I have an xtremely large family six children looking for a xxl tent at least 4 pods plus large living area.Two porches would be handy also a tent where the porch area could be extended. No tent would be too large. Been looking at outwell hartford xxl with extended porch but heard rumours about leaks.Whats the largest tent on the market? any recommendations.

Well, largest tent on market could be super huge. There are some tents that sleep 24. What exactly are you looking for in a large tent? More sleeping and for how many? Or more for living space?

We need large pods as we have two travel cots and with six children need plenty of storage.We basically need more sleeping and more living space which tents sleep 24?we dont mind paying for extra pitching space!

Jen found the big one for ya! Way to go. lorrnev, she had me looking at more big tents too!

I know I saw one on ebay before that had some huge living space and pods off that for sleeping. I think I could put my house in that one.
