3 Best Ozark Trail Tents of 2022 for Large Families & Queen Mattresses

Perhaps our two favorites are camping tent additions that connect to the frame of the shelter and leverage the stability of the 10×10 frame to support a camping tent structure. The weight of this Ozark Trail is lighter than most of the same size alternative steel frame canopy tents, coming in right about 29 lbs. From a positive perspective, the lightweight design increases portability which is certainly important in carrying the tent to its intended location. From a negative perspective, the weight is indicative of a lack of high quality material and components used throughout the shelter.

However, something like the Ozark Trail 10 person 3 room tent will force you to get a little more creative, given the sloped curves of the walls. The tent itself is nice and roomy, and boasts a 6-foot peak height to make changing clothes a drama-free endeavor. This clever SUV tent is made of polyester taffeta and connects to your trunk, adding plenty of storage and snoozing space. It’s a standalone tent too (in case you want to transition). Accommodating five people in a spacious 10′ x 10′ interior with over 7.6′ height, we think it’s a brilliant large family tent option.

With this 10 person tent, however, that’s not going to happen. The type of tent you pick will also depend on the time of the year you camp. In general, tents are designed for 3-season use-  spring, summer, and fall. Check the exact dimensions of the tent and the availability of storage spaces. Remember, if you use inflatable mattresses and sleeping bags, these will take up space too.

Larger tents will allow you to set up queen-sized mattresses and extra chairs. For glamping, it’s best to choose some extra space that offers the best comfort. Our top product, the 14 person cabin tent, comes with 4 spacious rooms and a liberal central height. You also get a simple setup, excellent ventilation with 12 windows, and a mesh roof for enjoying the views.

Few things are as important as your shelter when it comes to camping. In particular, we like how the Ozark Trail 11 person instant cabin tent provides a large amount of space, privacy, and weather protection. And not only that, but it also goes up in a matter of minutes, do to the instant design.

For starters, we found the best Ozark tent to be the 14 person cabin tent, which scored just the right marks to emerge as the topper. The first step is to find a nice flat piece of ground and get all six of the corners staked out. When it’s done, the tent should have a nice even hexagonal shape.
