About Van.Hof.Wagons - Passenger Van & Campervan Rentals, Des Moines
When I was young, my Grandpa Van Hofwegen loved traveling. He was a trucker, and had a hobby of building campers. He used to refer to any adventure in life as a “memory maker”. I loved camping when young, and still do. Now, through Van.Hof.Wagons, our family gets to share the fun with you, too. We’ve assembled a fleet of easy to use and drive campervans that even a novice can handle. Road worthy and nimble, they make sure that your time away will be occupied with the outdoors and campfires rather than equipment concerns. Discover the great outdoors in our Van.Hof.Wagon "Memory Makers"! Daniel Van Hofwegen

This is a passenger van with 13 seats including the driver's, and a large cargo area in the back without any problems to hold all the passengers' luggage. Perfect for us. The van is clean and runs great. The host is nice and easy-going. Just a reminder, if you don't want to pay a cleaning fee, you'd better wash the outside after use. Also, don't forget to bring your own cell phone holder.

This van ran well and air conditioning was great throughout the van! Perfect way to take 5 or more passengers on a long trip--plenty of leg room and captains chairs are very comfortable! The only things stopped me from rating 5 stars were the exterior(few rust spots) and interior carpet is old and worn. Still, a good deal for only $99/night compared to newer models!

Good trip, especially since it was my first time with and camper van. The RV fit my family of 4 well. The check-in and check-out process was easy, all of my questions were answered and I was well prepared. Everything worked well and it thankfully kept us warm in below freezing temperatures. We had to make do without the attached grey water tank though, so be prepared for that unless it gets fixed. Would rent from him again though, it was overall a good experience.

This was a mixed experience. The Westy4 we rented was a 2005 model. The Mercedes Diesel is a strong reliable beast. But details of the Westphalia conversion showed their age.

Daniel Van Hofwegen rented us a vehicle for a cross country trip through the mountains that was not capable of the trip - the "Westy3". Beware. The vehicles engine lost power in the Colorado mountains (day 4 of a planned 16 day rental) and from that point on operated at low power for the rest of our rental and was otherwise unavailable for use (in the shop) for a total of 8 of the 16 days of our rental and he has not returned prorated rental fees as of November 16th. We eventually deduced that this vehicle was new to him (purchased used) when we rented it, had non-functional features (A/C & generator), and had no license plate (it was registered and he dropped the temporary permit behind the refrigerator). We bent over backwards to assist Daniel in getting the vehicle to repair shops that he selected and endured the stress that comes with being dependent on a vehicle that was not operating properly, wondering if we would be stranded. We ultimately terminated the rental (at his advice) 2 days early as the vehicle was not fixed for our planned return trip.

Daniel was super helpful and always available. There was a malfunction in the electric on the second night, but with the warmer weather it was fine. All in all it was a great adventure and I recommend it!

Seamless transaction. Unit on great shape, towed easily behind my Chev pickup. Everything work just fine. Generator rental suggested - I used my CPAP without fear of running battery down.
Would rent again from Daniel - great guy and easy to deal with. Scamp unit easy and uncomplicated to use.

Rented the rv from Friday to Monday. Drove 4 hours away. The rv was easy to drive and everything in it worked. It was perfect for two people to stay in. I made the reservation online and the next day Daniel contacted me to see if i have any questions. Picking up and returning the rv was easy.
They were very accommodating and answered all the questions I had. I would definitely recommend renting from them!.
