We've taken the timeless bell tent concept and enriched it with features that prioritize convenience, comfort, aesthetics, and adaptability. The Ultimate version encompasses all aspects required for family camping, upscale camping experiences, relaxed glamping, festival outings, garden gatherings, car camping, leisurely backyard lounging, and three-season utilization.
The robust rip-stop groundsheet, resistant to water and moisture, is affixed to the tent via a robust size 10 zipper encircling the tent's perimeter. This design allows you to roll up the canvas sidewalls to invite in the fresh breeze or detach the floor entirely for transportation, cleaning, storage, or the delightful sensation of grass beneath your feet.

Mesh Walls: Ultimate 360° Protection & Ventilation CanvasCamp's Sibley Ultimate series now includes a no-see-um mesh wall to provide 360° of ventilation and bug protection. The mesh wall zips onto the groundsheet and canopy with a heavy duty #10 zipper, and attaches to the built in mesh door with extra sticky Velcro for a secure seal. When not in use the mesh wall can be removed entirely, or rolled up and stowed neatly with the built in hook and loop system on the interior of the canopy. A double wall bell tent is a popular option to keep cool when camping in hot and humid weather - while also minimizing contact with bugs that can carry vector borne illnesses like Zika and West Nile. |

Spring Loaded Tri-Pod Pole Frame To maximize useable space in our smallest Sibley we’ve designed a tri-pod pole system instead of the traditional center poles available on our larger bell tents. The 10 piece frame is spring loaded for easy set up. Each leg of the tri-pod is comprised of two pole sections which attach to a 3 pronged peak piece. Rubber pole feet protect the tent and floor from the pole ends. Although the 300 isn’t as easy to pitch as the 400 or 500 with their single center pole, once up this little guy is as tough as they come; wind tested to 120kmph (75mph). The top of the A-frame door is equipped with a pin that sits in a grommet at the peak of the door ensuring proper placement. A rain cap is then placed over the pin and grommet to keep rain from running down the poles. The canvas door zips together vertically and along the bathtub floor. Each side of the door is equipped with loops and ropes to neatly tie back the canvas doors to hold them open when not in use. |

Roll Up Side Walls and Zipper Groundsheet Our Ultimate groundsheets attach to the tent with a zipper and are made of durable, thermally welded, PVC (540 gr/m² or 15.93 oz/yd²). Completely water and vapor impenetrable, the ‘bathtub style’ floor rises 4 inches high to keep you dry even in standing water. Using a heavy duty size 10 zipper to attach the sidewall to the groundsheet, you can unzip the floor to roll up the canvas walls for maximum ventilation, or remove the groundsheet entirely for transport, storage, cleaning, or to enjoy the grass or sand beneath your feet. A tail gate style system of secure hooks and loops allows you to drop the bathtub wall near the door and peg it flat to prevent tripping and facilitate easy cleaning. A small gap between the two zippers in the back allows an electrical cord to enter the tent without compromising protection from rain and bugs. |

Pro Stakes and Pegs Specially designed for high wind or hard and rocky ground, our Pro stakes are made from the same high quality nickel plated steel our poles are made from. CanvasCamp exclusive Pro guy line stakes are 24cm (9.5 inches) angled and serrated to hold up to pounding into frozen or rocky round. A T shaped hook is welded securely to the stop to prevent guy lines from slipping off even in high wind. Pro groundsheet pegs are 50% thicker than standard pegs. The pegs for the floor are round to slip through the grommets on the groundsheet, and have a hook shaped top and hold the floor in place. |

Integrated Mesh Door The Sibley 300 Ultimate includes a sewn in no-see-um mesh door in addition to the traditional canvas door. The tent is equipped with loops on either side of the door to neatly tie back the mesh door when not in use. |
 |
Windows and Vents Every Sibley comes complete with windows and vents covered in no-seeum mesh to keep the bugs out while providing ventilation and airflow. Our half moon windows have zip up covers to allow you to customize your desired level of ventilation and privacy. Each window is equipped with loop fasteners to neatly hold the covers when the windows are unzipped. There are 3 windows and 3 vents on the Sibley 300. |

Pro Guy Lines and Tensioners First time set up is a breeze with the Pro guy lines which are pre-attached to the tent and threaded through our tensioners. The Pro grade guy lines have been upgraded with corded nylon rope to make adjusting the tension on the line easier. Pro guy lines have are 5mm thick and have an additional UV resistant treatment. Plastic tensioners prevent edges from cutting into the guy lines and prolong the life of your tent. |

Classic Canvas Our Classic Canvas (320 gr/m² or 9.5 oz/yd²) on the Ultimate, Deluxe, and Standard series is the perfect balance of performance and breathability. Our proprietary treatment enhances the natural water resistance of canvas, and is excellent protection for moderate climates and casual use. Repairable and retreatable, a properly maintained Classic Canvas tent can last for years. Double stitched, flat-felled roof and side wall seams, seam gussets, and double-layer construction at all stress points create a classic and durable bell tent. For variable climates, four season, or long term use check out our Pro canvas on the Pro and ProTech Series. 100% Cotton canvas provides a natural waterproofing and breathability. Cotton fibers swell when damp, the tight weave prevents rain from penetrating and the surface tension of moisture drops on the outside combined with the steep angle of the canopy allows water to bead and run off. Moisture held in the air on the inside is still able to escape directly through the fabric, keeping internal humidity low and mitigating condensation. Check out our FAQ for more information than you could ever need to know about cotton canvas and proper tent maintenance. |

100% Cotton Canvas Our Sibley canvas is made exclusively from 100% cotton. Cotton is made from the seed hair of this hardy and drought tolerant plant. Sustainable, renewable, and one of the most biodegradable fabrics on earth. Our canvas is a soft, natural, earthy beige that glows inside and out with natural or artificial light. CanvasCamp is the only tent manufacture to carry the official Seal of Cotton®. |

Stove Compatibility All CanvasCamp tents are easily adaptable for use with a wood burning tent stove. Proper stove placement is dependent on stove size, tent size, flu exit style, desired temperature, and the environment you intend to camp in. One size fits all, pre-installed stove jacks fail to provide customers with the level of customization necessary to achieve ideal stove placement and maximum utility. To ensure proper placement and ideal efficiency, CanvasCamp offers modular stove jacks (sold separately) that can be easily installed in any cotton canvas bell tent in just a few minutes. Stove jacks are available in a variety of shapes and sizes so you can choose the jack that fits your tent and stove perfectly. Read our blog or contact us to learn more about the best stove and placement for your specific application. Canvas bell tents are not for use with open fire pits. Fire safety is the responsibility of the user. We encourage you to educate yourself and practice vigilant fire safety. Read our FAQ and blogs to learn more about fire safety. Do not hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or concerns at any time. Always check local fire restrictions prior to starting a fire as rules and regulations may change frequently throughout the year. CanvasCamp cannot be held liable for any damage or injury to persons or property resulting from the use or misuse of fire or flammable materials in or around our tents. |
