About Jake Carter

My name is Yacoob (Jake)! I started out as a passionate outdoor enthusiast, with a heart that beats for the thrill of hiking, snowboarding, and everything nature has to offer. Fueled by this insatiable love for the outdoors, I embarked on a journey that would soon become a passion! It all began with a humble dream – crafting vans that perfectly melded with the rugged landscapes I adored. Building these vans for personal adventures, using sustainable materials, my creations caught the attention of fellow nature aficionados. Enthusiasm grew, as admiration turned into demand. Seeing the genuine appreciation for my work, I took a leap of faith and transformed a personal endeavor into a mission to share the beauty of the outdoors with the world. With unwavering commitment and a heartwarming desire to make outdoor exploration accessible to all, I now have took personal time to pour my heart and soul into crafting affordable vans that mirror the very essence of nature's splendor. Every build tells a story, a tale of passion, sustainability, and the unbreakable bond between humans and the great outdoors. I created Overland Camper Vans and soon joined the Outdoorsy community in an adventure that transcends boundaries, guided by a vision to inspire, empower, and embrace the call of the wild. Your journey awaits, as you step into a world where passion and purpose come together to create the ultimate outdoor experience.

This cute Winnie was perfect for our short trip to lake Billy. Host was great and flexible, it was stocked with blankets and necessities. Drives great and was super comfortable! Will definitely rent from them again!

AMAZING! 10/10 recommend staying in the Yeti. Really easy turnkey experience made it easy to fly in and get on the road. The van was beautiful, with the inside like-new. Loved the wood interior and cozy warm lighting, as well as the bed - made it a great refuge on chilly Oregon nights. Plenty of gear to make cooking easy (e.g., stove, propane, pots/pans, cutlery, etc.). Had a blast and was easier / felt a little safer than a tent! Will definitely book again if I'm back in Oregon.

Thanks so much for this sweet review!! if you’re ever back in the Northwest, we will be here for ya!

We had a great trip to the Oregon Coast in the Yeti! The van was clean, bed was comfortable and extra details including added lighting were amazing! We loved the stove and table set up out the back too. Jake was easy to communicate with and he provided flexible pick up and drop off which was very appreciated. We would definitely rent the Yeti again for a weekend trip!
