About GearLocker

We are a family-run business in Grand Rapids, MI that offers premium outdoor gear rentals. Our mission is to encourage adventure and lower the barrier to the outdoors.

Our family loves the outdoors and understands the value of quality, reliable gear. From the Porcupines to the Rockies, Smokies to Pictured Rocks, we’ve spent years testing tents, packs, stoves, chairs, and everything in between. We bring that knowledge and experience to you to offer top-rated gear from trusted brands like Marmot, Kelty, GSI Outdoors and more at a fraction of the cost to own.

We hope to be part of your next adventure soon!

These guys were amazing and very easy to use. You just select the equipment you need and when you need it by and they're on it! Will definitely use again in the future. They have a wide selection of camping equipment for use. Very useful to a person like me who only goes camping a few times a year and I didn't want to invest in all that equipment/gear.

Thank you so much for the jetboil. Our wood stove was not yet inspected so we had no other way to hear water on our winter glamping adventure. We made ramen and hot chocolate!Thanks again- can’t want to rent more in the future.

I wish backcountry campgrounds made it this easy to book. The rental, pickup and drop off were great. The gear was perfect. I definitely recommend.

I rented the bundle with the pack, sleeping pad, sleeping bag, cook stove, and headlamp. The gear was all in fantastic shape and worked great for my 3 day trip. The owner Eric was really nice. He took the time to show me the equipment and how to use it etc. The price I paid for the high quality gear was extremely reasonable, and he was very flexible on pickup / drop off. I will definitely use GearLocker again!

Outstanding! Gear was in excellent condition and did not leak during a rain storm. Instruction manuals were provided. Eric was communicative and flexible in arranging pick up and drop off time. 10/10 would rent again!

Top-quality camping gear. We will be a repeat customer with GearLocker for sure. If you are not a regular camper, I would consider renting with GearLocker. Eric was great and made the pick-up and drop-off process very easy.
