A custom dual-slider zipper configuration allows separate vestibules over each door, making the Antares comfortable and livable for three people.

"I bought the Antares last year on sale and did not have a chance to use it until this season. I took it on a 4 night backpack into the Lost Coast of Humbolt County, CA. The tent, like most Sierra Design tents was a snap to set up. It was roomy and I liked the layout."

"I'm a light three-season camper that appreciates good design and product quality. Overall, I like Sierra Designs tents - good quality, great utility. The Antares looked like a great tent online (gearx was selling floor models at a great price) and set up in my living room - I was happy with the quality of the material and workmanship, the two large doors and vestibules (no more climbing over my sleeping boyfriend in the middle of the night) and the large mesh area."
