We use a 10'x10' heavy duty easy up to place over The Schnoodle Shack. That gives us 2.5' on each side to get out of the rain while getting in/out, and removing wet jackets etc before climbing in. It also provides protection over the galley during the rain. We also have an LLBean screen house that we set up nearby. The screen house is 10'x10' (Woodlands model) and we have the optional rain fly/floor kit. We have survived near hurricane rain/winds in this thing, and not a single drop of water has gotten inside. You can have all 4 sides down, 3, 2, or no sides down with the rainfly, for rain protection or for privacy. We always have people admire it after he go through heavy storms, and they ask where they can get one. It is pricy though, at $259 for the screen house and $139 for the rain fly/floor kit. When we bought them about 5 years ago they were $200 & $100. Being LLBean they are guaranteed for life! Anything ever goes wrong, even after 50 years, and they will give you your money back...no questions asked. I know I sound like an LLBean commercial, but over the years I have used their no questions asked return policy many times, where as other company products I have just thrown them away and bought new ones...usually replaced with LLBean products when ever possible!
