MARMOT Crane Creek 2P/3P Camping and Backpacking Tents & Footprints

I've used this tent for dozens of 2-4 day backpacking trips for almost a decade. The 3p tent fits 2 adults very comfortably with space for gear. This is not an ultralight product but the comfort is worth the weight, bulk and price. The zippers still work like new. Setup is easy with hooks instead of sleeves. I've had no problems with condensation. No parts are broken or torn. Inside it has 5 pouches including 1 on the ceiling. There are felt hooks and a plastic hook to hang things from the ceiling.I've always carried this tent on the outisde of an external frame pack. It is large for a 60L pack. I've never split the load between 2 people but that would probably work.Like all 3p tents on the market, 3 adults will not fit comfortably in this tent. I like to sleep and camp comfortably in all weather conditions so this is perfect for me.I've never had water in the tent. If the tent is going to be in steady rain for 12+ hours, use an additional tarp over the tent as you should for all tents. But it is still waterproof under normal conditions.I plan on using this tent forever. Excellent product! Buy it!

Took this for a 3 week, 150 mile backpacking trip. Still feels brand new. Used it every night.If you're more concerned with a reliable, comfortable tent - this is a great backpacking tent. By breaking up the items into their own stuff bags, I was able to easily fit the tent, footprint and stakes inside my backpack. Only the poles had to be stashed on the side of my bag.It's not ultra light - but it withstood wind of up to 60mph (with the guy lines staked out and all stakes having rocks on top of them) on the top of a mountain. Also held up well in snow, light hail, and lots of thunderstorms. Never got wet inside, even with sideways rain. The 2p comfortably fit myself and my gear completely inside. The two doors and vestibules were nice - would keep my pack in one vestibule in good weather, and use the other as my door.Enough room to stretch, change clothes, roll out muscles, and generally be dry, warm and comfy. Private and not transparent. No condensation. Leave the rain fly off on warm, dry nights for a great breeze.Best part is by the end of the trip I could set up and break down the tent in about 2 minutes by myself. In bad weather or emergencies, this is a great feature.Tent stakes did bend fairly easily in rocky ground like most aluminum hook stakes, but still work. That's the only damage I managed to inflict on this tent.

Amazing tent, kept me dry and had enough room for myself and all my gear. Was easy to set up but i had a lot of issues with the zippers snagging everything. Unfortunately on my first go with it what i was setting it up and one of the grommets for the poles blew and the tent fell over. Was able to finish the weekend without it but i feel its necessary to have.

Fantastic quality. Have used for multiple camping trips! It’s a tight fit for two people so definitely need to cozy up but it’s very easy to setup, it’s been through quite a few rains successfully and generally cozy! This may just be me, but I also love the green color, the sun coming through is so beautiful! There is an option to ventilate well but if you want to stay warm, it’s easy to bundle up and retain your heat!

This is the best tent I've ever owned. Bought it about 6 months ago, and I use it at least once a month for at least 2-3 nights each time. In heavy rains, absolutely nothing makes it in. It stays incredibly warm in the winter as well. It's small and compact, but large enough to fit everything in. It easily fits into my backpack or camping tote and weighs almost nothing. Everything is well-stitched and I anticipate it will last many years.

I’ve owned a lot of tents and this is an amazing deal for a very good tent. Easy set up and take down, seemingly perfect seam stitching with ample tie down points and it all fits so easily in the stuff sack that I thought I must have left out some parts. Nope. It all fits. I’m a happy camper.

Well built, easy to put up and take down. A perfect choice for 2 people and their stuff. Seams are well sealed, good zippers, and a user friendly stuff sack. Some may consider that a small detail, but I own several other tents including a high end four season tent, and you need to be an engineer to fit all the components back in the sack! Not a problem with this tent. The poles are durable and it does well in the wind.I'm certain you can spend a lot more on a lighter, fancier tent for backpacking, but after several trips afield, I feel I got plenty of bang for my buck with this tent. Looking forward to more adventures with this as my shelter!

I went camping every month for years as a boy scout, but it had been a while since then. My wife and I got this tent and went camping in Garden of the Gods in Illinois last 4th of July. It was a pretty hot trip, and we got rained on. The tent did great, no water leaked and we ended up putting a tarp up above us so we could open the rain fly to cool off the second night. It was plenty big for my wife and I and our cattle dog, along with a backpack at our feet. I really like this tent. Easy to set up and only takes about 5 minutes once you get some practice. It's very lightweight for car camping or at a campsite. I'd want to split it between two packs if backpacking though.
