Examples of Family Camping Tents with Vestibule
from:The amazing strides that have been made in camping tents designs over the past few years are incredible. Gone are the days of struggling with tent poles and poor construction. Now it is easy to find a good quality tent for a reasonable price designed for any size family and their needs. Tents are now made to accommodate groups from one to ten people comfortably. Special ventilation systems help to regulate the temperature and more waterproof materials are used for the outer shell of the tents. One feature camping experts highly recommend for families is to choose a family camping tent with vestibule. Vestibules are handy extra storage spaces built into many models. Some can be arranged to open into the rest of the tent providing more living space or act as a secure area to house hiking, fishing, and other camping gear.
One of the most popular family camping tents with vestibule is the Kelty Mantra series. This is the same company that is well known for its high quality backpacks and other camping essentials. In this series of tents, the vestibule is a whopping 30 sq. ft. The campers will have plenty of room to store their belongings in that. These tents are also easy to set up and come equipped with not one, but two front doors.
Also from the great people at Kelty is the Pavilion 6. It is another one of the family camping tents with vestibule. As its name implies, this tent can sleep 6 people and features over 6 feet of headroom. It definitely makes getting dressed in the morning easier. The tent pieces are conveniently color coded to make set up a breeze and the poles are pre bent to ensure an easy experience. Just like the Kelty backpacks, this tent is equipped with all kinds of pockets and storage spaces for all of the small items you need on your trip.
Welcome to your home away from home in the Bedouin 6 from Sierra Designs. This tent also can accommodate up to six adults and has 76 inches of headroom. A family would certainly be comfortable in this three season tent. Like the others, this is another one of the newer family camping tents with vestibule. This company specially treats their tents with Tent Guard to reduce mildew and help the material retain a fresh scent.
These are just a few of the possibilities with family camping tents with vestibules. A little research and watching out for those sales can yield a fantastic tent for those special camping trips with the family.
