Our story

Meet The Countess

Our 1969 Streamline RV, The Countess, has been completely remodeled from top to bottom — midcentury style, turquoise appliances, comfortable beds and everything you need for a memorable getaway.

She's parked on a forested one-acre lot on a quiet dead-end country road, with a fire pit and a covered picnic area, just a few minutes from downtown Van.

“All the fun of RV glamping with none of the exhausting travel or frustrating campsite setup.” — Jason & Liz Hartong
