Halo 6 Person Tent

I love the Marmot Halo 6. I insist on a full rain fly because I refuse to deal with a wet tent. It also has two vestibules so a place to sit outside while taking off muddy hiking boots and store bikes.

Came here to say this. i love it.

Marmot Halo 6, plenty of space for 4 ppl imo. One of the few with a full size rainfly it can take some wind and heavy rain. The two full size doors are nice, not the biggest vestibule depends what you're looking for I suppose. I personally prefer to setup a tarp on the side above the piknik table tonhang out. Like you i think a tent has to keep you dry. If you want even bigger than the halo, north face has domes that you could consider but their expensive. I think the halo's a good in-between for a tent that can take bad weather but that doesn't need to withstand high altitude winds and weather I quite like mine.

Is the tent the only item you want/need to buy? Do you have the rest of your camping kit dialed in? What makes you interested in a Springbar tent? Are you considering their big canvas options? Personally - I don't want a canvas tent. They are bulky to pack and hard to setup. Maybe if I was in 1 spot for a month long adventure, or I was camping long-term in the winter. If I had a solid budget for a tent - I'd get something like this: * [https://www.rei.com/product/202982/rei-co-op-wonderland-6-tent](https://www.rei.com/product/202982/rei-co-op-wonderland-6-tent) * [https://www.bigagnes.com/collections/car-camping-tents/products/big-house-six](https://www.bigagnes.com/collections/car-camping-tents/products/big-house-six) * [https://www.marmot.com/p/halo-6-person-tent/SP\_220055/AFS\_889169250958.html](https://www.marmot.com/p/halo-6-person-tent/SP_220055/AFS_889169250958.html) * [https://www.thenorthface.com/en-us/p/bags-and-gear/camp-shop-829877/wawona-6-tent-NF0A8BDV](https://www.thenorthface.com/en-us/p/bags-and-gear/camp-shop-829877/wawona-6-tent-NF0A8BDV) * [https://www.nemoequipment.com/collections/tents/products/aurora-highrise](https://www.nemoequipment.com/collections/tents/products/aurora-highrise) * [https://www.snowpeak.com/collections/4-6-person/products/alpha-breeze](https://www.snowpeak.com/collections/4-6-person/products/alpha-breeze) All under $1000, plenty of money to save for a new cooler, set of chairs, canopy, cook setup, or other important gear.

My family of 4 have the Marmot 6P Halo and it works great for us. Durable and spacious, we also love the vestibule as it allows us to sit under cover or bring items in in the event it rains.

Tagging on here. My family of three love our Marmot Halo 6p. If you are truly going solo the 4p is probably a better bet, though you wouldn’t be able to stand upright in it. If that’s a deal breaker, the 6p is 76” at its peak.

It’s certainly nice, though neither my wife or I are very tall. The design of the Halo creates nearly vertical walls which make the standing room reach further out than just at the very center. We camp with 3 cots (because we’re fancy) in the tent so being able to stand up while closer than just the dead center makes getting dressed much easier.

We bought a halo 6 just about a year ago and love it. Still lists on their website and available at other online retailers. I think it's gone through a minor redesign (different door setup and possibly a rain fly change.)

My family of four (plus dog!) have been using a Marmot Halo 6 for six years, and have been very happy with it. I (6'5") can stand up reasonably well within the tent and the vestibule. Because of the vertical size of the tent, I'm not sure how well it will handle wind (we tend to use it in car camping spots that are relatively sheltered). But it is definitely good at handling rain. Although, it is set up tent-first, so setting up in the rain is not ideal. Looking at the tent on the Marmot website, it looks very similar to the version we have (which I feel is a good sign that it is pretty well designed): [https://www.marmot.com/p/halo-6-person-tent/SP\_220055/AFS\_889169250958.html](https://www.marmot.com/p/halo-6-person-tent/SP_220055/AFS_889169250958.html)
