Best Camping Hammocks for a Restful Sleep

Hennessy Hammock company was founded by Tom Hennessy and his first product entered the market in 1999. Since then, the company has been famous for its innovative models such as a bottom entry hammock or an asymmetrical hammock. In this review, we’re going to tell you about the asymmetrical model. 

The Expedition Asym Zip has an unusual rectangular shape, meaning it has as many as four sides. The hammock comes with a mosquito net which really works. In addition to total bug protection, you will be shielded from the elements thanks to the rainfly over the hammock. The model also features a large mesh pocket with two compartments for different things. However, the main advantage of this asymmetric hammock is that you can lay not only lengthwise and “cocoon” yourself but also slightly turn your body and lay almost completely flat to find the most comfortable position.

At the first glance, the Eclypse II hammock looks like classic models for indoor use. The only thing that sets it apart from ordinary hammocks is the detachable mosquito net. It does provide great protection from insects wherever you are. This camping hammock with a bug net also has an attached stuff sack, and when the hammock is folded, you won't even notice it's in your backpack! It is incredibly small, lightweight, and packable. However, once the hammock is unfolded, it's a different story! At 9 'x 4' 5 ", it’s extra comfy and roomy; its sides can even act as a wind guard on a stormy day. Although its max weight limit is 400 lbs, it’s a single nested model.

As for the material it’s made of, the manufacturer has used high-strength 210 ripstop nylon with triple stitching and high-quality pattern. Therefore, the hammock provides good support and reduces pressure points so that you can get a good night’s sleep on a trek. We would like to stress that the material is also waterproof, meaning it's a great option for hiking in any conditions. Along with a hammock, you will find two strong metal carbines, tree straps, and adjustable ropes for a mosquito net. The set is amazing, especially for the price.

The hammock by Winner Outfitters is a doublenest model for camping. It’s produced from strong 210T parachute nylon material which is pretty lightweight, soft, and mildew-resistant. The lounger is also well ventilated, so you won’t experience a sweaty sauna effect like with a tent. The product also boasts high-grade nylon triple interlocked stitching to be ultimately durable and supportive. This 2-person camping hammock can hold up to 500 pounds. It’s also super easy to roll up and to take down. 

Since the model is designed for two, its dimensions make 9 '10 "x 6' 6, thus, you two will feel comfortable while swaying and looking at the stars. The best part is that the hammock is supplied with all required straps and hardware. You will find everything you need for a quick setup right off the bat in the package. The set includes a hammock, two ropes (each 11 '5 " long), two tree straps (each 24” long x 2”wide), and two stainless steel carabiners. Note that the hammock comes without a mosquito net, so if you plan an overnight trip, we recommend you to get it additionally. 

Lawson Hammock is the company that produces the one and only model of a camping hammock. This exclusive model stands out from the others with its unique design. It can be used both as a hammock suspended between trees and as a tent standing on the ground. If hung, the spreader bars and arch pole system (included in a set) can make the bed of the hammock tauter or flatter according to your preferences. So, it doesn't matter how stiff and sore your back is when you're falling asleep, you'll always wake up feeling great.

The hammock tent is made of ripstop nylon and can withstand up to 275 lbs of weight. At 7.5' x 3.5', it will surely suit most camping needs. It comes with a rain fly, no-see-um bug net, shock cord poles, stuff sack, spreader bars, and a heavy gauge rope, but note that there are no tree straps in the set. Once installed, the hanging tent is very wide, roomy and comfy. If you want to use it as a regular hammock for chilling out and sunbathing on the beach, you can set it up without the arch poles. Of course, this model is expensive, but it's excellent! 

The G4Free Portable & Foldable camping hammock has the traditional "cocoon" design. It's made of quick-drying parachute nylon which is highly resistant to mildew and rot, meaning this hammock is ideal for outdoor use. Being 9 '2" long and 4' 2"wide, it's extra roomy for one adult. The hammock is very strong, and you can safely stress it with up to 440 pounds. 

This awesome hammock comes with a mosquito mesh protecting you from even the smallest bugs. The net is supported by two sturdy frames which ensure that the netting won't disturb your restful sleep. Better yet, this versatile hammock can be used without the mosquito net as well. No, the mesh isn't detachable, but you can lay on the reverse side and the mosquito net will be on your belly side down. So, the hammock can be used in different ways - an ordinary lounger (mosquito net at the bottom), a hammock tent with a mesh at the top, and... just a sleeping bag! As a matter of fact, you buy one - get three! 

In the package, you will also find two strong carabiners and high-quality shock cords, therefore you can give it a trial in your back yard right out-of-the-box. It's very easy to set up and take down! It will take you less than a couple of minutes to hang it between trees or nearby objects. Ideal for expeditions, hiking, and camping!
