Gear Gear Help

Very new to this hammock thing. Need the ultimate hammock setup for camping on a Michigan lake cove in July. No mosquitos allowed and need to be covered in case of rain. Not sure if there will be trees. Also a side sleeper if it helps. Main thing is I just want to be comfortable sleep at night and be able to transition into lazy during the day.

Any help would be much appreciated. Even Ai is all over the place. Some recommend a warbonnet and another suggested a haven?

Dutchware, Superior gear, Dream Hammock, Simply Light, Majestic, Hammock Gear, Trailheadz, so many and they are all great for different reasons.

I side sleep fine in both my Dream Hammock Sparrow and my Dutchware Chameleon. Camping hammocks will have bug nets for mosquitos and you get a tarp for rain.

Thank you. I will check those out now. Part of it is I know absolutely nothing about them. Will they all have bug nets? Starting to learn quick though, but there are so many choices it’s making my head spin. If there are any e-commerce people out here…there is a golden opportunity.

They all have options with and without big nets. But most hammocks without bug nets are more for lounging than camping.
