Camping and Backpacking Equipment Rentals
Serving the Bay Area, San Jose, and Marin County

We offer a comprehensive selection of camping equipment rentals for backpacking and family car camping. Our rental gear is from top of the line manufacturers so you will have dependable gear and an enjoyable experience. We keep our rentals up to date and in great condition!

How to read the rental price sheet
We give FREE Pick-Up AND Return Days for all camping equipment rentals. For example, if you are picking up gear on a Friday and returning it on a Monday, you will be charged a 2 day rental rate. The prices you see in the 2 day column are for the entire time period (i.e. Friday to Monday), not a per day charge. Although not mandatory, we encourage everyone to make a rental reservation. Please be sure to read our rental policies.
