Marmot Guest House 4 Person Dome Tent Review

The Guest House 4 has four doors and a maximum center height of 5' 3, which is a little bit bigger than the average height of the 134 other 4 person tents we have examined With 113 square feet of space inside, it is significantly larger than some other 4-person tents, and it easily offers enough room for you and, up to three other campers all through the 3-seasons, this tent is approved for use in, larger tents like this one often make a really nice choice for campers that appreciate having heaps of room inside of the tent.

A few of the great things about dome tents are, that they are generally speaking not too heavy, making them simple to carry. In most all instances, tents used for backpacking are of the dome type. They are usually, freestanding and very simple to set up. In calm weather, you could do without guy lines and stakes, not that this is suggested.

Dome tents are the most commonly seen of all the other types of tents you will find when camping. They tend to do better in storms than other types, allowing rain to roll off the slanted sides, unlike cabin tents that have flat roofs, allowing the water to pool on the roof. The most basic dome tent should have a rectangular floor, slanted walls two or more poles which converge in the center of the roof. Due to the way they are made, it is usually thought of that they are best for up to a maximum of 6 people.Many dome tents contain more than a single room, similar to the Marmot Guest House two-room tent

PROS

1. Vestibules. Having two vestibules. Offers you somewhere to store shoes and other things that can get dirty, muddy, this is a big plus.
2. Internal storage. It is nice to see Marmot has added a gear loft and pockets in the interior to store some of your gear.
3. Has a screened area. Having a screened area that is separated from the main body of the tent is a big plus.
4. Has awnings. The awnings protect the sides of the tent.
5. More than one room. The Guest House comes with two rooms, allowing for extra privacy. Great for a large family and groups who do not want to be all sleeping together.
6. Removable divider. For those who would like to maximize all of the available space that the Guest House provides, the divider can be removed to have one large room for everyone to share.
7. More than one door. With 4 doors, it is simpler to get in and out of the tent, in the middle of the night if needed.
8. Durable, water-resistant floor. The floor material is 70d 100% Polyester Taffeta F/R, which is a substantially thick and high-strength fabric. Meaning the base is not prone to rips and punctures. Also, the material has a 2000 mm waterproofing rating, which is very good for most circumstances.
9. Breathable. The Guest House's interior uses a mesh fabric on the inside of the tent, and this helps maximize the flow of air. With the extra ventilation, and this tent is great for use in the summer.
10. Other sizes are available. Marmot has also made this model available in Other Sizes.

CONS

1. No windows. With no windows it is not simple to keep the tent ventilated on a hot summers night.
2. Footprint not Included. There is no included footprint, The floor may be made of 70d 100% Polyester Taffeta F/R but it is still best to protect it further with a footprint, more so on rough terrain.
3. A little heavy for backpacking. Even though the Guest House 4, looks like a small tent, it is not probably the best choice for backpacking as it weighs 15 pounds. This is quite a lot more than many other backpacking tents
4. Sloping walls. Even though Dome tents have heaps of things to rave about. The sloping sides do tend to make it all the more smaller inside.

Marmot's Guest House 4 tent is ideal for car camping.
