Do you ever have trouble fitting this on a campsite because of it's size?

We have taken this tent camping a few times and absolutely love it! I have tried to pay attention to the size of campsites when reserving them, but so far it has not been an issue. On our last trip the small room that sticks out from the side (making the "L" shape in the tent) was on a bit of a down hill slope, but that did not affect the stability of the rest of the tent and didn't turn out to be a problem. So far we haven't encountered any problems, but the tent would be difficult to set up on a small space that is clearly marked out (e.g. with railroad ties or some other barriers).

It does take up a bunch of space. but so far so good. There is plenty of room for an entry to leave your shoes, coats or whatever so you are able to keep the main room clean and free of clutter. it does take two people to put it up.

I got mine to fit, but it is very tight. You will need two people to stretch it across.

I would say yes, my husband is an avid car/tent camper and he was impressed with my fat max I bought for horse shows. He uses large plastic tool boxes and the only thing that won't fit are his pots and pans. When we camp, the site is set up like a Hilton, lol! :-)

I got the 86"X35", but if I had to choose over again, I'd get the bigger one. When I wanted to roll over, there just didn't seem like there was enough room. I'm 5'8" and about 150 lbs.This size was OK, but if you have the room in your sleeping bag, I'd get the bigger one. I am an inexperienced camper.

You cannot sit on a regular size camping or beach chair in this tent. Only two short legged chairs will fit to sit on.

it might fit over a small picnic table but would be a little tight, we put 2 camping chairs in ours and it fits comfortably.

It would provide sufficient padding, I think, but it is a bit cumbersome. If you are traveling in a vehicle where you have plenty of space, it probably would not be a problem. But if you are backpacking into your campsite, it would be too big to roll up and pack with you.

I have a Coleman Xtreme 50-Quart Wheeled Cooler and it fits with ample extra space. This float is huge when blown up, I could actually float in it if I wanted to.

I don't have it near me and haven't looked at it since Aug. but I remember it being around 20" x 3 1/2" x 3 1/3" If it's just for you using it, you may want a backpackers 1 person tent instead. this is heavy and big for a backpack. but that's just me.

I have a 12 foot Coleman Tent trailer and it worked well, there is just enough air leakage to keep from getting killed......

Yes.....but as Sonia said - it is not light. Would not want to be taking it in and out of the camper frequently.Of course, it has to fit in the first place. Check measurements.

It depends on your needs, not the tent. What weather are you using it in? What size are you? The only thing I'd really say about it is, it's not large enough for a double wide two person bag.

I just had to try lol. If you roll it up very tightly then fold in it half it fits. Only one though!

A Full size air mattress pretty much takes up the whole tent. I wouldn't want to camp in it with more than 3 people.

My experience has been that a tarp smaller than the tent footprint is better than one that's larger than the footprint. Place what tarp you have under the areas of the tent that will get more traffic/load

LOL I actually was thinking about the same thing for hot summer night camping. 1) the extending sections have those little values so I can't imagine getting water into them easily. 2) it will leak. 3) that is a lot of weight. If you are adventurous and have and extra $30 - try it and let us know. It is very comfortable as it is.

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.
