About Graham and Danielle Flaaten

Hi! We're Graham & Danielle. Together we own and operate a small Camper van business. Graham has been in the campervan industry for over 8 years; renovating, selling, and renting his camper van projects. In 2022 we spent half the year exploring Canada in one of our vans - it was fantastic! We are both passionate about van life and want everyone who is interested to have as great of an experience as us.

Memories made on trips with Graham and Danielle Flaaten's RVs

We rented Phoebe to go birdwatching during the fall migration in Saskatchewan ( October.) Many campgrounds were open but had no water or power. The van was superbly equipped for off-grid camping with its own toilet and plentiful water, the kitchen was amply stocked with all the cooking utensils we needed to produce daily simple meals, and the solar roof kept the fridge, inside lights and our devices charged and working. We weathered a big windstorm, and nights down to minus 6 in comfort. The van was 100% reliable mechanically and our hosts were generous, great communicators and thoughtful in their van design.

Thank you Graham and Danielle for renting us your camper van and for being so enjoyable to deal with. The van performed just as we had hoped and allowed us to enjoy seeing places in Alberta’s national parks that we hadn’t visited before. It was a five-star experience for sure!

Graham and Danielle were great hosts. We valued renting our van from an independent company who cared about our experience - the van was well kitted out, plus they gave us some spare camping gas and would renumerate for van camping additions if appropriate. They gave us a great intro to the van, answering our questions and we used their helpful video as a reminder when emptying the loo. Leah was great on check out too. We found Phoebe very comfy to stay in, and would thoroughly recommend Phoebe, and Graham and Danielle as hosts too.

Hey Paul! Thanks for the review, we enjoyed hosting you and you're welcome back any time!

Graham and Danielle were the perfect hosts! They and were very accommodating and quick to respond to our messages. Not only were they flexible when it came to renting an additional night, they went the extra mile to make us feel comfortable and right at home on our first international trip. Maverick was well stocked with all the essentials and we can't imagine our trip any other way. We recommend them 110%.

Graham and Danielle’s answer

Thank you so much for the wonderful review! We’re thrilled to hear you had a great experience with Maverick. It was our pleasure to make your first international trip comfortable. Hope to see you again soon!

Perfect van for our trip through the Rockies! Nova had everything we could need for 2 weeks on the road camping, on both the warm summery days and the cooler ones! Would definitely rent again if we ever came back to Canada!

Graham and Danielle’s answer

We are so happy to hear Nova had everything you needed for a fantastic trip! Come back anytime!

Phoebe was the perfect way to explore the Canadian Rockies. We were able to visit many parts of Banff National Park and the Kananaskis Mountains. The van had all of the amenities to keep two comfortable.

Graham and Danielle’s answer

Thank you! We're so happy Phoebe was the perfect fit for your Rockies adventure. Glad you had a comfortable stay—hope to host you again soon!
