Whether you're at the beach, on the trail, traveling or at home, Basecamp is the ultimate safe, shady and insect-free pop-up playard for little ones. Its durable yet fine mesh construction is prevents insects from visiting interior space while allowing for ample, open airflow to keep kids cool. 

Basecamp instantly pops open in one motion with one hand. When it's time to head back, simply squeeze the top yellow bars with both hands and collapse Basecamp back into a folded position instantly.

It's so easy to take along. Carry in its bag or attach it to the side of any Cruiser.

    Great

    Love it! Bag is a bit tight to put back in. The cover is a struggle too but everything else is great.

    Perfect for backyards and parks

    This is a perfect size for my two boys to hang out in the backyard or the park when there is no shade. Easy to set up and pack away as well. Would recommend as a gift for an outdoorsy family.

    Easy set up

    Easy to set up and take down. Did take a little effort to shove back in the bag, but I love that it has hooks to hang off our cruiser wagon

    Still new to us

    This has been ideal for outdoor activities with my preschooler and toddler. My toddler isn’t interested to join us in our gardening most days so this was just what I needed. Easy pop and set up, toss water bottle and toys in, and she was happy to hang out while we worked in the garden. Then take down was really fast and easy(once you figure out where to grab to grip). Storage is fabulous and compact, and attachment to our veer wagon makes for easy transportation.

    Best item I’ve ever bought on Amazon!

    Can’t speak highly enough about this time. Also bought the mattress pad to go with it. Pop it up in literally two seconds and take it down and bag it up in under 30 seconds. Do not hesitate to make this purchase. You won’t regret it!
