My go to is the Warbonnet Mamajamba. Put together some add on doors or a griz-beak, good to go. Very light also.

.... the Aardvark (earth pig)... a rather unremarkable creature whose sole claim to fame is that it is the first animal listed in the dictionary.

A four season tarp with doors would be a great investment if you have the money for it. They are very versatile in all types of weather.
I started hanging using hex tarps with open ends. However, I have switched to tarps with doors (one could still debate the 3 or 4 season label). I want to point out an often overlooked advantage of tarps with doors. With doors the tarp needs to be only a few inches longer than the hammock ridgeline. An open ended tarp needs at least a foot or so on each end to protect the hammock. So, the doors allow you to hang between trees that are closely spaced.

I'd say whoever is telling you what to do or that you need a 4 season tarp should take a step back.
