Coleman Skylodge 12-Person Tent

The Coleman Skylodge 12-Person Tent offers a roomy 19 x 10 ft footprint with a peak height of 7.4 ft, providing ample space for campers to move around comfortably. Its screened front room (5 x 10 ft) serves as a versatile area for gear storage or lounging, though it lacks a floor, limiting its use during wet conditions. The tent features Coleman's WeatherTec™ system, including welded corners and inverted seams, to help keep water out. While the manufacturer claims it can accommodate up to 12 people, a more realistic and comfortable occupancy is around 6–8 campers with gear. The color-coded poles and sleeves facilitate an easier setup process, but the tent's substantial weight (40.6 lbs) and packed size (48 x 12 inches) make it more suitable for car camping rather than backpacking. Overall, the Skylodge is a solid choice for families or groups prioritizing space and comfort in fair-weather conditions.
