Springbar - Springbar Canvas Tents

My husband and I have a Springbar Classic Jack 140 with a wood stove, which serves as our living/bedroom area AND the Springbar Leisure Port, which serves as our kitchen/dining area. It's like a portable two-room cabin or yurt. We haul all our gear in a utility trailer (and store all our stuff in same trailer when we're home), so we have plenty of space for the dogs in our Subaru. Canvas tents are heavy, so we also travel with a folding wagon to make it easier to haul our stuff from the trailer to the site. (And the wagon is good for hauling water and firewood.) We're retired, so we tend to set up and stay in a spot for 4-12 days at a time. I would take canvas tents over a van (we lived the van life for a year about eight years ago) or RV or trailer because the Springbar tents offer so much more space, ventilation and versatility. And they're just beautiful to live in. We put wool Moroccan rugs on the floor, camp chairs with sheepskin, solar lanterns and man, we be glamping. Just last week we were up on Lake Superior with a strong north wind that drove the temperatures down to a 34 degree-windchill. The canvas tent didn't flap and with the wood stove, it was so cozy. We sat around and read by the fire in our pjs. Heaven!

Get yourself a USA made Springbar. Yes, they are more expensive but worth every penny and a lifetime warranty.

I love my Springbar. Going on 10 years of use and it is still in excellent condition.

Are you planning to have a heat source in your tent? We use a canvas tent that is great year round, 2 big outdoorsman cots (love) + Teton mattress pads and use a propane heater to keep it comfortable on cooler nights. https://preview.redd.it/7rvf6tn4oqte1.jpeg?width=4096&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=e79e5017325ed43f5e0432928d6fba2ccb6e3261

Nice! They are great, we have the little buddy, but ended up getting the big buddy for those extra cold nights. That is also our doggo in front who enjoys warming up by it. We crack a couple windows and keep a carbon monoxide detector just in case. Canvas tents have decent ventilation and we have not had the detector go off once since using it. The tent is a Springbar Skyliner.

Thirds, it was definitely a hit to the pocket book but we also camp a lot. I have zero complaints about mine however I do need to get in touch with them because my dork good boi scratched the door screen

There are only two downsides. The purchase hit and the fact it weighs a metric F ton 😂 I haven’t actually looked into it but I feel like it has a life time warranty to be fixed (even user error (aka my dog ripped the screen)). I’ll use it this season and get in touch with them about a winter repair. Shipping is probably the most expensive e part of the repair.

Springbar or Flexbow is definitely the answer. Staying in one place for two weeks is worth spending the extra coin on a really nice tent. I think Springbar tents have a lifetime warranty, and they are known to last 30-40 years.

Springbar for the win

The Zempire blow-up tent is a great option that I don't think has been mentioned yet. I've got one and can set it up in just over 2 minutes. At 5'2, you'd have no problem standing up across most of the tent (I'm 5'4"). Some other solid choices: • Springbar and Kodiak canvas tents: Incredibly spacious and durable though must be packed dry so be aware of that if you're camping in wet conditions • Nemo Aurora: Replaced the popular Wagontop model, offering good headroom Hope this helps!

Any Springbar tent beside the Compact. I have the Vagabond and can stand in it at 6'2" with room to spare.

Springbar are very good. Very heavy. and expensive. and worth it

6'4" here, I absolutely love my springbar tent. Best tent ever.

Have you looked at a Kodiak or Springbar tent? They're heavy, but bombproof. They're not hard to set up either, and don't get like a sauna in the middle of the day.

Springbar Classic Jack or Skyliner. Yes, they are big/heavy but they will last a lifetime and they are burly enough to stand up to high wind and winter weather. One person can set one up in ~10mins, and with two people maybe 5min setup. Hardest part is hammering in the stakes if you have tough/dry ground. Also, its hard to beat cooking and chilling with the wood stove especially during the short-day season.
