Happy 10th Birthday Tentsile!
We’re celebrating 10 wonderful years of Tentsile! And what an incredible adventure it has been. We could not be prouder of what we’ve achieved this past decade. From our first gigantic prototype, hand stitched in our Founder’s living room, to the entire range of suspended Tree Tents and Giant Hammocks we have now - we’ve come very a long way!
Camping in America – The State of Virginia
The Old Dominion has some of the most attractive natural forests, hiking trails and bodies of water. Virginia camping can be in different sorts - including campsites, campgrounds (both established and dispersed) and wild/backcountry camping.
Camping in America – The State of Georgia
The Empire State of the South (or The Peach State) is a fantastic location for camping due to its huge selection of state parks, natural reserves, hiking trails, campgrounds, national forests and established campsites. In this ultimate guide, we will try to cover everything you need to know when planning to camp in Georgia.
Where to Camp in Massachusetts
Massachusetts is a state ripe with camping opportunities, whether they are in the assorted campgrounds and resorts or along hiking trails and in state parks. A hotspot for tourism and travel, the state is appealing for out-of-staters and gives many great choices for locals too...
Treehouses vs Tree Tents
We’ve all daydreamed about building the perfect Treehouse in our backyard – whether it’s for the little ones to play in all year round, or for us adults to escape for a cup of tea and some peace and quiet! As kids, we could imagine nothing better than spending hours in our very own secret backyard treehouse, with only our imaginations and creativity (and a few birds) for company. Getting our parents to build one was a different matter altogether…
Prepare For Adventure
With the spring camping season just around the corner, now is a great time to test run your gear and take any necessary steps to refresh and renew your tent before it sees action...
Design and Craftmanship
The idea comes first, then you hone that until you get all the wrinkles out. It is only after that, you can start perfecting the craftsmanship. A tweak here and a tightening of the details there. It takes a while just like learning how to paint. You can’t hope to get a masterpiece out on your first try. With products, you need to send it out into the world, listen to the feedback, refine it and go again, until everyone’s experience of it is the same. So that’s what we did! We took on our customers’ feedback – good and bad - and used it to develop the range by adding new features.
A Valentines Date in the Trees!
This year, why not ditch the cliche bunch of roses and opt outside instead. Besides, what could be more romantic than a date in a secluded forest! Here’s our itinerary for a perfect date in the trees…
Our Journey to a Million Trees
Tentsile’s love of Nature is at the very core of everything we do. Every tent we design, make, and sell is destined for a lifetime of adventures in the Forest.
Gear Check – Plan Ahead and Get Prepared
We’ve all done it - left our gear check until the night before going on a camping trip and then find out something’s broken or missing or remembered that something was supposed to have been fixed after the last time you went out, but you’ve forgotten to do anything about it!
