Collection: Screened Shelters

Camp Without Compromise

Camping is all about immersing yourself in nature, but that doesn’t mean you have to like bugs in your snack bowl or rain crashing your card game! A screen tent for camping provides the perfect balance between enjoying the outdoors and staying protected from the elements and insects. Whether you’re kicking back at the campsite, setting up a chill zone for meals, or just needing a dry spot to hang when the weather turns, a screen tent keeps the good vibes going: no fly swatters required.

Unlike classic camping tents, screen tents are designed for open-air lounging while offering coverage from harsh sun, light rain, and biting bugs. They make the outdoors more comfortable and accessible, especially during buggy summer evenings or unpredictable weather.

The Campground MVP

A screen tent for camping can completely transform your outdoor fun. It creates a dedicated space for dining, relaxing, or escaping the sun, without needing to retreat to your main tent or vehicle. Families with young children especially benefit from the added structure, which provides a safe space for play and rest.

At outdoor campgrounds, screen tents have become beloved campsite essentials. They not only offer practical benefits but also contribute to a more enjoyable and social camping experience. You'll spend more time outside and less time swatting bugs or seeking shade.

Built for Your Campsite

No two outdoor hangout spots are the same. Sometimes, you’re hanging out in a cozy patch of grass tucked under the trees. At other times, you may be camping in a wide-open site with plenty of space to sprawl out. That’s why CORE offers a range of screen tents for camping designed to fit how you camp. No matter what occasion brings you and your crew outside, we’ve got a screen house that’ll fit right into your setup.

Some campers need just enough room to throw up a table and keep the bugs at bay. Others want a central hangout spot where meals happen, games get played, and people crash on camp chairs late into the night. No matter your style, you can create a comfortable, breathable space in a CORE screen tent for camping more comfortably, whether the sun’s beating down or the bugs are biting.

We’ve even got models with built-in lighting and weather protection, so you can keep things going long after sunset or stay dry when the skies surprise you. And with different sizes and shapes to choose from, CORE’s got a screen tent that’ll feel like it was made for your campsite, because it was.

Wherever your next trip takes you, your screen room should work as hard as the rest of your gear. With CORE, it will.

Shelters Ready When You Are

Setting up any shelter can be a pain, especially when you’re ready to get outside with your crew. At CORE, we believe your gear should work with you, not slow you down. That’s why every CORE screen house is built with our instant setup technology, so you can go from packed to pitched in 2 minutes or less. No complicated instructions, no tangled poles, just shade, shelter, and bug protection, ready when you are.

Our shelters are made to handle the outdoors with tough mesh, 150D polyester, and weather-ready features that stand up to sun, wind, and unexpected rain. They’re lightweight enough to move around camp, but rugged enough to hold up season after season.

Taking care of your screen shelter is easy. Just shake off the dust, let it dry before storing, and do a quick once-over for any wear and tear. If you use your screen house with a rainfly often, you can clean it and re-up your weather resistance using NikWax products. With just a little upkeep, your CORE shelter will be ready to roll for every trip, every time.

A Smart Addition to Your Campsite

Compared to permanent structures or RV add-ons, a screen tent for camping is a highly affordable way to expand your livable space outdoors. While prices vary depending on size, brand, and features, most quality screen tents are available at a reasonable cost and can last for years with proper care.

Think of it as an investment in comfort and convenience. Instead of cutting your evenings short because of bugs or bad weather, a screen tent allows you to make the most of your trip, from morning coffee to late-night stargazing. Plus, they’re portable, packable, and easy to store between adventures.

If you’re planning your next trip, consider adding a screen tent for camping to your gear list. It’s a simple addition that delivers major comfort, helping you enjoy every moment outside: rain or shine, day or night.
