Outdoorsy review

Outdoorsy is the strongest marketplace pick for choice. Its homepage shows thousands of local rentals, including 2,834 in Los Angeles and 6,292 across California, and a camper van filter sits next to trailers and motorhomes. Because private owners set nightly rates, prices range widely, and its national park pages list rentals from $45 a night. The cost to watch is the service fee: Outdoorsy's fee page says up to 20% is charged to the renter on each booking, separate from the 20% to 25% fee owners pay. That makes the headline nightly rate less useful than the checkout total, so compare the final price, not the listing card. Rules on mileage, generator use, cleaning and cancellations differ by owner, and so do vehicle age and upkeep. It is the right site when you want a van in a town that fleet companies do not serve, or a specific layout.
