For those of us taller campers, getting changed in a tent — or doing just about anything besides sleeping — can lead to some awkward body contortions. Short, domed tents tend to be the norm. They may maximize the sleeping-space-to-weight ratio, but getting around in them isn’t comfortable. REI’s Grand Hut 6 takes a different approach, with nearly vertical walls and a ceiling that soars 6 feet, 6 inches high. You can literally do jumping jacks in this thing.

On a rainy day, you could set up camp chairs inside, and the two large D-shaped doors make getting in and out a breeze. On dry nights, enjoy the bug-proof mesh ceiling that offers a view of the stars, and an easy-to-install waterproof rain fly will protect you from the weather when necessary. The tent is easy to set up, and while it’s not light — 16 pounds out of the box — it works fine for any car-camping trip. Per the sardinelike rating conventions all tents seem to use, this is dubbed a six-person tent. Sure, in a pinch. Realistically it has plenty of room for two adults and several kids. Your biggest issue may be keeping the kids from jumping on the air mattresses.
