You guys think a simple cot would fit in there? I want to camp in it occasionally. Zip in floor options on this model?

You may want to check the actual dimensions of this blind but they state 75" of space so if you have a cot around 6' or less you are probably OK. It may however, be tight. With regard to a zip in floor, there is no option with this model and you are probably not going to find many blinds with that option. This is however, a very good blind for the money as I have had several of this model.

I'm not sure what a simple cot is, but standard length is almost 6 feet. You will not be able to fully stretch out horizontally in this blind. To answer your question, no, you will not be able to sleep horizontally in this blind. It is a sitting blind.

A small to mid size cot would fit but I'm not sure bout a zip in floor option. I didn't see one in mine or Persue the option

No a cot will not work and there are no floor zip/tie downs.... There are anchor stakes u could use as floor zips. This model has no flooring.

You could put a twin matress down there. We actually had a loveseat under ours for a while. It just barely fit, but it was out of the way!

I personally found it a little tight with 2 adults, especially with big, winter sleeping bags. Also, with 2 people the inside tends to build moisture on the tent material which you may find annoying.

I would suggest to either not hanging it so high up or having a ladder. I haven't had th luxery yet of camping in mine but that's th way I would go. I've thought about bringing a ladder.

while the cot supports adult weight (and is quite comfortable as is) I think a twin mattress would be a clumsy fit and too heavy. Camp cots are low to the ground and not very wide. A more conventional choice for the height and width I think you're looking for would be a roll-away bed in my opinion.

The frame is not bad. Just a couple of wingnuts. The matress would be a bigger hassle in my opinion. I'd go with a rollaway couch or futon unless you want to put into storage when not in use.

Yes, the cot seems too short. We tried to use it for a five year old, feet hung over so it was too the floor.

I would take it, but remember it does weigh 8.5 lbs...it surely more comfortable than a hotel cot and of course cleaner...don't forget to take crib sheets with...I would stand it up by a wall when not using it to save space...alto it's very easy to inflat or deflat...

I don't own this pack. I would suggest hanging the sleeping bag below (or strapping it above) the pack. The long poles for the tent can easily be put on the outside of the pack using the straps. So even if it does not fit properly inside, you can always strap stuff to it and generally that is what I do to preserve internal space.

Absolutely! That's how we set ours up. The matress sits on floor underneath the top one just like a bunk bed. There's still floor space to play where tent extends out.

I have a king size and I definitely wouldn't consider it for camping. If you get a smaller one, then maybe...Even then, I think it would be difficult. Unless of course you have an RV and just want to store somewhere in there till needed. You might be able to get a single size folded up and stuffed into a really big plastic bag that air gets sucked out if. If they even make them that big.

It'd be a snug fit I imagine lengthwise, and I'm not sure what that would do for the tents longevity though. I own the cot and the tent and if you want to use the tent on the cot be forewarned that the rain fly that comes with the tent does not hang over the sides of the cot, causing rain to pool onto the cot when it rains. Personally, I'd use the pad under the tent, as it was intended and use my Teton sleeping bag inside the tent.

All I know is that a standard twin mattress will fit inside of it. We love the tent!

I don't think there would be enough room for you and your pack and boots. This tent has a footprint about as big as a standard sleeping pad or cot. You could fit a few personal items in with you but it's pretty tight, especially if you need to use the rain fly.

It has rubber caps on the legs, but 2 of the caps keep falling off mine. If you can figure out a way to keep the caps on, and don't move the cot when there is weight on it, your tent floor should be fine. If you are still worried, cut an X-slit in 6 tennis balls, and stick them on the feet. Like people do for walkers. :)

You should deflate the air mattress first. There'd be no way to store it + the mattress, and I would be concerned about the mattress getting caught in a pinch-point when you folded the cot and then springing a leak.

it would be fine inside. I think it might be too small for 3 kids. We had a 10 and 11 yr old in it and they had very little extra room, but that was campground camping with lots of mats and sleeping bags.
