Customer reviews for Kelty Green River 4 Four Person Tent :

“We bought this tent from Sportsman Warehouse because we had a short period of time before leaving for a motorcycle rally. We paid about $222 for the tent plus tax. Used this tent for a five night rally for 2 people and enjoyed the space it provided.

Positives:

You can stand up in the tent as soon as you enter it. With a queen size air mattress, it allows us to stand and change clothes. Many tents have their highest point in the center which means you have to step on or move your sleeping gear to use that space.

The vestibule gives us space for our riding gear and a place to sit on our Kermit chairs if it is raining.

While it didn’t rain, the tent fly does a great job of protecting the tent.

Very roomy for a four man tent. You could actually get a family of four in here!

Negatives

The entry door does have a solid closure – this means the top half of the door is screened but always see through. To change, you have to roll down the vestibule closures, or be quick!

This is a great warm weather tent but I think it would be very cold when the temps drop. No way to close up the front entry door, or seal off any of the vents in the rainfly.

The vestibule isn’t really bug proof, in heavy mosquito areas, there are plenty of places they can get in the screened in vestibule area.

My wife and I attend 4-5 motorcycle camping rallies every year and I think this tent will serve us well.”

“We are currently a family of 3. There was ample room in the tent. After spending two summer weekends in the tent we still love it. My husband has put it up and down by himself. He has not had difficulty getting it back into the bag. A few bugs find their way under the flaps into the vestibule, but it is still great for a place to leave shoes and put coolers overnight. We put a ground tarp down large enough to provide a floor for the vestibule. We had light rain both weekends and were quite pleased with the tent. The only two reasons I did not rate the tent a 5 are 1- the vestibule door is at such an angle that it is very tough to bend over to zip it all the way down (and in the middle of the night to zip in and out of two doors to go potty can be loud!). 2 – the rain fly goes all the way to the ground and we ended up undoing the back of it and rolling it up on 90 degree days to allow more air into the tent so we did not over heat everything. The tent would not have cooled down to sleeping temperatures during the day. I would not take this tent to a festival where we camped in open fields during mid-summer. Overall, we love the tent, the spaciousness (we will easily have a family of 4 in here), and the vestibule (a great place to strip down a toddler before entering the tent. (They are out of the mosquitos, but you can pick off the ticks before they go into the main tent.) This tent is a good fit for most weekend family campers. It is too heavy for backpacking, but we didn’t mind carrying it in to our primitive site two football fields away from the car.”
