Meet Toad! He is an extra spacious, yet surprisingly nimble Ford Transit camper van who loves to take long trips through National Parks. Bring your bikes, climbing gear, and hiking poles to explore Montana.
When you enter from the side, you’ll find a cozy living area fully equipped with a propane stovetop, bench seat for two, 360* swivel passenger seat, a deep sink with 30 gallons of fresh water, and a refrigerator/freezer combo; yes, that means ice cream.

The lofted bed hosts a short-queen bed (situated longways for all the tall folks out there), two ventilation fans for the ultimate air flow, custom cabinetry for clothes and snacks, and a mega-garage to fit all that outdoor gear.

Speaking of the garage, it was purpose built to travel with bikes, but the heavy-duty sliding tray makes accessing gear of all kinds a breeze. Through the garage you’ll find an A/C power port, as well as access to our outdoor hose with ambient temp water, great for a quick rinse off after a long hike, bike cleaning, or paddle board break down.

If interested, we can send you a Vimeo link for a better look on the inside!

Exceptional communication & flexibility. Brooke and James are easy to work with, providing fast and accommodating communication. They even arranged a 1 am airport pickup for a guest amidst changing plans.

Drives smoothly like a pickup. Features a well-designed, off-grid layout with a superior refrigerator and is well-stocked. Guests appreciate its smooth, comfortable ride, noting it drives easily like a full-size pickup truck despite its size.

What’s nearby

Glacier National Park is an absolute must-visit while in Montana. Toad is able to make it up Going-to-the-Sun Road, but I highly recommend parking at the base and taking advantage the awesome bus tour that the park offers.

For a beautiful drive on your way north out of Missoula, it’s worth it use the Seeley-Swan corridor.

I am also able to offer specific recommendations on great, hidden-gem campsites tailored to your route once you book. Feel free to reach out with any questions!

Host rules

The van is a high roof AND extended-length, which means he is 22 feet long and way too tall to park in any parking garage. Please be mindful around tight corners, parking lots, and narrow streets. The van is capable of handling light gravel forest roads, but chunky gravel and major potholes should be avoided to not bottom out the vehicle. Additionally, please steer clear of fresh, sticky mud to avoid getting stuck (2WD).
Van must be returned with a full tank of gas. Otherwise, the cost of gas + $25 fee will be charged.
No smoking, $500 cleaning fee if you smoke in the van.
No festivals.
Sorry, no pets because one of us is very allergic.
