Hi dear outdoor adventurers & earth roamers,Thank you so much for letting my Chariot to create unforgettable memories for you! I'm so excited for all the beautiful scenics to heal your heart and soul!Chariot was created to chase a wild dream of mine back in 2019 and she has brought me to the wildest dreams I could ever imagine after living full time in it for one year. Chariot used to be a rental cargo van before I stumbled upon her in October, 2019. Then piece by piece, wire by wire, my carpenter friend and I designed and built the basic structure. She went across the country 3 times after the built is done and have become something bigger than I expected. Over the years, my partner, Derek, and I slowly refine and upgrade everything to which of what you see now. That being said, we're still refining and upgrading her. She may not be the most perfectly designed camper van (yet), and she sure has all the charms which require you to take good care of while you're all on the road! But I promise, she's not high maintenance and would certainly make your journey a lot easier if you pay attention to her details :-)Chariot has taken us to 15+ national parks across the country along with our little black cat, miss mishi (please do let us know if you're allergic to cats, we will do an extra thorough cleaning to make sure you have a comfortable stay)! She has all the things you'd need to call it home. So all you need is your free spirited mind and suitcase! I can't wait to see what she will take you on for a magical journey of your own!What's included• One burner induction cooktop
• 2 small foldable camping chairs
• Polaroid instant camera with film
• Yoga mat
• Biodegradable soup for handwashing and showering - Dr. Bronner's
• Portable bluetooth speaker
• Stepping stool for easy in/out of the van
• Two extra 5 gallon water jugs for your off roading trip
RecommendationsCalifornia is beautiful everywhere you go. Let's chat so I can recommend what interests you the most (the towering Redwoods, Giant Sequoias, rugged coastline, sea urchin hunting, fishing, bird/animal watching, etc...)Other things to note1. A 40-60 minutes "walk-through" is needed when you're picking up. Please plan accordingly. "Walk-through" includes instructions of how to use the shower, how to change from bench/table mode to bed mode, and the rest of the general use of the van itself.
2. I support PLUR and am 420 friendly. But please be a responsible adult, do not DUI and just step outside of the van when you're smoking.

This was our first time renting a camper van and we feel so lucky to have found Charlotte and her Chariot! Charlotte is the most kind, helpful & communicative host who is excited to share her Chariot with you for your adventure! She gave us clear, detailed instructions for operating Chariot and its amenities. Charlotte also put together a comprehensive list of recommendations for places to visit, eat, and stay.
Charlotte’s answer

I love seeing all the photos from your adventure and am so happy to know that Chariot was being such a great host! Can't wait for you and Wayne to explore California again!!! Please come back soon! :-)

Charlotte is very committed to sharing her van with those seeking to enjoy a bit of the van life. She was super helpful and explaining the workings of the van and this made the experience really great. The van is exactly as advertised. It’s a wonderful rental, the best I’ve ever done.

Amaaazing experience that Alex and I had with Charlotte and her van. The van is beautiful. It has like the warmth of a home. It has everything you could need. The bed and the cover sheet are super comfy. Everything its on its place. Super clean and everything works like it should. The car runs great. All the amenities are awsome. IT HAS EVERYTHING YOU NEED.
Charlotte was helpful and gentle with every single situation we had. She gave us super clear instructions and she was always super quick answering. She gave us some recommendations on restaurants, places and "musts" for the city and for Yosemite.
Charlotte is a wedding photographer so that pictures she took from us are UNBELIEVABLE.
Charlotte become a friend because of her kindness and we had a very fun time with her too.
I leave some pics of the van and the wedding photographer's amazing work.
THANKS CHARLOTTE.
THANKS CHARIOT.

Q.What flexibility is available for picking up and dropping off the RV?
A.
We're usually very flexible since I work from home. So we'll try to be as accommodate as possible unless we're happened to be away.
Q.What if I drive through a toll?
A.
Your toll(s) will be collected after the trip and the payment will be deducted from the $500 deposit within 7 days.
Q.Are there any special tricks and tips that would help with operating the RV easily?
A.
Please make it a habit to always check and ensure all drawers are locked and all lose items are put away before hitting the road! It will help prevent damages and would ultimately make your trip much more enjoyable!
