A portable hammock support includes a first pair of ground engaging members pivotally connected to each other and aligned with each other and a second pair of ground engaging members pivotally connected to each other and aligned with each other. The first and second pairs of ground engaging members are disposed substantially parallel to each other. A first U-shaped element has one leg pivotally connected to one of the first pair of ground engaging members and a second leg pivotally connected to one of the second pair of ground engaging members. A second U-shaped element has one leg pivotally connected to the other of the first pair of ground engaging members and its other leg pivotally connected to the other of the second pair of ground engaging members. A hammock has one end fixed to a base of the first U-shaped element and its other end releasably connected to a base of the second U-shaped element. Each of the first and second U-shaped elements is limited to the amount of pivoting when it is moved to its raised operative position. In the collapsed or folded position of the support, the hammock is disconnected from the base of the second U-shaped element and each of the U-shaped elements is pivoted into the same plane as the two pairs of ground engaging members. The two pairs of ground engaging members also are pivoted into the same plane in the collapsed position of the support.
