Eureka! Copper Canyon 1312 Eight-Person 13-Foot by 12-Foot Family Tent

Sleep 8 people comfortably in this 156 sq. ft. tent. This cabin style tent offers much more usable space than typical dome tent designs. Straight walls offer more head room and allow campers to push cots and gear closer to the walls and out of the way. 75D StormShield polyester fly features clear panel skylights for stargazing and pockets for storing storm guyouts when not in use.

Corner zips on the fly allow for easy attachment of the included awning system. 6 large zippered windows open for excellent visibility and airflow and close for privacy. Easy to use toggles keep window flaps off the floor and out of the way! Additional features include steel and fiberglass poles for durability and pole sleeves, frame clips and ring and pin assemblies make set up a snap. Nickel sliders and self-healing zippers will provide years of trouble-free use and factory-taped major seams help to seal out the weather. Special touches like the E! Power Port for an extension cord (not included) and a handy sweep-out point make this tent extra friendly for those campers who want some of the conveniences of home.

Featuring vertical walls for maximal internal space, this 13-foot x 12-foot (156 square feet) freestanding cabin-style tent accommodates up to eight campers on cots. The tent includes a removable curtain so it can be divided into two rooms as well as being configured as a single room. Two D-shaped doors with side flaps permit private entry into each room and have large #8 zippers with covers for durability and rain protection. Six large zippered mesh windows open for visibility and airflow and close for privacy. Toggles keep window flaps off the floor and out of the way. A detachable awning shades the front. A fly with clear-panel skylights permits stargazing and includes pockets for storing storm guyouts when not in use. A port allows an extension cord (not included) to be run into the tent. A sweep-out point facilitates housekeeping. A hanging gear-loft supplies convenient storage.

Made of 1200mm, 75D polyester, the tent has nine steel and fiberglass poles that slip into sleeves during setup. Frame clips and ring-and-pin assemblies also facilitate setup. Mesh screens out insects as small as no-see-ums. The tent weighs 37 pounds and has a center height of 7-foot-3.

Eureka! tents’ standard design features include bathtub-style floors that wrap up the sides to keep water out; nickel sliders and self-healing zippers; and factory-taped major seams to seal out weather.

Eureka! Copper Canyon 1312 Family Tent Review

I purchased this tent as a replacement for my old 16×9 tent.Being a camper for over 40 years,I wanted time proven design, along with functionality and newer lightweight materials. I had the same issues as everyone else finding a review for this tent as none were available at the time of my purchase. After many hours,I decided on the Copper Canyon because of the weight, seperate doors for each room, and the footprint was a little more managable than the Columbia everyone likes. Also Eurika has a good reputation for quality and design.
The craftmanship and materials are top notch.All seams are double stitched and many are taped.
Setup was a breeze with my 11 year old daughter(about 20 mins first time)Takes about 15 mins myself now.
I was very pleased with the vertical walls. Being 6’5″ it was great being able to walk corner to corner without having to duck!
I almost could’nt beleive how high the tub floor seams were above the ground.
I love the sweep out feature at the doors,this makes clean out easy because you dont have to broom out over a seam!
The rain fly protects well without obstructing window view and at 150 square feet this is very roomy for me and my three daughters.
It goes back in the bag easily and is easy to carry.

Now the meat.

This tent was field tested in the back yard.I set it up and let it up for 4 days for seam sealing. The first day a violent thunderstorm rolled through(40mph winds and walls of rain).This was before I had applied seam seal.I was totaly surprised this tent held its own. The walls stayed rigid and kept there form. After several hours of pounding rain I was quite relieved to see only a small wet spot(about 3″) where the drivin rain was forced up under the fly(my fault I left the fly unattached to the center post). All the door and window seams were dry.
The self healing zippers are good with reinforced fabric seams.As with all tent and sleeping bag zippers,they should still be handled with care.
I was very pleased with the “no see-um” mesh in the windows and doors. After 3 days not a single bug got in untill I left the door open on day 4. The awning works well for sun and rain.
All this said I am very pleased with this tent.It is a great buy, with great features and I can and will recommend it to all.I gave this tent a 5 because the craftmanship and materials are very good with no defects anywhere,it survived that wicked storm unscaved, and it sets up and down easily.It has a great size to weight ratio and I had no trouble getting it back in the bag. Its also easy on the eyes and looks great in the woods(No red!).I hope this helps and I wish you all the best on your next camping trip….Enjoy it out there folks!!
