Highly recommend. Numerous ways to configure the tarp. As stated before in reviews, there needs to be side tie downs or side attachment points.

This is a cool tarp!

11 years ago

I bought two of these tarps - one for my son and one for me. We used them over the Thanksgiving holiday and we both like them much better than our DryFly's. These things offer a lot more coverage, the doors are very cool, as you can close them off and help keep the draft down, they are easy to set up and take down and pack up very well. One of the best things about the HouseFly is for the size it is only weighs 5 oz more than the DryFly. We liked the HouseFly very much and look forward to many years of use.

Keeps your hammock dry, dry, dry!

9 years ago

I bought this ENO HouseFly to cover my hammock while atop the Rim in northern AZ. July brings a lot of rain to the woods and this HouseFly worked perfectly. I had 20-30mph wind gusts with massive downpours and this thing kept me DRY! I practiced setting up in my backyard so when it was time to set up in a hurry, it took me about 7-8 minutes from start to finish. Make sure you purchase your stakes separately because they are not included (I used 8 hedgehog stakes total for the sides and for closing the doors). I would definitely recommend this to all who are looking to compliment your hammocking experience. Of course I had my ENO Doublenest underneath this bad boy with the ENO Blaze underquilt. NOTHING got wet. I know there are others to choose from, but this HouseFly is optimum.

Kept Me Dry and Warm

5 years ago

Took This tarp to Big Sur, CA. It was raining for 3 days and two nights. second night was very windy with pouring rain. I had a cheap Texsport $25 tent I got fron a local Navy surplus store about 8 years ago. Its small with bad ventilation, but it traps heat pretty well. The tent is 4'6" X 7". I pitched the Housefly over the tent to keep the rain off. I used two REI tarp poles (6 ft) to pitch the tent. Poles set to the lowest setting. Staked out the points and it was ready. I should have staked it out first then put up the poles last. I think that would have sped things up. It kept me and my gear dry for the entire trip. Stood up to two windy and raining nights. The seam tape did slightly lift and peeled close to one of the ridgeline ends. The peeling is about a total of3 2 inch sections about an inch apart. The peeling stopped before the stitched seams so I'm sure its still waterproof. No big deal. I can seal it with silicone later. I was very attentive and gentle with all my gear so it was not from misuse. The tarp was put back in a big nylon mesh sack so it wasn't stuffed with any force whatsoever. I didn't inspect the tarp when I first received it, so I was unable to confirm if it was already peeling. The included stakes worked fine in the moist, firm dirt ground of the campsite. The tarp stuffs\rolls back into the included stuff sack just fine. I didn't find myself having to even fight to put it back in the sack. Despite the seam tape issue, I would use this tarp again with confidence. I wouldn't hesitate to buy another one if my current one is lost, damaged, or worn out.

2 hammocks fit under

10 years ago

I love this tarp. My husband and I can sleep side by side or bunk style. If we close it up tight, we can still fit with just not a ton of room. We can also fit both hammocks in the Guardian Bug Net too.. its a little tricky, but it all works out. Open it a little wider and its perfect! (I am 4'11" 100 lbs, he is 5'7" 175lbs- so we aren't the largest of people..) but its really great to have some privacy while hammocking in like car camping areas..

Fantastic.

9 years ago

I had a Pro-fly rain tarp for my hammock system, but I wanted something that could offer me both more protection and more room. I found out about the HouseFly and bought it after a bit of research. I purchased this about 9 months ago and am still happy with the purchase. The fact that it is like an A-frame tent hung between trees helps keep rain from blowing or splashing in the sides, it also means the wind doesn't blow in as bad and chill you when you're trying to sleep. My favorite thing about the HouseFly is the fact that there's just more room. When our day hike was cut short by a multi-hour downpour, we raised up one side of the fly and sat under it like a lean-to style shelter while we cooked our dinner and stayed dry! There are many uses for this thing, including the fact that you could feasibly set it up as a tent on the ground using your hiking poles if you couldn't find any trees for some reason.

Won’t Hammock without it!

5 years ago

The first thunderstorm I went through with this was as an impromptu shelter by itself. I set it up within minutes on the trail to protect 3 people. The next thunderstorm was around midnight and I am so glad that it is built very sturdy. The door flaps made all the difference when the wind shifted and without them me and my gear would have been soaked. I see all the ultralight cool looking tarps without this 360 degree protection and literally cring.

Eno house fly forever. Great as ground tent too

8 years ago

Ok I've had this for a year now and I have to say it has done very well. It's survived many storms heat me very dry every single time. Even the night my hammock broke I was safe and dry in a winter storm. I now use it as a ground tent with 2 tracking poles. I do suggest longer steaks but you'll always be safe and dry.
