Home Uses for Your Portable Camping Gazebo

A portable camping gazebo is one of the most useful bits of camping gear you’ll ever buy! And not just for camping either – even though they are amazing portable shelter at all sorts of campsites. But when you find uses for your 3x3m gazebo or your 6x3m Kings Gazebo in between camping trips, you’ll see how they become even better value than ever before – because you’ll be getting so much use out of it! So don’t put your gazebo away when you get home from your camping trip and then forget about it until next time – here are 6 ways that you can use your portable gazebo in between camping trips and get even more use out of it!

1. SHELTER WHEN THE KIDS ARE PLAYING IN THE BACKYARD

If your kids have their mates coming over for a play date and the weather isn’t looking great, don’t cancel – set up your portable camping gazebo in the backyard! They’re so easy to setup that one person can do it in a matter of minutes, and once it’s setup you’ll have heaps of undercover shelter for the kids to play to their hearts’ content. Whether you’ve got a 3x3m gazebo or even a huge 6x3m gazebo, it’s fantastic protection for the kids in the sun, the wind or the rain – and when you add a camping mesh floor underneath, they’ll even stay up out of the dirt and stay clean too! Remember to peg your camping gazebo down whenever you set it up, even if it’s in the backyard for a short time – this guards against gusts of wind.

1. AS PORTABLE SHELTER ON THE JOBSITE

Got an urgent job on that you can’t postpone just because it’s raining? If you’ve got your portable gazebo in your work truck then you can keep working even as others quit. It’s the perfect solution when it’s bucketing down rain and you’ve GOT to get that job wired up, or just as somewhere to keep the drizzle off your drop saw. And even when it’s sunny, you’ll love the fact that you can use your portable gazebo as shade shelter – spot on for smoko out of the sun when it’s hot! Just make sure the apprentice doesn’t pinch the best spot, but if you’ve got your camp chair in the back of the ute too then you’ll never need to hunt around for a milk crate either. Now that’s what we call having smoko in style!

1. AS SHELTER FOR YOUR CAR, BOAT OR CAMPER TRAILER IN THE BACKYARD

Not all of us are lucky enough to have a garage to store our car, boat or camper trailer. And even if we do – it’s usually the family car that takes priority, leaving our pride and joy out in the elements. That’s the surest way to speed up how weathered your boat, camper trailer or 4WD will look – but if you’ve got a portable camping gazebo then you can use it as temporary shelter! The Adventure Kings 6x3m Gazebo is the same size as a typical single car garage, and with a maximum 2.3 metres of clearance on its highest height setting, it makes the perfect spot to park your trailer or you 4WD under. That keeps the leaves, the rain and the sun off your pride and joy, and keeps it looking better for longer – that’s a win in our books!

1. FOR WATCHING THE KIDS SPORTS ON WEEKENDS WHEN THE WEATHER IS IFFY

How many times have you got to your kids sports on the weekends only for the weather to close in? If you can park next to the field or the court then you could set up your 4WD side awning, but often you can’t park anywhere near close enough. That’s when your portable camping gazebo comes into its own, and if you’ve got a wheeled gazebo bag then it’s easier than ever to transport your gazebo from your car across the carpark to the best vantage point. And because your camping gazebo is so easy to setup and pack away, even if you’ve got to change fields or courts in between games then it’s never a hassle to do so. Just be prepared to become best mates with all the other families who are guaranteed to want a bit of that shelter too!

1. THE PERFECT BACKYARD BBQ SHELTER ON THE WEEKEND

Set your Kings Portable Gazebo up in the backyard on the weekend and you’ve got excellent protection from the elements for a backyard BBQ with your mates! It’s hard organising free time when everyone is available, so the last thing you want is to finally line up a day where everyone is free, only to have to cancel because it’s raining. Instead, set up your camping gazebo over the top of your Voyager Portable BBQ and then set up your camp chairs and camping table underneath your gazebo, and you’re all set for a beaut BBQ afternoon with your mates. And remember if the rain starts to come in from the side then you can always add a couple of gazebo side walls for even more protection from the elements.

1. FANTASTIC TEMPORARY BACK DECK SHELTER

If you’ve got a back deck but you don’t have a veranda or roof over the top of it, you’ll know how limiting it can be! As soon as it starts to rain you’ve got no choice but to head back inside, but if you set up your Kings 3x3m gazebo on your back deck then you’ll be able to sit outside with a cuppa and enjoy the rain, without getting wet! It’s another perfect example of just how useful your gazebo is, even when you aren’t camping!
