  • HAMMOCK AND A TENT IN ONE: Patented design with a unique arch pole/spreader bar system that allows for use suspended between two objects/trees as a hammock

Description

The patented design allows for use suspended, as a hammock, or on the ground, as a tent, greatly increasing camping terrain options that are often limited by shelter type. The spreader bar and arch pole system keeps the bed of the hammock flat and taut, eliminating much of the uncomfortable 'cocoon' and 'banana' effect. Its built-in no-see-um bug net and attachable rainfly means you don’t need to worry about pesky insects or unpredictable weather conditions. The Lawson Blue Ridge Camping Hammock is particularly versatile because it can act as a tent or a hammock due to these two features. The first is two arching support poles for the mosquito netting and rain fly. The arched poles are attached at both ends and lift the top of the hammock up like an elongated dome tent, which gives you enough room to sit up and rummage around easily. Second, a unique spread bar system, which is attached to the ropes at the ends of the hammock and spreads the support ropes over a flatter area. This keeps the floor more stable in the air as well as reduces the Hammock sag. When pitched on the ground, it all comes together to create a small bivy tent. The Lawson Blue Ridge Camping Hammock has proven itself as the go-to hammock by countless outdoor experts. From National Geographic to Men's Journal, the Lawson Blue Ridge Camping Hammock has shown it's one of the best on the market for your needs. Waterproof ripstop full-coverage rainfly attaches directly to the hammock with no need for additional trees or staking like traditional hammock tarps. Integrated no-see-um mosquito netting keeps bugs out. Best of all, everything fits into the provided stuff sack for easy packing. Two interior storage pockets for cell phones, etc. Two ceiling O-rings for attaching reading light, etc. (Hammock Straps not included). Lawson Hammock uses only the highest quality materials including waterproof ripstop nylon and polyester. Strong spreader bars and shock-corded aluminum arch poles are used for the rock-solid canopy. With a weight capacity of 275 lbs. the Blue Ridge Camping Hammock is build to last. Lightweight, easy to set up, and perfect for all types of camping or anyone looking for a comfortable, bug/waterproof place to relax or sleep. Very roomy interior; bed of the hammock is approx. 90"x42". Weight capacity 275 lbs. Packed weight is approx. 4.25lbs (including poles, rainfly, and stuff sack). Packs down to approx. 22"x6". Please Note: Our "Hammock Only" option does not include suspension straps. This is our baseline option since many consumers have hammock straps from previous purchases and don't want to pay for extras.

Owned one for 13 years. Just bought a replacement.
Style: Hammock
I've camped on several continents with this tent. It most certainly isn't for everyone, as it requires a bit of finesse when sleeping in it. However, if you want to pull up and pitch a tent in 5 minutes (realistically), and break it down again in the same timeframe, I don't know of a faster tent to pitch. Carabiners are attached to both ends for quick attachment to tree savers, which are straps with loops that go around trees as slip knots. Pitching is as fast as: 1. Finding two trees roughly 15'-20' apart. 2. Throwing the straps around tree one and then tree two 3. Unrolling the tent and clipping it to tree one 4. Hold it off the ground (yes! no dirt!) and clip it to the strap on tree 2 5. Adjust (if necessary) to level it out and stretch it tighter (if you like it tight) 6. Push 2 4ft tent poles into place (takes less than a minute). Done. It reads about as long as it takes. The hardest part is breakdown, when you have to roll the tent back up. If the ground is wet, I do this while standing (granted, I'm a little taller than most, so it may not work for everyone) and straight back into the bag. Also, if you want, you don't have to put the poles in and can use it like an ordinary hammock. The trick to sleeping, is not to lie directly inline with the hammock but to turn diagonal, so that the ends twist. This makes it much flatter and more comfortable for sleeping. I get asked if it flips. The tighter you pull the tent, the more unstable it becomes. So it's a balancing act. Getting into/out of the tent is not for everyone either. This takes some balance. You lean far back onto the tent and then let your weight get carried. Then pivot and slip into the tent. To get out again, assume a similar position from inside the tent, then extend your feet out and rotate down onto them. I clip my shoes/boots to a carabiner on the loop right outside the tent door so that bugs and other stuff doesn't get into them, plus, they are easy to put on while still in the tent. I've slept on cliff faces, with amazing views in Europe, between palm trees directly on the beach, between mangroves over the water and right off the road in more places than I can count, as I could pull off and quickly pitch the tent. If there are no trees, the tent still works on the ground, without an issue. They say it is a 2-man tent, but I haven't tried that and am skeptical it would work... Finally, hammocks are cold at night which is great in hot environments, as it works like built-in air conditioning. The bottom of the tent is always cooled off by passing air. In colder weather, a sleeping pad and/or quilt is an absolute must. You'll get cold fast if you don't take a pad out with you. For me, it is the one-size-fits-all tent that I take everywhere. it isn't light, it isn't small, but it works nearly everywhere for one person. ... show more

Coolest tent in camp ground
Style: Hammock
I used this hammock tent as a hammock once so far. it was 40 degrees. While I love hammocks and this this is very nice. It was a very cold night. To make it worst, I had it infront of a cave entrance. I wish I had a pad under me for extra insulation. My next trip is going to be a cold trip. I will use a pad and also a bag liner too. I also used this once as a ground tent. It was mid august and very hot outside. With chances of rain I put the rainfly on. Going to the ground it left no room for air. Smothering I didn't last but a few minutes inside and pulled the fly half way down and took chances with rain. Luckily it didn't rain. My next trip will be to a rock arch that gets less than 6 people a year visit. It rolls up small and is light enough. I recommend a tree hugger wrap and a tention system called whoopie sling. google that. I read alot of other reviews saying this turns over easy. A I said i love hammocks. I've had backyard hammocks for years. If it turns over with you in it.. You just don't know how to use a hammock. Enpty, This will turn over. The arch poles weigh more than the hammock part. This is why it has tie loops on the 4 corners. To hold it upright. Once your in the weight sags it enough those corner ties are loose. Buy a cheap $16 hiker hammock and practice getting in & out and staying upright. Before you teat up this nice lawson blue ridge. BTW, When I was over the cave. It was a caving festival ( i'm a caver ). There was over 200 campers on the property. I had the tent that was getting photographed by dozens of people. Someone walking by would see it and take a PIC of it. They would tell someone and they'd come down with a camera. attached is my PIC i took. Buy this nad you too can be the hit of the campground. ... show more

Quick & Easy set up, worked well for backpacking.
Style: Hammock
**UPDATE** I have used it suspended now, as well as staked to the ground, and it worked well both ways. Attached an image. I took this backpacking and was satisfied with it. Plenty of room for me (5'10 169 lbs) plus all of my gear to be inside with me, but I would not recommend trying to cram another person in here unless you are both very thin side sleepers who plan to house gear outside the tent. I've only used it on the ground so far and have yet to suspend it between trees. If you plan to use this on a solid surface where you can't stake it in, then you will still need to bring tree straps to wrap around something at each end because the tent part won't stay up if you don't have tension. There is a thin cord where the spreader bars are located that you hook to the arch poles to keep the tent up, and obviously that won't work without the ends anchored down somehow. It's no 1.5 lb backpacking tent, but it's a hell of a lot cheaper, more versatile and still fit on my 55L pack fine with all other gear inside. I hiked 9 miles, some of it pretty damn rugged, just fine with this thing on my pack. I'm just an average 33 year old mom and not a super athlete, so I think this would work as a decent backpacking tent for most people if you don't want to part with another $200 to save a few pounds of weight. I laid mine on a stone pad under an open shelter and wrapped one strap around a stone pillar and the other around the bottom of a heavy bench made out of logs and it worked fine, but I feel those thin cords that hold the tent up need to be a bit more heavy duty. Set up was quick and easy. Just be sure to buy a couple good tent stakes and tree straps or you'll be screwed for the reason listed above. The spot that you wrap the tree straps or rope through did not have a metal ring as I was expecting (the item description never indicated that was the case; it was just my expectation). The cord leading from the spreader bars is looped and knotted where you attach and suspend it. I'm sure it's safe, but I couldn't fully trust it and wouldn't suspend this thing too high off the ground personally. I was overall happy with the hammock and like the versatility of it which allows me to camp on various terrain. I felt for the price, it would have been nice if it came with tent stakes, tree straps and carabiners, but I am still happy with the product as long as it holds up over time. I'll update the review if I encounter any issues during future trips. ... show more

It works well for me!
Style: Hammock
It works fantastic, easy set up, completely surrounded by mosquito net, no bugs made it through. Rainfly fits well & gives full coverage. Comfortable through the night, & I slept very well. Would recommend. Great for kayak camping. Lightweight & durable.

LAWSON Hammock-- AWESOME! (homemade underquilt)
Style: Hammock
I'm 47. 220lbs. This is my first hammock. Preparing for one week trip to Boundary Waters; I've slept in this hammock a few times overnight to work out any issues. 1. I really need those side tie-downs. The stability is awesome with those. And, you don't need all four. Just two works fine. I'm more than happy to deal with those with the incredible comfort this product supplies. I've slept on my back, side and belly with no issues at all. 2. The space is incredible! The little rings that hang down inside can be easily tied together with some cord for a long "ridge line" to secure things to. 3. I bought a 10X10 tarp because I like the open air. I am also worried about having to set up or tear down in the rain. I still bring the Lawson Tarp in case the wind is very very bad or the rain decides to come sideways. Love the Larson Tarp, I just don't want to be so bottled up. 4. This is my under quilt: OutdoorsmanLab Lightweight Camping Sleeping Bag. I used wife's sewing machine and stitched on some webbing and shock cord. A few clips. And there you go. Its a perfect summer under quilt. I don't need my ThermoRest now. 5. Had a simple issue upon purchase and the owner of Lawson fixed it immediately without any hesitation. GREAT CUSTOMER SVC! I LOVE THIS HAMMOCK. Pics are from my backyard. UPDATE: after my trip to the Boundary Waters I learned a lot. 1. IF you like a lay flat like me, I keep the hammock tightly pulled between the trees. Needs guy lines. 2. IF you like a more traditional curved lay. It is more stable and does not need guy lines. 3. This is not an ultra light set up. The weight really added up over the miles. OK for me, not for everybody. ... show more

Product and seller ain't that great.
Style: Hammock
The Lawson hammock seems good right out of the box but, after 3 uses shows signs of wear with frayed suspension lines and broken grommets in the spreader bar. The seller won't stand behind the product and Lawson won't do anything either. This is an expensive product and I expected better. If you want a good experience I would avoid both this hammock and the seller. You will only get the run around from both. ... show more

Avoid the seller Mtn Outlet...but give the hammock a shot.
Style: Hammock
The seller shipped the hammock in its original box with little protection (1 layer of plastic wrap). The box arrived damaged on all four corners and dirty (plastic wrap picked up loose hair, dirt, and other trash.) I got the hammock out of the box and It appeared used. No tags, or wrapping. I open the hammock up and the first thing I notice is leaves and a footprint. Call me crazy, but I'm pretty sure it was used. I clean it up hang it in my garage for testing...and the first thing I notice is a small hole in the bug net just above my face. I then check the rain fly and it has holes and loose stitching on every corner. Needless to say I packed this up just as fast as I got it out. The hammock itself seemed like a good hammock and I might buy it again, but not from this seller. I would avoid Mnt Outlet. ... show more

Great Hammock, Crappy Tent
Style: Hammock
I like the Lawson as a hammock but NOT as a tent I like the way that it sets up and packs up. The overall weight is fine. I don’t see it as a backpacking solution although that’s mostly a personal bias. My interest is for motorcycle camping and for that it’s ideal. I like the roominess in comparison to my Hennessey Explorer Deluxe Asym. And I like that it’s a flatter lay than gathered-end hammocks. Some reviewers have complained of tippiness but I haven’t found that to be the case once inside. Ingress is a bit awkward, but I find once I get my butt in the center it’s all good from there. For those who still feel too precarious there are loops at each corner that can be guyed to pegs for rock-solid stability. I much prefer the soothing, baby-in-a-cradle swing as I drift off to sleep. In terms of sleep I tend to change positions a few times during the night, but I’m mostly a side sleeper. Even though I sleep great in my Hennessey, I find it easier to get comfy in the Lawson. The two pockets are handy but a couple more wouldn’t hurt - especially a bottle holder. The bug mesh is good quality as are all the materials and the zippers. The aluminum hoops at each end seem strong and are easy to install. The bungee at each end to pull the hoops apart are pretty wimpy, which becomes more of an issue in tent mode. Speaking of which, here is where it all goes pear-shaped from my perspective. First of all, full disclosure: I’m 6’2”, 230lbs. I used to be what people considered “athletic” although having just turned 70 that’s a bit of hyperbole these days. I love hammock camping because I no longer enjoy crawling around on the ground like a five year-old in a cardboard “fort”. I love being able to swing my legs around and drop right into my camp shoes when nature calls at 3am. I love waking up in the morning not having aches and pains from laying on rocks or sticks I missed in cleaning up the area before pitching my tent. In short, I love comfort, therefore I love hammocks. Having said that, hammocks have one inherent drawback - they require two shoulder-high anchor points from which to suspend. In many places this is not an option. So what to do then? Do I take a tent along just in case I’m forced to camp in an area devoid of anchor spots? Do I just use the tarp as the shelter and leave the hammock in its bag? Well the ideal solution is a shelter that is BOTH a hammock and a tent, which is what the Lawson purports to be. However, here are my issues with that claim. When set up on the ground, the door is so small and low that you, literally, must get on your belly to crawl into it. At my age, not a very elegant process and absolutely no fun. Once in, what was a spacious interior in hammock mode, has become very cramped and claustrophobic. That sag in the floor when hanging turns out to be critical to the perception of roominess. The wimpy bungees also contribute to the problem because they’re not strong enough to keep the bug screen from sagging down near your face. What was open, airy comfort has suddenly morphed into a straight-jacket nightmare even a contortionist would avoid. This could be remedied by making the bug screen much taller and the aluminum poles more A-shaped than half hoops. This might not look as pleasing to the eye as the Conestoga wagon shape, but give me function over form any day. Anyway, as the title says ‘Great hammock, crappy tent’. ... show more
