My hammock is 13 feet long. Is it too long for this stand?

Nope. I had bought a 13' hammock and used this stand. The hammock will stretch a little with its first use. With my 13' hammock I had to hang it from the chains. Then go higher on the links. I finally got it to the rings on the hammock and it's perfect. Great stand!

You would have to lengthen any chain you have for it. It is 180 inches from "hook to hook". I am using 20 inches of chain at each end for my Pawley Island 17' double and slack it up about 6-10 inches as it stretches out from storage. That said it would work for the 12' hammock but you need 180-144 = 36/s 18 inches of chain split between the two ends. I would go with 20 inches of chain to be safe. You can always hook farther up the chain, but can't hook to "air" :)

This stand does not support a two person hammock as advertised. A two person hammock will be on the rings with no opportunity to tighten....it will be on the final link and still dragging the ground. Buy a fifteen foot.

My hammock is for one person and the length is around 9'. The ends do not reach the two hooks of the stand but i bought two 6" chain links and 4 fasteners from Home Depot and they work perfectly!

My stand is 11 ft 10 in long. I had to wrap the chain around once on each end and then hook them to get the hammock off the ground to proper height. My wife loves the color red so she says it's perfect, but 10 ft 10 in long I am not sure if that will work?

It might be a little too long for that.But any secure hook will work otherwise. It kinda stretches down as you lay in it so u might be close to the floor with a C frame. Otherwise, this hammock is really great and durable. We suspend it from our upstairs balcony.

My stand is 12 feet and I had to tie knots in each end to take up some slack. I'd say that 15 ft would be good. It's beautiful and I'm happy with it. - Oregon R

It would certainly fit within a 15 foot distance... Ours is hung between a post and a wall that are 15 feet apart... But, I'm not sure the hammock stand would be tall enough to keep you off the ground. It does sag a good bit in the center.

No. The stand is extra. We've got ours tied between 2 oak trees. We've really enjoyed it and the hammock is holding up very well.

There are a number of styles of hammock stands. Because my hammock travels with me I use a tripod style stand with extendable legs, rubber tipped feet and tie-down pegs. It collapses down and fits into a carrying case for easy travel. I'd probably use a C-style stand if I wanted a more permanent installation.

I use a hammock stand which has a chain with hooks to hook the hammock to the stand. It's adjustable to whatever height you want it to be.

Mine was 12 ft I think, and it's stretched to the max. It's made of criss crossed cords though, which stretch quite a bit, I don't know if fabric behaves the same way. The two diagonal bars actually have some wiggle room so they will move towards each other when the hammock pulls on them.

The hammock that came with the stand is approx 9 feet 8 inches. We also had our own Hammmock that my husband brought back from the Dominican republic but he actually like this Hammmock better.

My hammock is a double wide and twelve feet in length and the 12 foot hammock stand works fine.

I also ordered mine for a 12 foot hammock. it was too large also. It appears that this hammock is made exactly 12 feet long which gives no room for stretch. I bet it would fit a 13-16 foot frame.

My Colombian hammock is 11 ft. from end to end and it fits perfectly. The actual cloth part is only 7.5 feet, though. I have about 13 inches on each end over the U shaped holders that is attached to the hooks underneath. There are lots of adjustments for attaching the ends. How long is the actual cloth part of your hammock? I think I could help you better if I knew that.

Our hammock is put away right now, so I could not say for sure, but I think it's the stand that is 11 ft.
