Well made, high quality, easy to erect, spacious with lots of storage pockets.
We purchased this after camping with friends who had one. It's not difficult to erect by two people within about 10 to 15 mins. The living area is very large with enough space for 10 people; which we had in it at last weeks La Mans weekend. The sleeping pods are attached to the outer tent via loads of toggle straps. The straps keep the inner tents nicely away from the outer tent. There are lots of windows and lots of vents to allow good air circulation. The inner tents are also well vented. The vents remove that damp condensation feel that you very often get when waking up in a morning. All vents are completely rain proof. We had a double height king size airbed in one side of the rear sleeping pod without any problems. This is one of the best tents that I have owned and I’m happy to recommend it to anyone who is looking for good roomy well made tent that will last for years. One of the couples who was camping with us last week, are so impressed with this tent they intend to replace their trailer tent with one.

We are large build people and this tent accommodates my son's height and our width, he can even stand up in the bedrooms. There is plenty of room in the bedroom to walk round the bed if you have fewer than 8 people.It is one of the most waterproof tents you can buy with a 5ooo hydrostatic head. Only one drawback to owning this brilliant tent is that some sites will not accommodate us because the pitches are too small. Check pitch size before you book.

I used to get tent envy when walking around campsites, but not any more. This is our second large tent since we started camping with our two smallish children about 6yrs ago, and I wouldn't swap it for anything else. The first tent taught us the importance of having a large living area to chill in once the kids have gone to bed. The manufacturers' claim of 'spacious family camping' is no exaggeration. It really comes into its own in the rain (Isle of Wight this year) because you can sit around in the dry without feeling at all claustrophobic. The optional front canopy makes a great sunshade if you are lucky enough to get some sun! And the build quality is great.

Its the best tent on the market . Well made and you don't have to take all day to put it up . Emma and me found so easy to put up . We had a really bad storm on night, full works, and kept nice and dry.
Plenty of room as well, we have 3 children. All I have to say is well done Outwell for making a tent with people in mind and making one easy to put up as well

First saw my brother-in-law's last year and fell in love with it. Brought a second hand one recently from a well known auction site in absolutely immaculate condition and used it twice so far this year.Love it love it love it !
The living space is fab for relaxing at night with a glass (or 2) of wine and a pack of cards and also if weather is rubbish, as is the front extension, which I use for cooking and washing-up.
Would recommend it to anyone looking for a big family size tent or even, like us if you just want bit extra space.

We purchased this in 2007 from a friend who'd only used it twice. It's a fabulous tent - very roomy and unbelievably sturdy in high winds.
The bedrooms at the back are spacious yet still leave a huge living area for when the children are in bed and we want to sit up and chill for a while.
The canopy at the front is ideal when it rains as it stops the rain coming in at the front, while letting muddy boots stay outside under cover.
We purchased an Outwell canopy for the side, giving us more shelter.
This is a brilliant tent!

What a superb tent. Bought this out of the uk campsite free ads. We have used it on both short and long breaks. It takes me and the wife about 35-40 mins (depending on how many arguments) to put it up. It has stood up to all the elements the uk weather has thrown at it inc last September when we camped in the peak district when it stood up to one hell of a storm without any leaks or damage.
I cant rate this tent high enough 3 bedrooms, huge living area and built in storage. We have now bought the side porch to add to the front supplied one that we cook under and also an Outwell carpet (Sunvalley 8) to make it more snug for the wife and kids. So if you want a good 2nd hand tent get one of these.

We bought this last year 2nd hand from ebay, what a fab buy, really large tent ( family of 5) huge bedroom at the back of the tent (we have the divider open) and massive amount of space inside the main living area ( our small children run around easily on wet days!) Plenty of room for table/chair combo's and camping chairs, wardrobe and kitchen, even the double buggy as well at times!
The canopy area was great for shade but we have just purchased a front extension as outwell have just launched their fantasy range in blue so now we have something that will match! We bought the imagine front extension as it was roughly the same width and it fit's ok (bit of adapting by my husband but nothing complicated, just adjusting the front guy ropes) now we have an extra room, nearly, loads of shelter from the wind. Now our tent is perfect! I look round at other tents and do not have any tent envy any more! I love my tent!

This is a fabulous tent. Having used it in severe weather over several years it's as good as the day we bought it!
Massive interior which is great for our 4 kids. Just extremely well made, you will not be disappointed.
Optional 2-bed room at the front is a great idea - we sometimes leave it out, sometimes use if for storage and sometimes for sleeping depending on who's with us at the time!

Where do I start, 'This is the best tent I have ever owned'
As a family tent its great, the six berth sleeping area is ideal for the 3 of us with our large raised airbeds, as the side walls only have a slight slope unlike others with a large rake your head rubs on while in bed.
The front bedroom which is easily removable, is ideal for a friend or 2 to stop in if needed.
The overall Outwell quality is excellent, plenty of windows, front door with canopy, and side door with extra poles to prop up the door as another canopy.
Poles are strong & easily fed through the webbing, erection gets easier every time.
The weatherproofness is its main strength, I have had several trips with very wet & windy weather, but it has not let me down.
Yes it is heavy, but for what you get it needs to be.

Manufacturer's Description
The manufacturer has advised that this model has been discontinued.
Manufacturer's product description
Last year, the Outwell Indiana was labelled as the natural successor to the fantastically successful Colorado range. This tunnel tent is designed for spacious but practical family camping and with each tent having the new universal inners, gives a variety of sleeping options. The Indiana range features the Outwell Power Stability steel pole structure and the Outtex 5000 polyester flysheet. Unlike the Montana's, the Indiana range feature fully detachable bathtub groundsheets that act as a barrier to most of what the British weather can throw at them. All tents in the range feature a front and side door with mesh screenhouse doors for hot evenings, large View-Vent panoramic window panels, extensive ventilation 'envelopes' and a zip-off front canopy.
