Hi

I have the outwell oklahoma day tent. We use this for sitting in and it is great, but I am looking for a canopy/porch or extension for storage and cooking under.

I know outwell dont make one but I am wondering if there is a universal one or one from another tent I can make fit.

Any help pictures or ideas appreciated.

Thanks Rob

I awlays thought that was the idea behind the Oklaholma - to be used for storage and cooking ?    Maybe a second one then would be the answer ?  one for storage and one for sitting ?

Hi

Thanks for reply's. the problem we have is we have a vw camper and 2 very young children. The children go to bed at about7ish in the camper and we use the tent for sitting in/socialising (usualy go away with a group of family/friends) when there are at least 4 adults with chairs we dont have room for cooking gear etc.

Will have a look at canopys sugested but really fancied a porch type thing that would attach to day tent and be enclosed for wet weather and safe for storage

When we were away we saw some great extensions and I was going to buy one roughly the right size and try to adapt it. Just wondered if any one else had tried this

 

Thanks again Rob

I have the Oklahoma daytent and use a Decathlon tarp attached for extra space. It works great.

What about buying an enclosed porch extension and attach it over the vw camper? Use this for storage and cooking. Saw someone using a Gelert one in exactly this way last weekend (I think it was the evora??)

He made the original post in 2009, hopefully he's managed to sort it out now!
