Escape in a Campervan Rental

We had such an incredible experience with escape campervan! We are from Florida and decided to do a 12 day Seattle to San Francisco road trip. I personally researched so many companies offering van rentals but we landed on Escape. Support was so helpful in helping us select our van and add-one. We chose the mesa for its larger size and when we picked up the van and everything was immaculate. They showed us how things worked and within 15 min, we were on our way. We had zero issues with the van. The fridge stayed cool at all times, the bed was easy to put together and take apart. It truly was perfect. We dropped it off in San Francisco at the Milpitas location and the crew there was so cool. Christy checked us out and gave us additional information about promotions coming up. We are definitely booking another trip soon! Also, every location has a donation corner where things that are left over can be taken by new pick ups. I really like this because we were able to get some condiments, dish soap little things that you forget to buy at the store for your trip. We in return also donated a bunch of stuff for the next group of people that were picking up Vans. We saw so many other escape vans during our trip and I will admit that ours had the better art design and looked newer/fresher. So glad for that because I can be picky in that sense. Overall, this trip was absolutely amazing and we will definitely be renting another van for a longer period of time.

The proprietor was accommodating, informed and professional! The camper was in fact 20" or under for our campsites. I learned SO MUCH about the camper and what attributes we'll ask for next time. The bed was comfortable and the kitchen functioned well. We had three in back. They would not move -> one stuck partially reclined, and their seats backs did not fold down. The challenging part was being able to open and close the side door to get in and out of bed. The door that opens 1st and closes last is the furthest form the bed. The handle that opens that 1st door is closest to the front seat. We couldn't physically reach the door handles from the bed, and couldn't fit in the small space between the seats and the side doors. I had to rig up ropes to open and shut the door from thee bed edge. Red rope tied to the handle that opens the door and the other end looped around the middle back seat's headrest base. I tied the white rope to the door handle that closes the door, so one could reach to close the door when in bed.

Had an absolutely fantastic time over 10 days in my Maverick campervan! They are a perfect size, very well equipped, and offer a great way to explore the US. I found the whole process from booking, pick up and drop off to be breeze. I would absolutely recommend Escape Campervans to all types of road trippers!

The van overall was a great experience. We drove the mesa van. It was reliable, spacious and comfortable. The screen for the backup camera was tiny and often unhelpful when parking in tight spaces, which would be hard for a single traveler. The accessories like the lawn chairs and electric kits aren’t worth it unless you get it complimentary. They have a cabinet of donated items from other campers, which was incredibly helpful and eco-friendly. We would highly recommend to others and will be using them again for future camper van needs.

Thanks for this life adventure! We traveled with our Maverick for 15 days and drove for 1600 miles through forests and deserts, mountains and valleys… and it didn’t fail us! The equipment was perfect and very useful. The bed is comfortable enough and the portable shower really warm if exposed for enough time. The only little criticism we have regards the check-in and drop off times: you have only limited options and this can affect people coming from the other part of the world by airplane, as well as the plans for returning back from far distances. ! For Europeans: it is quite difficult to find a debit card which allows to pay so much money in one charge. We had to use three of them and one credit card. If it would possible to pay directly online would be better, but it is not possible. The staff is really helpful in finding solutions, but we were pretty nervous. And this even if we contacted our banks before saying we needed more “wiggle room” than usual. Some chip cards are also not working. Better Google or Apple Pay.
