Want to take your family with you on van life adventures? Yes, there ARE campervans that sleep four. Check them out!
Class B RVs and converted camper vans are easy to drive, compact, and fuel efficient, but they aren’t super spacious. Many popular designs are only suitable to sleep two people. Yet, there are lots of van lifers traveling with their families (or best buds) on them out there.
You don’t need a ginormous Class A RV with the latest gear installed to set off on the adventure of a lifetime. Don’t forget that you can spend much of your time outdoors in mild climates. Plus a solid awning can triple the size of your living room. We’re confident you can find the perfect layout for your needs and budget, even if it means making a few compromises.

15) DIY Conversion With Two Double Beds
The Sanchez family have converted their van to fit their four kids and dog. They liked the idea of sleeping at the back on a platform bed, so they simply built two on top of each other. They spend the day in the front of the van and the night in the back. Simple but effective.
16) DIY Camper Van That Sleeps 5
