Tahoe Gear Ozark 3-Season 16 Person Large Family Cabin Tent

Finally got around to putting up tent. Very easy except for big poles. There are 6 slightly longer and 4 shorter with grey tape onward one end. However, that doesn't match to anything. We put one pole in wrong, tore the tent trying to get it into ring, that's why 4 stars. Got the poles right and sprayed a little dab of paint on connector and pole so we know where shorter ones go. Otherwise tent was super easy to set up. Very big, lot's of ventilation, seems real sturdy, just don't stretch it as hard as I did. I really pulled hard so partly my fault, just used to last tent that would take heroic effort to get poles into rings. This one is real easy, tight but wife could do them which she couldn't do at all with last tent, Eddie Bauer special from Coleman. Looking forward to next weekend, will try to post review after actual use. Took an hour with figuring poles and everything, figure now will take 15-20 minutes, great for a tent this size. Btw, put top poles in and connect to holders first, then put support poles in, very easy.Edit: My wife wanted me to point out that the tent tore at the seam and was easily sewn back together. Also the top poles are color coded and you cannot mess them up, just put colored pole with correct color sleeve. Once all the top poles are in it's like an ez up with the top rigid and it's easy going to put up support poles. One person could do it, but better to have two.I'm increasing rating to 5 because wife says I'm too rough on things. She's probably right.2nd edit: I was asked a good question. The marketing doesn't say, but the tent does come with a power port located by the door, that was nice bonus and company would be smart to mention that. Didn't notice any hanger stuff/bags, but with this much room just bring a dresser or something to store your stuff in. And tent folded up easy and actually fit back in bag without extreme measures.

This tent is massive. A 6’3 man can easily stand upWith out touching the roof. Quality materials. Tent has a room separator located in the middle that is somewhat removable and a sleeve for an extension cord.There were water leaks near the doors and some windows. Mostly accumulating near zippers and there were slight drips in other areas too. Held up great in the storm besides minor water leaks.Some of the cons is that it very difficult to put up as the directions provided are somewhat confusing. Due to it’s size storage and disassembly is difficult. Tent spikes are on the cheap side. The tent needs completely level ground and needs to be spread out tightly to avoid creating troughs towards the bottom that will collect water and dirt.Overall a really good quality tent. Just make sure your campsite is large enough to accommodate it. I recommend waterproofing the outside with water repellent and proofing the seams.

Love it so far! Set it up at the Texas Renaissance Festival on Sept. 23, 2017, and left it up for 10 straight weeks until we had to take it down on the Monday after Thanksgiving. At one point we did string a tarp past the midpoint of it and a 10x10 pop-up in front of it to create a walkway and rain-safe "patio." Leaving it set up that long, we did get the occasional water in it due to rainstorms - mostly through the one big window (only one half has a big window), and not a ton of water. Also, I don't know how, but somehow we got a small hole in the corner under that same window, and ants moved in and created a bed inside! Discovered that while tearing down that same Monday, and it was dispatched with rather easily (thankfully!). But, we were silly not to spray it with seam sealer\waterproofer before we left that Saturday 9/23. (Unfortunately that Amazon purchase arrived Sunday the 24th!)Our last tent was a Bushnell 11x18 bought from Wally World. It survived the TRF season last year sorta OK, but did not survive the Sherwood Forest Festival Faire AT ALL. It was also a mesh roof tent with a rainfly and floor vents, as this one is. The Bushnell had floating hubs in the ceiling that resulted in roof sagging unless everything was just right (things only learned by googling the issue and talking to friends who had the tent), and a large gap between the mesh ceiling and the fly. The gap kept it cooler in the heat, but in the cold ... the heat from our Mr. Buddy heater just escaped. And when the winds and rain of the Sherwood season came, the gap and the floor vents allowed dirt to be blown all over everything inside the tent. Birds literally tried to build nests between the mesh and the fly. The spring storm winds caused the hubs to move sufficiently to tear holes in the ceiling and is how it finally ended up in the trash.THIS tent ... it hasn't seen Sherwood yet. But I feel much better about it. It has poles rather than those floating hubs, and much less of a gap between the mesh roof and the fly. Which means it gets hot in the Texas heat, unless you open up the windows and set up your bed in the side with the big window (which we did not but will next time). But in the cold, it's beautiful. I'm much less worried about it enduring through wind and rain at Sherwood, where it will end up being set up for 11 straight weeks, assuming it is well staked down (hint: not flimsy skinny metal pins). I have adhesive velcro to close the floor vents when I want to, an idea I came up with after the Bushnell debacle. I wish the room divider in the middle was completely removable, but it's something I worked around as I set up the inside of the tent. Great tent, roomy enough for rolling closet rods, a heater, a bucket potty for when nature calls at 2 am, extra sleeping bags, costume/garb boxes, and more.

So, the instructions are terrible. They referece "color coded" rods but don't explain what colors go where. That said, laid the tent out, watched a YouTube video or someone reviewing the tent and figured out how to get the poles started and it went up very fast after that!The tent is HUGE and has 2 rooms. Its a great tent, very sturdy feeling. It has loads of windows for airflow. There is only 1 port for an extension cord. But the way the tent is designed you could easily fit another cord through the hole, or even in the door and just zip the door shut up to the cord.

Très grande tente. Nous avons été en camping avec nos 3 enfants et nous avions de la place. Rentre très bien debout même pour une personne de 6pied. Un matelas Queen, un parc pour bébé, 2 matelas simple et nous avions encore beaucoup de place.Grande fenêtre et Grande porte.Un coup de coeur.

The tent is great, and there are lots of reviews saying so. I agree with them.Many people are saying the assembly is difficult: that's not exactly true. The instructions suck, but the tent assembly is a breeze - I solo this tent up in under ten minutes. The poles are colour coded, the nylon sleeves are colour coded, it's perfect. Black to black to black, grey to grey to grey, colour to colour to colour. The tent designers couldn't have made it better. Whoever wrote the sewn-on instructions absolutely dropped the ball. Once you've assembled it the first time, you'll say "well why didn't they say that!?" and you'll never even glance at the instructions again.Now, in my case the fiberglass poles had some (I assume shipping related) damage. Three quick pictures later and the replacements were FedExed with a tracking number within 12 hours of me opening the box. Fantastic service.

This tent is huge! Set it up in the back yard and my little boy and I slept in it. Love it!!
