Eureka Timberline Outfitter 4 9- by 7-Foot Four-Person Tent
Customer Review: So far, so good
I must say, the assembly instructions were horrendous! However, with a little common sense, one can easily figure out how to put this tent up. Seems like a nice quality and sturdy tent, so far. Perfect size for two people with "stuff."
Customer Review: Best Boy Scout Tent.. Hands Down
I am a Scoutmaster. We have purchased many tents in the past for trials. Mostly Eureka tents but we have some Coleman, North Peak, ect... The last set of tents we purchased were the Eureka Timberline 4 (NOT THE OUTFITTER). This is a HUGE mistake. We camp between 1 - 3 times a month rain or shine, cold or hot. We have two other outfitters that were purchased back in 1988 that are still in full operation. Every other tent (including the regular timberlines from Eureka) just do not hold up to the use we put these things through. The extra heavy flooring that is factory sealed does not allow water in PERIOD. The first time we took the four new ones out that we recently purchased, there was literely a stream of water three feet wide going UNDER the tent. In one night, we had 2.8 inches of rain in a 3 hour period. Not one drop got through the new Eureka Timberline Outfitter 4's Rainfly or door/window zippers. The kids stayed in their tents and I was really suprised that there was not even condensation on the inside of their tents from their breath. HOWEVER, the boys that were in the old Timberline 4's (not the outfitter series) were DRENCHED. We had seamsealed the tents (something for which the outfitters you NEVER have to do) but it still got through because of the rough use we put them through split the seamseal resin We had just applied it in March but had went on 4 campouts since then. I called the company about it, I didn't know that EACH time you put up and take down your tent, you are supposed to seamseal. Anyway, best tent ever made for a Boy Scout Troop or anyone that does a lot of camping. If you need a bigger tent, go with the Timberline Outfitter 6. That is what I use. We fit two adults with cots in it comfortably. The only water that got into it was when I dragged in my drenched body from the rain. Sincerely Owl Patrol Memeber
During the hot summer months, people worldwide tend to flock to different holiday destinations in order to escape their normal every day lives. It may be the perfect chance to get away with friends and family and the best thing is that there is an endless choice of places to go.
The problem is however, that it can be a tough choice when it comes to finding a travel destination to suit you. A lot of the time, people are set on choosing a beach location and there are certainly many different places to choose from!
Choosing the Best Beach Vacation for you
The beach is certainly a hotspot when it comes to holiday vacations. This is because nearly everyone loves spending hot summer days on the sand sunning themselves and even taking a swim in the sea. There are some great advantages as well as disadvantages, when it comes to going to some of the most popular beaches around.
The advantages of going to a popular beach are that it is beautiful, sunny and incredibly relaxing, but the disadvantage can be that it will be extremely busy and at times overcrowded. There may be thousands of people at one of the popular beaches. So it is a good idea to have a look around at some of the available beaches to see if there are any quieter ones if you would like to relax more.
There are many holiday makers out there that believe that the coastal locations are the only places that have a beach, but this is simply not the case. Shorelines and rivers can be transformed into a beach and these beaches are known as inland beaches. However, the problem with these beaches is that people are often worried about the lack of accommodation that is available. There are quite a few places to stay at around inland beaches and although they do not usually include hotels, there is still a great selection of private cottage rentals around.
Why Should You Choose a Private Holiday Cottage?
You can find holiday cottages and cabins situated around some of the inland beaches and some of them are situated right on the shoreline, giving you great views and amazing surroundings. A lot of these cottages and cabins have been modernised and they are even compared to some houses because of the way that they have been decorated. Most of these holiday homes come fully furnished with a great selection of bedrooms as well as other essential rooms.
These homes always continue to rise in popularity, with one of the main reasons being due to their proximity to the water. This means that any shoreline that is in front of your holiday home will be exclusively yours whilst you are staying there. Moreover, if you work in Costa Blanca then living near the beach can mean a holiday every day of the year!
