Interior ideas for 6 1/2 x 12 "V" front ice house

Me and my dad are working on it now and have the walls built and the windows in. I was thinking put two benches with a table on the back wall and then have a bunk above each bench, and have the table and benches fold down into a bed, all in all we want it to sleep 4 guys, any ideas would be great, pictures are even better

Sounds like the guys in the bunks will be stepping on the guy's on the bench getting in and out of the bunks I also have a 6.5x12 and find two to be comfortable and three tight never fished with four in there but got to believe it would be tough

how do you have yours set up for 3 guys to sleep? we could get buy with 3

To tell you the truth I eliminated the third bunk altogether and now the house sleeps just two. When the bunk was in there it was located above the bed at the rear of the house

I've got a regular 6.5 and 12 and it sleeps 2 perfectly. I've had a third guy on the floor on an army cot before but then it's tough to move around tending holes. Setting up to sleep four will really cut down on it's comfort level. If you built it to sleep just two you and a buddy will like it best!!! Next week I'm building a 10.5x16 foot sleeper for LOW and with it's 40inch kitchenette folded down it will sleep 6 with two on the kitchenette, the other four guys will be on two bunks on each end of the shanty. It was streached 6 inches to get the door and the kitchenette on the same wall.

Here are pictures if interested of the smaller fish house. http://www.omnious.org/icehouse/

looks good, i'd like it to sleep 3 for sure. i was maybe thinking putting just bunks in the back and the bottom one can sleep 2 and the top can sleep 1

my buddy is hooking us up with a full size van bench seat the folds down into a bed for free, brand new. so that will be cool.

Well I think we got it figured out, we got a full size van back seat that folds into a bed, that will go underneith the top bunk in the back facing the front, and then on the side opposite to the door there will be one or two bunks, or just a bench wide enough to sleep on. does this sound like a little better Idea
