About this RV

VANessa has the perfect balance of comforts and agility. The short wheelbase of the campervan makes driving a walk in the park. It can fit into any regular parking space while still giving you the luxuries of home on the go. Insulated with Thinsulate, VANessa gives you a sound night's sleep by regulating the temperature inside and blocking out noisy critters and humans. The van is purposely meant to mimic a work van by not having big cutout windows, decorations, and a sleek hidden, flexible solar panel setup for security and stealth camping. The bed is a full-size memory foam mattress with cozy linens and blankets. VANessa doesn't have bump-outs so the bed length is about 69" long. The interior height is 5'10" at the max. There is a garage area in the back for storing your outdoor toys and other essentials. A fork rack is installed to secure a bicycle. VANessa has great water pressure for hot outdoor showers and a .01 micron inline water filter for safe drinking water consumption. Also has a diesel heater for 4 season camping! I personally built it as a labor of love and put a lot of detail into making VANessa functional. I'm excited to share this space with you. She is ready for your next adventure and excited to make some awesome memories. What's included • freshly cleaned sheets and blankets • 2 ergonomic Kelty camp chairs w/mini table • plates, cutlery, cast iron cookware, cups, basic spices • French Press, frother, beans, grinder • Removable screen for side door • hot outdoor shower • 24-gallon freshwater tank • 2 burner propane stove • Dometic CFX 55L fridge w\ ice maker • 3 USB ports, 2 AC sockets • 200-watt solar system w/strong lithium battery enough to keep your electronics juiced • shore power plug for unlimited electricity • cabin heat Recommendations VANessa enjoys being deep in the woods, alone in a vast desert, propped next to a calm lake, taking in the sunset along the coast, and visiting our wonderful public lands. I have taken her all around Oregon and Washington, and a visit to Utah! Other things to note Everything works as it should with the systems in the van. There are specific instructions I will send to use certain features of the van or to troubleshoot should anything ever occur. Have peace of mind that the systems have not failed me so far! I am always available via phone to help if needed too. The van is Medium Height. Most suitable for people under 5'10" id say. Please take all precautions to mitigate any accidents as this is my personal van and not part of a company fleet. Thank You!

    Great chance to try out van life! My partner and I have been considering getting a transit and wanted to try it out first hand in Bobby’s build. The heater worked great and kept us super warm on a rainy, wet weekend at the beach. Bobby was incredibly helpful and chatted with us about his build, you can tell that it was well thought out and made with care. The short wheelbase was easy to drive around compared to an…

    The van was perfect for a week of exploring around the PNW! Having running water and a stove made us feel like we had a home on wheels. The bed was comfortable and we had plenty of blankets to keep us warm on the colder nights. Bobby was very communicative and easy to work with.

    Great trip! Easy to work with. Great instructions. Thank you!

  • Kristin L. · 5/5 · Aug 2024 · Outdoorsy

    We thoroughly enjoyed our week with VANessa! It was amazing to explore Oregon in the campervan. We had a great time and VANessa made it memorable. Bobby set up everything so well, and we appreciated their responsiveness to questions while on the road.
