This three-season family-size tent has a high ceiling and a large amount of liveable space, a fantastic comfortable and roomy family base camp.
Big Agnes says:
A 3-season, freestanding, double-wall tent for car camping, trailhead campgrounds, or long weekends on the river, the Spicer Peak 6 is a 6-person tent built for when camping with comfort and room to spread out is a priority. Featuring two large doors and two vestibules, plus plenty of mesh for ventilation on hot summer nights, Spicer Peak tents make the ideal base camp for all your family front country adventures.
Our Verdict
The Spicer Peak tents are huge spacious family tents; the tent has nearly six feet and a half feet of headroom, so you can stand up and get changed without having to contort yourself.
The Spicer Peak is straightforward to erect; the poles are oversized for stability and neatly fit together to form a large dome with a volumizing bar that runs across the centre of the tent. Everything is colour-coded and snaps together easily.
The doors are enormous and run the full height of the tent, so you have over 6 feet of height; you do not even have to duck when entering the tent. With both doors open, you get an incredibly well-ventilated tent, which is still cool even on hot days.
