Gear Talk: Dog Palace - Cave Creek Hammocks (VIDEO REVIEW)

**OlTrailDog** · 10-14-2017, 21:01

Randerson, since you are following this thread, I would order one in a heartbeat if you can conjure one up to fit the hammocktent gamma UL:

The ridge line is 9ft., the length is about 7ft., and the door would need to be in the end.

Thanks for the link OlTrailDog,
I will check it out. Couple orders in the works that will be shipping this week. Then I can experiment with longer bathtub floor, bridge hammock setup and check out how to do a 90 degree setup!

I have one on order. Hope to be able to get a night or two in it with my lab before the snow flies.

Yours is on the table ADKGuy. Coming your way soon!

I’d also be interested in having a little more floor space for my dog (plus me, if I need to go to ground with her). I’m also wondering if there’s a way to add either clip on “side cover” walls (similar to top covers on hammocks) to protect my dog a little more—she has no fat or fur to keep her warm. Even better, I’d love if some little insulated shelter could be added to a corner when needed that she could curl up in—I’ve seen people make mesh and tyvek little tents for their dogs that are suspended from the tarp...something like that, but insulated to keep her warm, and it can still be compressed and fit in my pack...or left at home in warm weather. That would be perfect.

Thanks again. Your pup is adorable.

Thanks glad you found the review useful.

The BEST investment I have made....PERIOD. Thank you Rick @ Cave Creek.

I forgot to give some important info....tub is the 84" option (you see both 75lb. Flat Coat Retrievers have plenty of room) and my pack which is 35lbs. Rick made me a higher tub.....I think we did eleven inches... this gave me a little more head room when I stood up. The quality is second to none. Second year with the Pet Palace and it's as good as new. Excited to get the 4 legged kids out this year.

I concur....just can't say enough. Here's mine in porch mode pitched low on the windward side and a set of Dutch tarp pole mods across the top. IMG_0242.jpg
