About this product
Person Instant Cabin Tent – in stock at 361 Degrees Adventure in Tanzania.
The instant cabin tent with a rainfly that reaches the ground, adding a 17 sq ft covered porch for boots and bags.
Most cabin tents ship with a partial fly: a cap over the roof that leaves the mesh walls exposed. It is fine until rain comes in at an angle. This version carries a full-coverage rainfly down to the ground on adjustable panels, which changes two things. Driving rain no longer reaches the walls, and the fly extends past the door into a 17 square foot vestibule, so wet boots, a cool box and muddy bags live outside the sleeping space instead of in it.
Setup is CORE’s instant system: the poles are already attached, so you unfold the tent and push the telescoping legs out. About sixty seconds to standing, then peg it down and run the guy ropes.
Inside is 11 ft x 9 ft with 72 in of headroom and near-vertical walls, rated for two queen air beds. The mesh is no-see-um, a finer weave that stops the sandflies ordinary netting lets through. Ground vents feed cool air in, the mesh ceiling lets heat out, and a sealed electrical port takes a power cable. There is a wall organizer and a gear loft.
The full fly costs weight: 27 lbs (12.1 kg) against 23 lbs for the standard version, in a 48 in bag. If you camp in the rains, it is the version to buy.

Who It Suits
- Anyone camping through the long or short rains rather than around them
- Families who need somewhere dry to leave boots and bags
- Coastal and lakeside camps, for the no-see-um mesh as much as the fly
- Longer stays where weather will turn at least once
- Buyers choosing between this and the standard instant cabin: this is the wet-season answer
It is a 3-season tent. The full fly makes it markedly better in rain than the roof-fly version, but it is still a tall cabin shape that catches wind, so peg it down and guy it out properly.
