Thanks for the walkthrough! Would love to see it once you get it furnished… to see how everything fits. Would also like to hear what you think of it once you’ve used it a bit.
@@mehchocolate1257 , oh yeah! Hopefully we’ll be able to sleep well! We’re putting down carpet and everything, I’m really going to try to make this thing feel like a hotel room.😆
That is a really cool tent. Funny story. My wife wanted one so I looked in to it. We had a Coleman Skylodge, but after being rained in for 3 days with 2 pitbulls, she wanted more room. So I watched some videos on the set up. Seems how I would be the only one setting it up, I bought her a pop-up camper instead. I should have bought her the tent. 6 years latter, she wanted, yep, more room. So now she has a travel trailer. On the plus side, my old truck wouldn't pull it, so I got to get a new truck. Anyways, looking forward to seeing it all set up with our stuff in it and how well the air conditioners work in it. Have fun and great travels!!
Oh my goodness, getting rained in like that sounds like a nightmare! Getting a travel trailer is definitely the dream one day though! You liking yours so far? Only thing is, I’ll need a small camper, something I can pull with a SUV. I have no business in a big truck, I do good just to keep a sedan on the road.😂
@@outdoormary It was real rough that last day! We/she loves the camper. it's a 30 foot, but we plan on living in it for a little while when I retire. There are some really nice small campers out there. I would say for safety, get one with 2 axles. I knew she would want a bigger one so I did a LOT of research just on dealers (2 years) And a year on campers. Best dealer I found is in Coldwater Michigan. A lot of people are building their own out of cargo trailers.
While I was commenting, you were talking about going camping next month or in a couple of months, so I'm guess no-one will be camping out in the back??? We use to camp out back and our parents use to keep the door unlocked so we could come in if we wanted. We had the greatest parents. I really miss them. Well have fun. I'll be checking in on you all. See ya!
Sounds like you’ve got some great memories from camping out back with your family!❤️ this tent is actually too big to fit in our backyard 😆. But I would like to get a smaller one so we can do that! The kids are grown now, ( 20 & 24 ). But I still think it’s be a cool bonding experience for us.
That's too bad he struggled, My son and I can put this together in less than 20 minutes. It takes 30 minutes when I do it alone. The hardest part was transporting it because its so heavy. I resolved that by storing it in a large rolling suitcase.
Thanks for the information! We haven’t been to Michigan yet but we certainly want to. I heard Traverse city and Sleeping Bears dunes are amazing places in Michigan!
We waited for years for this tent. Sealed and sprayed it. We weren’t very successful keeping the Air conditioning…due to 90’ degree weather. We have used ours for 3 years. We have had to fix several things at this point. I love this tent…but way too much for us. I love the bathroom there as well. I would rather have a non mesh ceiling.
@@tentcampingadventureswithh3298 , I can’t wait to see how it’s going to perform in Utah next month. I’m a little worried about it not staying cool enough too. I’m going to Velcro some tarp material to the underside of the rain fly. I hope it helps! Wish me luck!
Love the tent...plenty of room!,so are you going to furnish it? Lol Are you behind your house? If it is, then you and your family can camp right in the backyard but watch out for possums and racoons. From Donna in Connecticut
Hi Donna!! Yes, we are definitely going to furnish it, I think I may have bought too many furnishings actually 😆. I gotta remind myself it’s still just a tent. We plan to use this as our portable vacation home. We were spending way too much money on vacation rentals, the savings with this tent will allow us to go on more vacations now. We’re going to Utah next week!
Hi there! I paid about 300 for it last year at Walmart.com. I definitely think it’s worth it because it’s very spacious, like a little cottage. Most importantly, it held up to some really high winds in the desert very well. I expect this to last a long time based off my experience so far. The only con is the size and weight makes it a little difficult to transport if only one person, but overall it’s a small inconvenience in order to have so much living space.
@@outdoormary Thank u for responding I appreciate it very much, I have been looking online all day and now will be easier with the info. Thank you again stay safe and have a great day.
I know right! I’m really hoping they’ll bring them back. Don’t forget to check eBay and your local FB marketplace, I’ve seen some listed here and there.
@@RF1972. , we’ll. We try to avoid camping and hiking in areas where we are more likely to encounter bears or mountain lions, more heavily trafficked areas. I truly hope I never see a bear.😩
I know😩, I keep checking to see when they’ll be back in stock with no luck. I’ve seen them for sale from time to time on FB Market place . Maybe try looking there. I’ll definitely let you know if I ever sell. Best of luck!!
Oh THANK YOU!!! We ended up with a tent and it's nice and all, but my brother (49) and in a wheelchair will not fit in it. The flat creek he would have his oun room. Please don't forget about me if you decide to sale it. Enjoy it until then❤
I think it would be tough to keep warm air from escaping, the tent material seems strong, but definitely a bit thin. At minimum, you would need to cover the entire mesh roof with tarp to help insulate. The floor vents do close all the way down, but they don’t seal. My plan is to eventually line the floor vents with Velcro so that they will seal. We actually plan on buying an affordable canvas tent for winter camping.
@@ritastevens8975 , yes it comes with a movie screen, a room divider for the living area and bathroom, and hanging storage for both closets & bathroom. It also has 2 rods for the closets so that you can hang clothes.
@@ritastevens8975, it’s definitely an awesome tent, we just got back from camping & it felt just like being in a hotel. Here’s the tent furnished. ua-cam.com/video/DdmJYw8e00s/v-deo.htmlsi=H2XTDekN71_jl92P
The entry room is 6' 8" wide by 6' 10" deep. The rooms on either side & the center space right in front of the bathroom are 6'8" squares. The bathroom is about 6 feet wide × 3 feet deep
@@outdoormary yeah, and so humid you could almost swim through the air. Death Valley still has you beat though as heat goes, but with the heat index, IDK. That being said, I’ve been through Georgia many times, it’s damn hot. I think the sweet tea just might be better in Ga though. That extra sugar does a lot.
Very nice 👍 I like to see it after it's furnished. Thanks for sharing.
Absolutely 😀 We’ll be leaving for our trip next week! I’ll post a video as soon as I get everything together. I’m excited about it!!!
Thanks for the walkthrough!
Would love to see it once you get it furnished… to see how everything fits. Would also like to hear what you think of it once you’ve used it a bit.
Absolutely, we’ll be spending a week in it in Utah this summer. I’ll post videos of our set up, and how it withstands the desert winds.
@@outdoormary climbs in the tent night night 😂😂😂😂

Congratulations on your new home. It’s not conventional, however, people must do what they can to survive these trying times.
Thank you, but we just plan on using this as a portable vacation home of sorts.😁
Were did you buy it can't seem to find it anywhere been looking for months

Zip all openings before staking. Really nice family 🏕️ tent.
Thank you for the tip!😃I appreciate it! Happy camping ⛺️
My buddy had one. And he struggled with it all the time. Hard to set up

Wow that’s a nice tent. 🎉❤
Thank you!
gahh daym, you could have a concert in that. My vacation home ain't got shit on that.
Hi Mary this is such a cool idea with the help of the lord
Where can I find this. I can’t find any at Walmart or online
Unfortunately they’re still out of stock at Walmart.com. They may not be available again until Spring when camping season cranks up again.
Michigan much better spring ,summer camping weather, 60s 70s ....50s at night .... no humidity eww
Good video & enjoy your cool tent

Hi! We got it from Walmart.com. Price is 349$ And thank you! We’re looking forward to our trip next month!
@@outdoormary I’m so jealous. Lol.
Ozark trail is a Walmart brand
Cool tent where did u buy it from question

I know right! I’m really hoping they’ll bring them back. Don’t forget to check eBay and your local FB marketplace, I’ve seen some listed here and there.
But what if two big bears come can't they claw the tent down just curious :-)
They absolutely could, lol
@@outdoormary 😳

I have been checking marketplace, eBay, and Google shopping.... nothing.
Would this work in the Michigan cold? Did it seem to be well insulated? Do the floor vents close entirely?

This is very nice❤
Thank you! We really like it, makes vacations affordable! Not having to worry about expensive hotels.
How long did it take to put up?
Now that we’ve done it a few times, it goes up in about 15 minutes. It’s actually quite easy.
Does it have the movie screen with it?
@@ritastevens8975 , yes it comes with a movie screen, a room divider for the living area and bathroom, and hanging storage for both closets & bathroom. It also has 2 rods for the closets so that you can hang clothes.

LoL I wanted to watch them struggle instead of just listening lol
Do you by chance know the measurements of the sunroof area and the living area? I'm looking to put foam flooring down
The entry room is 6' 8" wide by 6' 10" deep. The rooms on either side & the center space right in front of the bathroom are 6'8" squares. The bathroom is about 6 feet wide × 3 feet deep
Thank you. I just got mine today!!! I'm so excited
where did you purchase this from? I can not find it anywhere@@jccmine
@@superbuzza1 I got mine from Walmart. It suited my needs well. Very spacious. I'll try to include a short video if I can.
Sadly they don't make Flat Creek tent anymore, they have the Hazel Creek to replace it :(
I know, such a shame! The Hazel creek isn’t as nice.
How much
349$ US at Walmart.com
Thet got it on clearance now for $45 at some stores
Georgia? In the summer? Say no more, it’s hot.
Yes! 😂 it’s the Death Valley of the south!
@@outdoormary yeah, and so humid you could almost swim through the air. Death Valley still has you beat though as heat goes, but with the heat index, IDK.

😂, yes! I always say it’s sugar with a bit a tea added!
Shower of tent mad all camping sites git showers
😂
What were the measurements of the floor space he was measuring?
The width of the entry room which is 6’8” wide by 6’10” deep. The rest of the tent is also 6’8” wide, and 20 feet long.
