Happy OzTent Camper



Hi Randy and Kim

I am absolutely thrilled with my new Oztent. The quality and workmanship are excellent and the ease of putting it up is almost unbelievable. It has provided me with all that I had hoped for in my camping trips which are numerous. I have my van and my tent and that gives me all the comforts to really enjoy my trips. I use my oztent as a living and changing room as I sleep on a cot in my van. All the comforts of home. I don't have the hassle of putting up and taking down the traditional tent and have the height needed to comfortably change clothes. I have a padded recliner and little table and when an afternoon rain comes I grab a good book and enjoy the "in" time. I might add that I bought the little pad that WalMart sells to put under your sleeping bag and place it under my chair to protect the floor. Works great.

I would highly recommend your company, your products and the support you have provided is great. Looking forward to doing more business with you in the future.

Thanks so much, Louanne

Camping - A Great Way to Get Away From it All!

Yes it is!

Looking back at the good ole days when folks would sit on the front porch and talk about life in general, well within the past 10+ years friends and family are beginning to enjoy the great outdoors in a similar fashion, camping has the perfect combination of recreation and relaxation for all ages. Here in Illinois there was a budget cut that involved closing some of our state park locations to reduce spending? go figure. There is no better place than away from the hustle and bustle of the city to gather your thoughts and spend time with the ones you care about.

Sure there is the preperation of packing gear, planning meals and loading everything including the kids in the trunk and the back seat of a car or SUV, then your off to secure the best camping spot by arriving before the crowds show up. Once we arrive at the perfect spot then the fun begins by taking everything you had stategically packed and unpack it, usually means the wife and kids do some site seeing of there own after they make that much needed bathroom stop that had been delayed in order to arrive at the spot before someone else got it. Leaving Dad to get everything set up for a weekend of R & R. Don't get me wrong I enjoy the entire process of camping, because after the work is done we all can sit around and enjoy the campfire while eating some dutch oven meals and connecting with one another, creating camping memories is definitely a great way to get away from it all.

Camping with Canvas Tents

Through the years I have experienced camping in a variety of settings. Weather conditions can play a huge role in the outcome of a successful camping trip. Growing up in Boy Scouts and now in leadership through a Christian based Scouting program Royal Rangers, I have come to appreciate "great" camping gear. Providing quality gear for the boy's helps them experience all the outdoors has to offer, and makes for a more pleasurable experience.
I have always preferred canvas tents, they have a reputation for long lasting performance, and with proper care and storage you could easily use a canvas tent for many years. There were a few rules we had to follow when I was a boy, like not touching the canvas from the inside of the tent while it was raining, because it would cause the rain to penetrate through the canvas material creating a moisture problem inside the tent, but with the latest in canvas technology this is no longer a problem. The boys can touch the inside of the tent all they like, as boys do, and they will not wick or leak water. They are made with Hydra-Shield canvas, which is custom woven treated canvas, a double fill (two threads twisted together) and a silicone-based saturation treatment that is water tight, breathable and durable, for superior waterproofing & strength. The older traditional single thread canvas tents were, light weave canvas with paraffin or oil based treatment applied directly to the exterior of the canvas. This would wear off and need to be re-applied more often to maintain waterproofing.
When considering the purchase of a canvas tent, I recommend checking out our great selection of Kodiak Canvas tents. Experience for yourself how enjoyable camping can be with a high quality canvas tent.

OzTent Customer Camping Testimonial

Hi Randy,

We have just returned from a 2 week camping trip through northern British Columbia and Alberta's Rockies.

The RV3 and fly we purchased from you exceeded our expectations and made our experience that much more enjoyable. As novice campers we truly appreciated how easy it was to set up and the level of comfort it provided... Especially on our couple of very rainy nights when we stayed perfectly cozy and dry.

We were also very pleased with the service and delivery we received from your company. Kim was a great help in filling our order and helping us with shipping choices to Canada.

We were approached several times during our travels, by both friends and complete strangers, and asked about the tent. We were more than happy to provide your contact information.

Please find attached a couple of photos.

Cheers,

John and Kim

OzTent Experience Testimonial


We love our oztent! My parents in Australia have one that they highly recommended so we decided to buy our very own RV-4 to make camping just that bit easier. And we are thrilled with our purchase! The buying process was simple and shipping went great. Although the tents are a bit pricey, we love the quick set-up and not having the hassle with a tarp due to the waterproof canvas.

Cheers,
Jemima

Your OzTent Experience Testimonial

Hi to our friends at OZtent,
We are really enjoying our new OZtent! We bought the RV-4 with the side panel attachments as a present to ourselves in celebration of our 6th wedding anniversary, and we couldn't be happier with our purchase. We got to try it out for the first time 2 weeks ago when we took our 7 1/2 month old daughter camping for the first time in the costal redwoods of northern california at Jedediah Smith Redwoods State Park. We all loved it. I enjoyed how easy it was to set up camp - thats saying a lot when you're carting around a 17lb infant on your back. My wife enjoyed the covered canopy area that the side panels created, it was the perfect area to set up our "kitchenette" and also relax during early morning drizzles. It was the perfect size for our family of three, but still room to grow if we add another kid or two to our family.
We have already been recommending this tent to all our friends with kids telling them how nice it is and how easy it is to set up. In fact, I'm currently trying to talk my father-in-law to buy one for himself so that when we camp together we can piece our tents together and create a mega tent - the way family camping is meant to be. It also became popular around our campground too. We had a few of our neighbors even come over to ask about our tent- even the camp hosts were very interested in our tent, we gave a few of them a demonstration of how easy it is to assemble.
Thank you again for this amazing product! We love our new tent.
