About Eric Gunderson

We love getting outside to explore nature. The camper van is a great base camp for those ad-van-tures. You'll find us hiking, biking, and exploring Minnesota's State Parks (25 out of 87 visited). Happy travels!

Spent the week enjoying minnesota’s fall colors. Having the van was a game changer as it was chilly and rainy most everyday, so it was fantastic to have a cozy dry space to rest up in between adventures. We’re officially camper van enthusiasts now and can’t wait to get back out there in one!

We had been wanting to try a camper van out and this was the perfect trip for it! Eric's van had everything we needed. The little fridge worked great and the bed was comfy. It was easy to drive and set up and once set up with the awning and pop top was wonderful for a couple's weekend trip. We had flown so had absolutely no supplies but the van had all we needed, just a quick stop to the grocery store and we were all set. Would definitely rent it again!

Eric was responsive, accomodating and kind. The van was great for me and my 3 kiddos (13,10,8) to explore the north shore. Great bonding and memories!

We just completed a 3-day/2-night rental of the Pop Top Camper Van/E-250/Pleasure Way Traverse. We had a great experience. The vehicle itself is as good, if not better, than advertised. It's well equipped for adventure. It drives great. It's possible to drive to your site, and have your complete camp set-up in under 15 minutes. The lower bed unit with the memory foam topper is very comfortable. The owner made some nice upgrades to the rig, including a back-up camera and bluetooth integration. The rig has a 2" reciever and we added-on the hitch-mounted bike carrier. It was great having the van at the trailhead for pre and post-ride activities. The customer service was excellent. The owner pro-actively offered a modification to the pick-up and drop off times which really helped us max-out our short, but action-packed mini-vacation. We didn't use all of the van's amenties for this short trip (like the fridge, sink or heater). We cooked meals outside, but the second night we used the cook-top to boil water. During the pre-trip walk through, Eric provided concise training and operating instructions along with a few friendly tips. We added on the goal-zero portable power, which was great to have to re-charge our phones. The second night as an experiment, we modified our resevervation to take advantage of the full electric hook up. It wasn't an exceptionally hot night, but with access to full power, we used the small fan that's provided in combination with open and screened windows. The sleeping conditions were, pun intended, dreamy! We've been #vanlife curious. This was a great way to scratch that itch. I would not hesitate to rent this rig again in the future. Happy camping.

We rented Eric’s van for a quick camping trip to Father Hennepin State park with some friends who also have a camper. The van was perfect for us and was very spacious! Electric hookup was a breeze, the van had everything we needed and it all worked great. Eric’s communication was great and we felt well prepared for our first time with a camper van. We look forward to renting again!

The coordination with Eric was easy and he is very responsive and accommodating. It was our first time using a camping van since we have only done tent camping. We brought our dog and there was enough room for us and her crate. Despite the age of Sunny (the van) Eric has kept it in good shape but there are some signs of wear which we communicated to Eric.

A perfect van for a weekend getaway. My 5 and 8 year old loved sleeping in the pop up tent. The mini fridge and stove worked well. Eric was a great host!

This was our first experience with Outdoorsy and it was fabulous, due to Eric. He responded within minutes to questions/texts. He was more than accommodating (picked us up from the airport (even tracked our flight). Everything you could need was included— lovely bedding - including a down comforter, chairs, all the kitchen gear, etc. The refrigerator worked great…I was skeptical in the hot weather we had, but even when we were away from power for a couple of days, it stayed on and just as cold. Although it is an older van, Eric keeps it up very well. Super clean interior. And we loved the pop top. Our daughter slept up there and there is plenty of ventilation with the side screened windows. We really could not have had a better experience!

We had a great trip up to Duluth with the van! Eric was very communicative and flexible, and the van was in great condition with everything you need for an easy trip. I would highly recommend renting!
