5.0The van was a joy to drive around, it's very practical and nicely made. Esther provided everything we needed for the weekend, it's truly off grid, only the solar was low because it was raining all weekend but the battery is big enough to carry on. Despite the compact size it is very comfortable ! Esther was communicative and helpful. Pick up and drop off was smooth.

5.0We had a great 3-night trip with this camper van! The van was very clean and the bed was extremely comfortable, which made for restful nights. The fridge was super handy—always on and very efficient with low power consumption. We used the induction stove twice and it worked perfectly. Even without full sun every day, the solar kept things going fine as long as we were mindful of usage. There was plenty of storage space for our gear, and the large water tank easily lasted us several days—we didn’t even get close to half empty. The van also drove smoothly, which made getting around easy. The Starlink add-on was excellent and worked exactly as we needed. Check-in and check-out were smooth, and the hosts communicated really well throughout. We also appreciated having all the kitchen equipment included, and it was nice that we could add on sheets and pillow covers so we didn’t have to pack our own. Our dog also loved the van, which made the trip even better! Overall, a really well-equipped van that made our trip super comfortable and stress-free!

5.0Our trip to Yosemite was fabulous, and we couldn't imagine it without this awesome van! Everything worked perfectly, it drove like a charm, and it was so nice having electricity without a loud generator. We loved the air conditioning as well; it was almost 100 degrees out! We feel so lucky to have found this gem of a rental, which made our trip. Highly recommend our hosts as well; communication was clear and easy. All in all, a fantastic experience!

Frequently asked questions
Q.
What about bridge tolls?
A.
The van is set up with our Bay Area FasTrak account, which covers electronic tolls on most bridges. Please keep track of your toll crossings. We can deduct the cost from your security deposit.
Q.
What about the solar power?
A.
Firefly's battery is charged mainly by solar panels and some through driving. There is no way to plug into shore power. If your camp spot is shaded or the weather is consistently cloudy, you may need to be careful with battery usage, but usually parking under direct sun will charge it right back up.
Q.
Can I bring bikes?
A.
There are front and back two-inch hitches. Küat - NV Base 2.0 bike rack available for rental.
Q.
What about linens and towels?
A.
The bed is equipped with a mattress cover, two pillows, and two comforters. If you're unable to bring your own sheets and towels, we can provide one set upon request as an add-on.
