[leadin]It’s 4:30 a.m. My alarm jars me awake in a darkened tent. Time to get up and sort through a complex pile of gear for a day of hunting high in the Rocky Mountains.[/leadin]
Fortunately, I’m in a massive canvas tent. Shared with my two hunting buddies, it’s as spacious and comfortable as a hotel room and makes base camp life comfortable so we could focus on the mission at hand.

Who Should Buy It
- Hunters and anglers: If you’re objective is in the field, but you want a good base camp for any weather, this tent should do the job for six adults or so comfortably.
- Glampers: Good grief I hate this word, but it sure does describe the “glamourous camping” that has grown in popularity. If you want a queen size bed in the woods, this will house it nicely and has a great, civilized ambiance.
- Festivals: The brand says music festivals regularly buy the tents to rent out to festival-goers. If you need to house 10 mud-covered revelers, it would be perfect.
- Airbnb: Stick it up in your backyard or put a few on your back 40, decorate them nicely, add a cozy bed, and rent them out for $50 a night. These could bring in regular business for years.
- Family campers: This could be a bit of a stretch, but if you want to set up a camp for a week or more, this is a good option and provides significant shelter compared with most family tents.
