🌅The CoolBus’ rental “sunset” has arrived. As all vehicles go, the mileage has come to a point where we’ve decided to stop rentals in the CoolBus and utilize the remainder of its life for our little family (& friends). What an amazing experience this has been being able to share something we love and are so proud of with our community, which has allowed us to meet some of the most incredible humans from around the WORLD 🌎 . We know a couple of you have plans for big trips in the Bus in the coming months, rest assured you’re locked in!🔒And for our friends and annual visitors, you will surely be welcome to still utilize the van for any local adventures when not in use🙂
That said, Mark is really kicking around the idea of doing another build in a new van. We aren’t sure what that might look like yet, but all we know is that we’ve truly loved this experience and being able to provide access to all of what northern Michigan has to share. The thought of not keeping the rental business active already feels like it creates a void in our lives, so rather than a goodbye, this is more of a “see you later.” Thank you all who have given us such a special purpose and chose to spend your adventures with us. Stay tuned🙂🫶🏼
