I totally love this tent. I had the Coleman 8 man instant tent and I would come back to a swimming pool in the tent after those famous Floridian afternoon rain.
First-time visitor from So. California. Agree with Deborah - very nice tent and set-up! But, a little over the top for just one person? But, then again, I'm kind of into minimalism. 🙂 What kinds of activities can you do at this Disney campground? I hope you had a great time, Jon! 👍
Oh it's very over the top for sure but sooooo worth it for a week visit. If I camp for 3 nights or less I don't go so crazy with everything. For activities, Ft Wilderness has archery, horse back riding, catch and release fishing, arts and crafts...and a lot more.
@@JonLeeTravelsTheWorld The campground's activities sound fun and entertaining! It also looks like a great place to do some bicycling and hiking. Thanks for making and sharing this video and, again, I hope you had a great time! Happy New Year!
I got it from Amazon 3 years ago and it's awesome. Unfortunately it's not available at the moment. Here is the link just in case it becomes available again. www.amazon.com/10000mAh-Portable-Rechargeable-Operated-Hurricane/dp/B0899HCV1N?pd_rd_w=IgNCO&content-id=amzn1.sym.e3825789-e6f0-4fb1-a407-ff4674fea50d&pf_rd_p=e3825789-e6f0-4fb1-a407-ff4674fea50d&pf_rd_r=141Z7CCGKNHR0GN47DTE&pd_rd_wg=9JRAV&pd_rd_r=302e535b-1451-4520-bcf4-2a14defa21c7&pd_rd_i=B0899HCV1N&psc=1&ref_=pd_basp_m_rpt_ba_s_oos_2_sc
Good review. Can the vestibule be sealed against the tent. It looks like toward the bottom there is a gap. Just wondering if it can be sealed off pretty good. I am interested in this as a 3+ season tent.
Unfortunately it can't. However, the good news is the gap helps air circulate throughout the tent when the vestibule is fully closed. And the tent is amazing. Held up in the Floridian rain for a week and half!
@@JonLeeTravelsTheWorld Thanks for the response. I am looking for a tent that could be used for a 3+ season tent. This tent seems to fill the bill better than most. Canvas is a no-go for me being I live in the south. I intend to heat the tent with a diesel heater. The Wawona 6 door is full bug screen so it is out. This 8-man version at least has some fabric on the lower door.
@@JonLeeTravelsTheWorld Well....I just pulled the trigger on this tent. I ran across it at Moosejaw for $428......I could not pass that up. Thanks for your review.
@@WayneTheSeine make sure to grab the groundsheet as well. Gotta protect that tent floor. Or even a tarp will do if you already have one. I promise you are gonna love that tent.
@@JonLeeTravelsTheWorld Thanks. I ordered the footprint when I ordered the tent. I also ordered a lightweight canvas tarp for the interior floor thinking it would not only protect it but would also add a bit of comfort.
Nice set up, nice tent. I agree it's worth taking time to set up well for a long stay.

Great vid! What kind of fan was that hanging in the tent?
