OzTent Customer Experience


I bought the 3 man OZtent
I went on a 4x4 trip and it spent the week camping. My self and 2 other enjoyed my tent the first night. Second night was to cold for the second tent that was brought. So those that were using the second tent did not sleep it in but rather join in with my tent for a total of 5 people in my tent. We were all pretty well comfortable with 5 in there. This product exceeded its so called person limit. This was a great tent went up in less then the advertised 30 seconds.

Thank you Family Tent Camping this was a great buy and your the only place I could buy this tent from.

I would greatly recommend Family Tent Camping to anyone one looking for a good tent because Family Tent Camping actually carries products you can not get elsewhere and these products are worth purchasing.

Fall Camping Tip: Packing for your Trip

Packing Clothes: Pack layered clothing. The Fall season can be unpredictable,it may be cold and sometimes it may be warm enough to sweat. So, make clothing arrangements for both the seasons. Pack some t-shirts and light jackets & lightweight clothing.
T-shirts add comfort for the camper and make him feel cool if the atmosphere is hot. jackets provide warmth if temperatures drop and can be removed or added easily.
Each layer has a function. The base layer (against your skin) manages moisture; the insulating layer protects you from the cold; the shell layer (outer layer) shields you from wind and rain. You simply add or subtract layers as needed.

Different terrains: Be prepared for different terrains, the atmosphere can at once become dry and some times it may even shower. So, if you are camping in this season pack shoes suitable for both terrains. Tennis shoes and boots will be very useful in the fall camping.

Fluids: You cannot predict the climate, so carry a mixture of hot and cold water. The day is hotter and the nights are cold. So, pack water and cool drinks for the day climate and pack coffee, hot chocolate and tea for the night.

The combination of these liquids will help the camper to get along the unexpected changes in the climate.

Sleeping Gear: Make sure to bring a Sleeping Bag that will maintain your body heat, by sleeping on a camping cot or foam sleeping mat to provide a barrier of insulation between you and the cold ground.

Activities: Take both indoor and outdoor activities in fall camping. If its cold outside, you can play indoor games, if the climate is in normal conditions you can play outdoor games.

Camping in the Fall is a great time to enjoy the great outdoors in all it's beautiful surroundings, be prepared and capture the coolest season for camping. Visit our Camping Store for all your Fall Camping needs.
