Thank you for taking the time to leave a review!
All of the tarps in our kits have eyelets along the edges that can be used to attach the rope, we also suggest that the rope provided can be cut into short lengths and used as guy ropes. We would love to find out more about which kit you purchased so that we can hopefully offer more guidance. Please feel free to call us on 01694751733 or email us at customerservice@thedenkitco.com.

3rd Purchase...just keep getting better!
This is my 3rd purchase from The Den Kit Co and I love it! The products are great quality, quick delivery and staff that are super helpful. It's so good to have high quality gifts that are not technology based and encourage the kids to spend more time in nature but even better these kits are enjoyable to use as a family. Will definitely be ordering again. Loyal customer made!
