Wear your seatbelt when driving
All passengers must be belted while the vehicle is in motion. We are not responsible for any injuries that occur from renter negligence.

NO speeding
Obey all traffic signs and speeds at ALL times. You are driving property that is not yours with a plate that is not yours, respect that. You will be responsible for any and all tickets/citations.

NO illegal substances or underage use of legal substances
Absolutely no illegal substances, underage use of any legal substances.

NO getting onto the roof
This roof is not meant for lounging and there should be no roof access or attempts.

Be respectful of what you cook
We all know that some food can have a strong and lingering smell long after it is cooked. Out of respect for the next renters and hosts, please cook all strong smelling food outside of the rig during your stay. For Example: Bacon, Fish, Sauerkraut, etc.

Be respectful of the space
This space is special. We expect you to take care of the build and maintain a clean, damage free stay. Clean up after yourself and your pets, wipe up any spills immediately, and do your best to keep the space tidy.

NO electric heaters/air conditioners
These can be very dangerous and power consuming for a Campervan. If you need heat, it is best to use our built in heater and if you need to cool down, it is best to get a good airflow and park in the shade if possible.
