19' (6M) Fernweh™ Double-Door Bell Tent

"Withstood a waterfront storm which tore down trees and everything!" -Krista

Multiple Doors, Airy Layout.

The front and back doors provide for multiple entry points and allow for greater airflow. This massive 6M (19.5') canvas bell tent is a beast and a beauty. Perfect to pitch for a season on your property, or to bring out when extra guests are expected. We used rugged 11.5 oz. canvas to create a beast of a canvas tent that will last!

Oh, and what’s with the name?  Well Fernweh [PRON “FERN – way”] is German for farsickness – the opposite of homesickness - or a longing to break free and travel.
