Great Quality Easy Set Up

Used my six person tent for the first time this weekend. Overall loved it. I have camped. all my life and I have no complaints with this tent. I was nicely surprised how easily the poles went in and the tent popped right up. I tried to cut corners and hook the poles before I pushed it up, which did not work. It is best to follow the directions. Lol. The footprint is a great plus. Better and easier than most other footprints in my opinion. Easy setup with one. Real easy setup with two. Nice bag. Quality poles with bells and whistles. I expect this tent to last a long time. Woo hoo!

Great Tent, Again

Great tent to replace my 4-5 year-old almost perfect Halo 6p. I’d thought it was indestructible, but it didn’t stand up to a flying chair from a neighboring site during a thunderstorm. Although the Limestone has slightly less floor area, it feels larger since the walls are more vertical than the Halo’s. I’m 6’3” and can walk around upright in more than half the tent. Both vestibules are smaller than the Halo’s, but I’d never really needed/used the enormous front vestibule of the Halo. The Limestone’s vestibule held my chair with no problem and will hold my bike with no problem on the next trip. Just did a 3-day trip in rain and 35+mph gusts and the Limestone appeared to be every bit as sturdy as the Halo. Added benefits: it’s lighter, packs smaller, and is slightly easier to set up since it’s got one fewer pole and the rain fly is smaller and easier to handle. Although I do appreciate the increased privacy from the non-mesh white front door, I almost wish it had see-through mesh and a zippered privacy screen like the Halo. We’ll see how that affects summer ventilation. For this winter trip, ventilation was great - no condensation at all on those 35 degree nights. Bottom line is that Marmot knocked it out of the park again.

Keeps Us Dry And Comfortable!

We've had our Limestone 6p for about 8 camping seasons in the PNW. I got it after constantly getting wet in our other tents and so that my tall husband could stand up comfortably and move around. It felt like $$$ at the time but it has been amazing which is why I'm here to write this review. I love the extra dry front and back porch areas for shoes and things we want to protect. Nice large doors for coming and going, lots of pockets inside and a hook to hang a light. So quick and easy to put up. We're always careful to store dry and clean. For the first time this year, it had one tiny drip coming through the rainfly where the seam tape was peeling up. (I've submitted my first warranty claim so we'll see how that process works.) Admittedly, most of our camping is in forested areas but I can see how the lightweight poles might not hold up as well in a place with high winds. 100% would buy this tent again.

Quick Setup

I purchased our tent Christmas 2015 and started camping with it in 2016. We have camped in her 20-48 days per year from as early as April to the beginning of November. Most of our tent’s time was spent in the Canadian Rockies in a variety of weather. She has experienced Ontario, Manitoba, Saskatchewan, Alberta, British Columbia, Northwest Territories and North and South Dakota. She has kept us dry, cool, warm and cozy all these years. Both tent zippers to the front and back have been replaced. The fly has numerous patches. This year 2 sections of both poles were bent during a strong wind while trying to set her up in Grasslands National Park in Saskatchewan. Unfortunately they cannot be straightened. The fly is very thin from exposure to various types of weather. I chose the Limestone tent as it’s tall enough to stand up in, otherwise my husband wouldn’t have agreed to camp in a tent. It’s also very easy to assemble, take down and store in provided bag. The main tent is still in great shape. My husband is 81 and his memory is starting to fail. He wants to continue to camp as long as he is able, therefore, having the same tent would be beneficial as with a little reminding, he can still assist in tent assembly and take down. She will last a couple of more trips this year then I’ll be searching for a replacement.

Not That Great

We've had problems with bent and broken poles and the carry bag ripping within the first year of use. The quality isn't what you'd expect.
