Marmot - Limestone 4-Person Tent

I don't know how much you want to carry. I have a marmot limestone 4p, which isn't too large in my opinion. It has a nice bag with a nice handle and the footprint, which you buy separately, fits in the bag.

We have a Marmot Limestone 4P tent we use for BWCA trips and it’s held up well the past 4 years. We survived the 7”+ deluge on Crab Lake last June without anything getting wet inside. It runs almost 11 pounds, so it’s not the lightest one on the market. However, it’s been rock solid for us.

Our Marmot Limestone 4p tent fits both our single Expeds + some extra room, and we have camped with 2 dogs in it.

Oh, and they are the long x-wide.

Getting the rainfly onto the wawona 6 by yourself can be a pain in the ass but I’ve done it plenty of times camping with my son. He’s too young to be of any help with a task like that. Attaching the fly to the back of the tent first and then throwing it up and over is how I’ve always done it. That tent is a castle. I love the space you have in the vestibule but it can be a pain setting up something with such a large footprint in some sites so make sure you book one where it will fit. I actually just ordered a marmot limestone 4p so I can have something smaller for when I won’t have the luxury of using the wawona and its massive vestibule.

I agree. We’ve had a Limestone 4 for years and have had 2-3 trips where it rained all day, every day, and we’ve never had a single leak.

Just bought a Marmot Limestone 4 person tent and set it up for the first time. I’ve got room for an inflatable mattress, a small table and chair. I can stand inside and not have to crawl out into the dirt. It’s a game changer for sure. Really nice for car camping.

Exactly this. We bought a limestone last summer and have used it a couple of times and it's been a champ. 

I like full coverage rain flys and good vestibules. Marmot Limestone has been my recent purchase and I’m quite happy with it. Great headroom. Before that, I used (and still have) my older 4 season REI Basecamp 6.p — great for storms, not much for headroom though.

I have the Halo 6p and used to own the Limestone. Both are exceptional.

Also consider the Marmot Limestone. Another with a lifetime warranty. Nice inside height, they ventilate well, and the poles are very sturdy.
