Abstract
A versatile and portable tent with bed having an inner tent, a framework for supporting the inner tent, a base for supporting the framework; and cushions positioned inside the base with the inner tent fastened to the base and the framework positioned inside sleeves of the inner tent. The base has two shells that can move between an open configuration and a closed configuration in which the inner tent, framework, and cushions, and any other tent component is completely housed inside the waterproof base cover. The tent is sufficiently lightweight that a single user can place the tent on the roof rack of a vehicle, in the bed of a truck, or on the ground. The tent can also be mounted on a platform to increase the versatility of the positioning or placement of the tent.
