Welcome to Ranger — a clean, comfortable Forester that feels more like a personal RV than a typical rental. Designed for relaxed, confident travel, Ranger is easy to drive, fuel-efficient, and thoughtfully set up for California road trips, coastal drives, national parks, and weekend getaways.New addition to the BayCampr fleet for 2026!Built on the Mercedes Sprinter diesel chassis, Ranger delivers a smooth, quiet ride with excellent fuel efficiency and strong torque for hills. If you’ve never driven a Sprinter-based motorhome, you’ll be pleasantly surprised — it handles predictably and feels well-planted, even on winding roads or in tighter areas. On the highway, the ride remains composed and relaxed, even on hills and longer stretches.Once parked, the full-wall slide-out opens up the interior, creating a surprisingly spacious and comfortable living area. The layout works especially well for couples or small families who want room to relax without the stress of a large, intimidating rig.

We had a great experience renting from Russell. The RV drove well and worked well for our family trip, but what really stood out was Russell himself. We ran into an unexpected issue at the campground, and Russell went above and beyond to help us. He stayed in constant communication, worked through troubleshooting with me, contacted local resources, and ultimately arranged an excellent mobile RV technician who got us back up and running. He was even thinking through solutions late into the night and followed up afterward to make sure everything was taken care of. Things can occasionally come up with an RV, and having an owner who is responsive and genuinely invested in making sure you have a good trip makes a huge difference. Russell absolutely was that kind of host. We really appreciated the support and would happily rent from him again.

Baycampr was a great host. Importantly, the RV was really nice and helped make our family trip (2 adults, 2 kids; 11 & 16) excellent. The 2018 Diesel Mercedes chassis pulled strong, and the cabin was very quiet (way better than a cutaway-style Ford box). The queen-like bed was surprisingly comfortable. Just about everything on the rig worked fine for us (with the one exception of the tank level sensors weren't reliable, which the host is going to address). Definitely spring for the bike rack. Next time, I'd do the delivery option as well.

RV was clean and user friendly. Very easy to drive. Russell was a great host, gave a thorough orientation and the return was a piece of cake. I will definitely be getting this RV again.

Unapproved late returns are $50/hour, up to $250/day. Notifying BayCampr of a late return does not waive the fee. FUEL & PROPANE: Return fuel and propane at the same levels as received unless prepaid propane was purchased. Refueling is charged at market cost plus $40 labor. WASTE TANKS: Gray and black tanks must be returned emptied and flushed. Failure to do so results in a $125 service fee. CLEANING: The RV interior must be returned in reasonably clean condition.

Damage caused by contact with trees, branches, posts, curbs, or similar obstacles is not normal wear and may result in restoration charges, professional repair costs, or an insurance claim.

Frequently asked questions

Q.

Can I use my own insurance for an RV rental?

A.

Possibly! Some renters can use coverage from their existing auto insurance instead of purchasing a rental protection package, which can provide significant savings. Contact your insurer and ask if they can provide an RV rental insurance binder for the specific RV and rental dates. Coverage varies by insurer and policy. If your insurer can't provide qualifying coverage, rental protection options are available during booking.

Q.

What flexibility is available for pickup and drop-off?

A.

Standard pickup is between 1:00–4:00 PM on the departure day, and standard return is between 9:00 AM–12:00 PM on the return day. If you need additional flexibility, optional add-ons are available during booking for early pickup (9:00 AM–12:00 PM) and/or late return (1:00–4:00 PM). These options can be reserved for a small fee when availability allows. If you’re unsure what timing works best for your plans, feel free to reach out before booking — happy to help clarify.

Q.

Is this RV easy to drive and operate for first-time renters?

A.

Yes. Ranger is built on the Mercedes Sprinter diesel chassis and drives more like a tall SUV than a traditional RV. It’s smooth, quiet, and very manageable, even for first-time Class C renters. At just 25 feet long, it’s easy to park and fits in most campgrounds. I provide a detailed walkthrough at pickup, plus a simple orientation guide so you feel comfortable operating everything before you hit the road.

Q.

How do the electric, water and sewage hook up work while setting up at the campground?

A.

Hookups are straightforward and beginner-friendly. Ranger supports standard 30Amp campground connections for power, fresh water, and sewer. During pickup, I’ll walk you through how everything works, what connects where, and what you actually need to use depending on your campsite. If you’ve never done hookups before, no problem — most renters pick it up quickly and all supplies are provided.
