Elvis
Overview
Throw back to the 70’s in “Elvis”, a beautifully restored & updated 1979 VW camper that sleeps 4.
**Elvis has a manual transmission**
We purchased Elvis after having great success with Sweet Pea. After successfully hosting an apartment with Airbnb, we decided to bring our same 5 star service to people looking for adventure along the beautiful New England Coast. From Mystic Seaport along Rhode Island’s beautiful beaches all along the Cape, we are convinced that “Elvis” will make for life long memories. The vehicle has an impeccably maintained drivetrain & a true pleasure to drive.
Imagine an earlier time rambling along sandy back roads discovering new stretches of beach & quaint spots for ice cream before heading back to the campground for a relaxing night in our spacious well appointed camper! This wonderful 1979 VW Camper was just Restored with all new custom cabinetry & updated mechanicals. “Elvis’ ‘ is a wonderful Bus that can sleep 4. It has a fully functioning brand new fridge/freezer. A sink is installed in the cabinet behind the driver’s seat. It has “off grid” power & Water giving you the ability to bring “Elvis” to even remote campgrounds!
What's Included
The bus comes with a beach awning, collapsible kitchen with a dual burner Coleman stove, folding table & chairs. Fresh linens, towels, toiletries all included with your rental. Everything you could need for a vacation along the New England Coast. All of this is included in the cost - no extra add-ons. Just bring your suitcase and good vibes!

“Elvis” has a RI State beach pass allowing for discounted parking at our state beaches.
Please keep in mind, this is a 43 year old vehicle which was underpowered, without power steering and other modern amenities. It does require someone with very recent experience driving a manual transmission!
