5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent shelter for beach, August 10, 2009

We just purchased this for our summer beach vacation. Set up was very easy and doable in moderate wind. Very light and much better sun protection than an umbrella. Stakes very easily and can also be weighted down with 4 small attached bags that can be filled with sand or rocks. Can easily seat 2 chairs inside of it and sit and enjoy the beach. The kids also loved playing inside of it. Very easy to collapse and roll up; we were able to get almost all of the sand out of it each day. Over-all a nice addition to our annual beach trek. Will also use as a secondary shelter for car camping, but wouldn't use as a tent in inclimate weather.

Great "little" tent for setting up on the beach. I say "little" because I didn't pay much attention to the measurements given. This baby is 9 feet across. Plenty of room to keep a picnic out of the sun. Sets up pretty easily. Well made - typical Kelty quality. Don't try to camp out in this though! I doubt if it would hold up to a storm...

4.0 out of 5 stars Perfect for shade and privacy, November 17, 2010

I bought this cabana for shade in the desert. there are no trees or anything else for shade, so this Kelty Cabana was a perfect fit.

At night we kept our food on a table inside the cabana so the local wildlife wouldn't be eating our dinner. For this purpose it was decent but not perfect because it doesn't zip completely closed. If it zipped all the way, it would have got 5 stars. I wish I knew why they didn't just make the zipper extend another 3 feet.

In the morning we use it to change into riding gear, and this thing really gives you privacy.

in the afternoon we use it for shade, and as long as the windows are down, it works great. We also keep our cooler inside it to keep the sun from melting the ice too fast, and the cooler doubles as a seat.

If you are going to use in a windy area, I would buy some good tent spikes. This thing held up with 30mph gusts, but only because I used 10" galvanized tent spikes. It will catch wind like a kite otherwise.

If you are tent camping, I recommend buying this cabana for shade and privacy when using your sleeping tent is just too hot or inconvenient.
