Ozark Trail 9 x 8 Sport Dome Tent
The 9 x 8 Sport Dome Tent has been discontinued. If you're looking for something new, check out the best tents and shelters for 2024.
I purchased this tent to use with my 9 year a Webelos Scout for a Webelos Woods Camping Weekend. We went camping the weekend of Oct 24th at Camp Citta in Barnegat, NJ.
Despite torrential downpours ~ 2" rain in an hour the 4-person Ozark Dome Tent held up very well we had several inches of water puddling in our site but only a minimal amount of water in the tent. I was able to clean up the water in the morning with a kitchen towel. With water all around the tent and sleeping on our Ozark air mattresses we were very comfortable.
My son slept threw all the excitement. Other campers' tents had a lot of water, our Ozark was fine. I had my doubts and was just hoping for a dry weekend when I bought this tent at Walmart but would recommend it to others after using it this weekend. I look forward to next year when we return to Camp Citta for a week.

Great tent. I bought it as a temporary tent and now it has been on 10 backcountry trips with me, one being a Northern Ontario winter camp.
It's very durable and at an amazing price for those who don't want to drop a ton of cash just to go camping.
Only warning I will give is make sure you set it up at home for the first time with instructions. It's not the easiest tent to set up solo.
Price Paid: $45
I bought this tent two years ago and its bad@$$. I live in ohio and this tent went thru 70 mph winds, heavy down pours, thunderstorms and held up strong. I love this tent for its inside racks and the side doors which make it nice for easy access to coolers. Tough Tent. A+++++ 100% 10/10 is my ratting.
Design: excellent
Sleeps: 4
Ease of Setup: Needs at least 2 men
Weight: good weight for a tent
Price Paid: $46
I've used this tent for two week long vacations and have poles break both times. Duct tape was used to keep it some what usable. Better poles are needed. Also with the fly on there is no ventilation due to the fact that it covers up the entire screen top.
Sleeps: 3
Ease of Setup: poles get caught on material when setting up.
