Product Information

The other main part of the comfort equation is height, and once again, we generally apply the same rules here we apply to a large camping tent: You’re going to want to be able to stand up and move around freely inside without touching the ceiling.

Well, yes! This tent is perfect for windy areas since it has stakes and pre-attached strings that secure the tent to the ground, so it does not get blown by the wind. After testing and analyzing dozens of popular models currently available, we found the REI Screen House Shelter to be the best option for the overwhelming majority of campers. We love the Screen House Shelter because it takes interior space, convenience, and bug protection to the next level, and does it all with high-quality materials and a smart layout that works great for group gatherings. For smaller groups of 4-6 people, we’ve found the best screen houses for camping are around 10’ x 10’. This leaves enough room for a standard camp table, plus room for everyone to sit, with space left over to walk around the table without being too cramped. Any more than 6 campers and you’ll likely want a bit more square footage, so plan accordingly. The best screen houses for camping – no matter what kind of adventure you have planned in the wild.

L.L.Bean Woodlands Screen House L.L.Bean Woodlands Screen House includes 10 stakes and 8 guy lines for extra stability. Note also that it is supported with inflatable beams instead of poles. Even more unique, you have a single-point inflation design. So this shelter is incredibly easy to use. It is also fully freestanding. One thing I also like about this screen house is the wheeled carrying bag (which helps relieve the high weight). This means that it’ll do great in summer weather under light rain, but you may need an extra spritz of weatherproofing for more robust weather.
