We had a great time staying in the van and the surfer camp is in a great spot within walking distance to an amazing sushi / japanese food truck. Definitely read the description to know what you're getting - the outdoor shower, the outhouse / toilet, the shared kitchen. Van was thoughtfully furnished and equipped with lots of storage space, mini fridge, two fans, etc. It is probably too small for tall folks - at 5'4" I still had to crouch inside. Great way to experience the North Shore!
