To make vanlife and outdoor exploration more accessible, Eddie Bauer has teamed up with camper van rental company Cabana to outfit five fully built out adventure vans with Eddie Bauer gear, offering adventure seekers in the Pacific Northwest a new way to camp in comfort—without investing thousands in new gear and a van of their own beforehand.
Based in Seattle, the Eddie Bauer x Cabana vans are available to rent for three to five days and come outfitted with a queen sized bed and linens, shower, toilet, slide out tailgate kitchen, and even Wifi for those of us who aren’t ready to go completely offline. The adventure vans come equipped with outdoors-ready gear like an Eddie Bauer x Stanley French Press as well as their softest oversized down throw to ensure that you are camping in comfort.
With the Eddie Bauer gear rental program, guests have the opportunity to customize their Cabana experience even further, without breaking the bank. You can rent from an assortment of top of the line technical gear and clothing to prepare you for whatever outdoor activity you’ve got planned.
Eddie Bauer rental apparel, bags, and footwear range from $5-20 per rental. They also have camping sets, which include all the basic essentials you need for a camping trip such as a tent, sleeping bag, cooler, chairs and a lantern.
As for the camper van itself, Cabana offers dynamic pricing, similar to hotels and airlines—meaning nightly rates vary depending on day of week and time of year, but always includes unlimited mileage and optional personalized trip planning. From seasoned campers to first timers, this program provides a perfect opportunity for outdoor enthusiasts to test new products—and a new lifestyle—before fully committing.
Cabana x Eddie Bauer has made it easier than ever to begin exploring the PNW.
