We had so much fun with Spud. We decided to rent a camper van for a friend's wedding we were in town for. Spud had everything we needed in it. Bri was so helpful and showed us everything we needed to know and answered all of our questions. Bri was responsive from the very beginning and accommodating of our travel schedule. As our first time staying in a van, it was easy to follow all of the instructions and operate all the systems. Not to mention the mattress was so comfy! We would definitely rent Spud again and are inspired to begin our own van adventures!

We had an amazing trip with SPUD! We started in Boise and went to the hot springs in Idaho City, took in a show at Garden Valley, Jet boat ride with Kilgore Adventure, rafting, and Route of the Hiawatha. If you are looking for adventure take SPUD with you! Bri and Quinn are amazing!

Quinn and Bri were great to work with. They were attentive to all of our needs leading up to and through the trip as well. Spud was clean, comfortable, and a perfect way to travel the area. We can’t recommend Spud enough for your next travels. Thanks again Quinn and Bri!

This was our first camping trip ever using an RV. My son and I went up the Ketchum and we found a great campground north in the sawtooth national forest. The trip was awesome. We had a great time from the get-go.

Spud has been our best outdoorsy experience yet!!! Bri and Quinn went over every detail about the van when we picked it up and we had zero issues during the trip. We boondocked up at Stanley Lake for three days, had plenty of water and I don't think the batteries ever dipped below 65% for the entire trip. Can't say enough about how great this trip with Spud was, we will be renting him again this year to finish out the season and can't wait!! If you are looking for a great van for the Idaho wilderness, you can't go wrong with Spud.
