving smoothly and handling well on various terrains and distances (1000+ miles, mountains, snow). Its thoughtfully designed, customized interior offers off-grid capabilities including solar power, a shower, toilet, and a very comfortable, convertible bed.

We had a great experience with Maia's camper van. It drives super well and handled our 1000+ mile trip with ease. We took it to the beach, the mountains, the woods, through the rain and snow; nothing this van can't handle! The customized interior is 10/10 and has everything you need and more. We would 100% rent this van again for any camping road trip. Maia was also a fantastic host. She was super kind, very responsive, and told us everything we needed to know about the van.

Bessie was so great! It was perfect for our week long trip around the state for my husband and I. The bed was very comfortable, and even for a hot summer we managed to stay cool without A/C. Bessie had a lot of great small touches that made for a great first van life experience. Maia was also very sweet to talk to and communicative.

I'm Maia an Arizona native that thrives off of scuba diving, snowboarding and surfing! I bought my Van in 2020 and spent a year and a half building it out with my awesome father while also working as a flight attendant. I now have moved to Denver, CO for my job as a FA and have been exploring Colorado as well as the states surrounding it on my days off. I am very familiar with west coast if you need any suggestions and tips on where to stay! Happy traveling!
