I've looked at this bag, which might fill the bill as a summer weight bag. http://www.northernmountain.com/pgi-ProductSpec?524033 Among it's features are a "pocket" in the bottom of the bag which holds a thermarest pad or air mattress. If you're one of those toss and turn sleepers, like me, you find yourself constantly trying to stay on your pad when you turn over. There is also a "pocket" which holds a camp pillow in place, if you are one who is always losing track of your headrest. I now use a pretty heavyweight down bag which has performed well ( never been unfortunate enough to get it wet - the advice about a compression dry bag is good advice). I sometimes find the down bag to be overkill on summer nights, which is why I'm considering a summer weight bag - I like the idea that it can also be used as an over bag to add warmth to a 3 season bag. Good luck.
