I bought this tent a few months back and I have already used it 4 times. It has all the space that my small family of 3 needs. I have fully committed myself to spending as much time outdoors as humanely possible and this beautifully crafted shelter is just what the doctor ordered. I’m 6’2” and I can easily stand fully up inside. The ventilation is perfect but as always a fan is absolutely necessary to circulate the air. The Set-Up and Take Down could not be more simple. Each process takes no more than 10 minutes. We love the dual entrances and the zippers are smooth as butter. If I had one suggestion it would be to add a covered Porch vestibule to the main entrance. I try to prop up the rain flap with my hiking poles they do not always stay put. Other than that this tent is absolutely wonderful. When is the 10P due to hit the market? I would scoop that up in no time if it ever did.

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.
