1-3 Person Tents

Choosing A 1-3 Person Tent

A 1-3 person tent is a practical choice when you want a compact camping shelter without the extra bulk of a larger family tent. This size range is commonly used by solo campers, couples and small groups who want a tent that is easier to set up, carry and store.

When comparing 1-3 person tents, consider how much sleeping space you need, whether you will keep bags inside the tent, and how important packed size is for your trip. A smaller tent can be easier to manage for short getaways, hiking trips, festivals, beach camping and overnight outdoor adventures.
