The joy’s of a Screen House

Everyone knows a screen house can be used for many things. A day at the park, day camping at the lake, the outdoor party or bar-b-que at your home. Screen tents are available in many different styles and configurations. Basically, a portable tent that is screened on all sides with a solid roof. Some models are available with roll up walls to provide extra wind and rain protection and awnings for shade. Most are light weight, easy to assemble and offer protection from those pesky biting bugs. For me, there is no better weekend getaway then packing up the family, our screen house and heading out to the lake to enjoy nature and friends. Whether going on your first trip to the lake or your 50th party at home, a screen tent will make a good addition.

Their are two basic materials used in the manufacture of a screen house. Rip Stop Nylon is the most popular, but some are also available in highly durable Cotton Canvas. Most offer no-see-um mesh screen which helps prevents all type of bugs from getting inside.

A screen house can make a great alterative or addition to your camping trip. Ever needed a little extra room while camping? These are great for storing extra equipment like coolers, picnic tables and lawn chairs. Even some camping tents feature a screen room for added comfort.

So, the next time you are planning a outdoor trip or party, consider a screen house. It maybe the one thing that makes your outing a success.

The many uses of a screen house. Parties, bar-b-que’s, camping, at the beach, a day at the lake, weddings, garage sales, flea markets, play area for kids and many more.
