Hello! My husband and I camped 4th of July weekend with my cousin in her camper. We have the camping bug and can't wait to purchase our tent, and everything else! I do know from that rainy weekend, that a full rain fly is something I feel I really want in a tent. We liked the Big Agnes Big house 6, until I realized this years model does not have full rain fly in back. (we would have purchased garage thing for front)
Based on reviews and videos we have watched, we have narrowed down to these 4 choices:
Marmot Halo 6
Big Agnes Tensleep station 6
Marmot Limelight 6
REI Kingdom 6
We will be car camping. I know that the Limelight does not allow you to stand up, not sure how important this is to me. One thing I like about the Halo is that you can zip the bottom screen up or open it. One thing we like about Big agnes and Rei is that you can roll up rain fly without taking it off for some extra ventilation. I go back and forth on which tent I like most.
Any opinions or advice from anyone who has these tents or just anyone that knows anything about tents since we are new would be appreciated. Glad we found this forum and can't wait to start camping!
Thanks
Lynn
