FAMILY TENTS FOR CAMPING
DETAILS:
Family tents usually
sleep 4 or more people and come in two major styles,
Cabin and Dome. Cabin style tents offer the easiest
in and out access. Their near-vertical walls create
much more livable space. Some models come with
features such as room dividers and an awning.
Dome-style tents offer superior strength and
wind-shedding abilities. They stand tall, but their
walls have more of a slope which slightly reduces
livable space.

HIKING AND BACKPACKING TENTS
DETAILS:
Hiking and Backpacking tents have a few things in
common. First they are designed to be light weight
and snug fitting. Unless you are very close to your
hiking companion you may want to choose a 3 person
tent. Their design is not to require stakes which
makes it easier to relocate within your campsite.

CHILDREN TENTS FOR CAMPING
DETAILS:
Children tents are really
play tents. They are not designed for the outdoor
harsh climate. If you want a separate tent for the
children while camping choose a small 1 to 2 person
dome tent. Most children tents are designed for the
indoor play area.

DINING AND TENT ENCLOSURES
DETAILS:
Dining and tent
enclosures are not designed for sleeping but more
for dining or sitting outside. Models with screens
are great for keeping the bugs away. Smaller tent
enclosures are great for a private shower or toilet.
Since most don't come with a floor you may want to
use a tarp for the floor.
