Just like her pal Ollie, Dakoda has a galley kitchen at the rear and a lounge/bedroom at the front, so you can easily stroll from one end to the other. When it's time to chill, slide open the side door, recline in her comfy seating area, or walk to the back to whip up a snack! Yep, Dakoda has a 2-hob burner, fridge-freezer, and handy pull-out drawers stocked with everything you need. If dining under the sky is your thing, Dakoda’s got a fold-out table and chairs.
Setting up for a good night's sleep is super straightforward in Dakoda. Simply flatten the sofa, add a squab kitchen-side, and you have your bottom double bed! The top bed slides out just as easily, and can be climbed up onto with the help of two little footholds. Just the two of you? Enjoy the luxury of the extra upstairs storage space.
Say yes to summer adventure and book Dakoda now!

About the Campervan
Location: Dakoda lives in Ohoka, north of Christchurch approx. 20km (20 mins drive) from both Christchurch airport and the CBD. If you’re driving your own car, it can be safely parked off-road while you’re away.
In The Cab: 3 seats in cab up front (three-point seat belts apart from centre seat with lap belt); radio, bluetooth connection and aux cable.
Kitchen Area: Lovely galley kitchen in the rear of the van with built-in 2-burner stove and sink with electric pump tap… and fridge with freezer compartment. Dakoda also comes with all the essential utensils, pots, pans, knives, crockery and cutlery etc. There is also a roof vent to encourage good airflow through the van.
Dining/Living/Sleeping Area: Dakoda has an internal height of 1.91m – so standing room for virtually everyone! Dakoda has a pull-out bed which goes from folded seating to a comfortable bed measuring 135cm wide by 190cm long… about the size of a standard double bed. Then there’s the upper bunk (137cm x 210cm) that can sleep a further two people. To eat or play, fix in the removeable table and if you prefer al fresco dining, use the folding table at the rear. Dakoda has beautiful thick curtains to ensure a good night’s sleep. Note: we list bedding and towels as Extras at the booking stage in case guests prefer to bring their own. There is plenty of storage space in unit above the sink as well as over the cab.
Water Facilities: Like all Quirky Campers in NZ, Dakoda is certified self-contained. There are 40 litre fresh and grey water tanks and the fixed toilet is stored under the rear bench seat and can be pulled out for use as needed.
Electrical/Lighting and Audio Equipment: Dakoda has a leisure battery charged via a solar panel on the roof and by the engine when driving which powers the LED lights and USB sockets for charging devices. She also has a 240v hook-up and campground power cable.
Conversion Story: This time round, it’s a mum and daughter collaboration! We’ve both converted many vans before (and between us also have Cruzar, Roxy and Ollie in the Quirky family). Dakoda was purchased as campervan but we’ve made lots of changes to give her character. We hope she provides guests with amazing memories! – Ashleigh & Brenda
