Hi my name is Michael or Mick for short. I am fairly new to the camping world. I started off with a swag and in September 2024 I upgraded to an off-grid camper trailer. I want to share my passion and enthusiasm for camping and exploring our beautiful country.

Third Time Renting Hector Still Outstanding! This was our third time renting Hector the camper trailer, and once again everything was absolutely fantastic. The trailer is incredibly easy to tow and so comfortable to sleep in it really makes camping feel effortless and relaxed. Michael is always such a pleasure to deal with: friendly, responsive, and genuinely cares that you have a great experience. Hes also put so much thought into upgrading Hector virtually instant hot water, the ability to charge 240V appliances, and excellent solar power. We were completely off-grid all week without a single issue. Its clear how well cared for and thoughtfully set up this camper is. Reliable, comfortable, and stress-free every time. We wouldnt look anywhere else and cant recommend Michael and Hector highly enough!

Great van to tow, had no issues towing it behind our stock hybrid Cannon Alpha to cathedrals on fraser island. Stairs made accessing the tent much easier than a ladder. The water lasted us 3 days and nights with a little to spare.

Amazing! This was camping in style for us..We were in locations with no power or running water so having solar power, hot water, lights and a hot shower made it luxurious. Mike was great with his communications, videos showing how to setup and take down things. The van was in excellent condition and very clean with so many extras like the bbq, hot shower, cleaning products etc The wrap around awning provided so much shade and the bed was very comfortable. I'd highly recommend this van!

Mick was so helpful from the onset through the handover and return process. Hector towed like an absolute dream. The trailer had everything we needed for our off grid adventure. I will definitely be renting Hector from Mick again.

Another Incredible Experience Even Better the Second Time! This was our second time hiring Hector the Hardkorr camper trailer, and once again it was absolutely fantastic. Michael continues to be an exceptional hostefficient, thoughtful, and genuinely caring throughout the whole rental process. Everything was just as spotless, reliable, and well-equipped as we remembered. It honestly felt like picking up a brand-new trailer again. This time we towed the trailer ourselves, and it was surprisingly easy and handled beautifully on the road. Setup and pack down were a breeze (even easier this time!), thanks to Michaels clear instructions and the smart layout of the camper. The rooftop area was super comfortable, and the whole setup made our camping trip feel effortless and enjoyable. Were already planning to hire from Michael again. If youre looking for a compact, functional, and extremely well-maintained camper with a host who goes above and beyond every timelook no further. Thanks again, Michael, for another brilliant trip!

Hector had everything you needed and more. Absolutely loved it and if I need to go off-grid this van is perfect.

HECTOR made our camping experience very easy. Loads of storage space. All accessories were provided and good quality. We are experienced campers and couldnt think of anything else we could have used over our trip. Bed was comfy. Light to tow and Mick made the whole hiring process easy. Very thorough handover. Would definitely take Hector out again on another trip.

This was the perfect camper trailer for my off-grid holiday. Michael had included the dual zone fridge and installed an electric hot water system, which performed perfectly...no messing around with gas systems. The upgrades Michael has made to the camper made it a dream to use, and I cannot thank him enough for enabling what was a bucket list trip for me.

What an awesome camper Hector was. Michael the owner has thought of everything. It is literally an Air BNB on wheels. Tows brilliantly. Super comfy mattress, great hot shower, plenty of room under the pull out awning to shelter from the weather. Honestly, couldn't fault it. Michael made the booking process a breeze and the handover was very informative. Highly recommend this. Will def hire Hecktor again!!

We absolutely loved Hector! Mick was brilliant to communicate with and the camper had everything you could possibly need for a great trip away! The bed was super comfy, the kitchen set up was brilliant with more space than the caravan we used to own, had Including the basic pantry with oil, spices, paper towel, foil etc made camping a breeze!! We loved the Ziggy bbq and used the included tent for our kids which worked perfectly! A very comfortable 4 nights away for our family of 2 adults, 2 kids!! We travelled the country in a full sized caravan and very much enjoyed the simple experience with Hector, we cant wait to take him out again!!
