Bunk House 8

If you’re looking for something similar with good ventilation, you want the Wawona 6. Huge vestibule, tons of mesh and ventilation, etc. I’ve taken it out in the winter though a few times and it works great as well. I believe Nature Hike makes a knockoff for about half the price called The Kota. It looks almost the same but has some other features like a stove jack, etc. However, quality would not be near what the Wawona is (massive DAC MX poles…). You mentioned the Big House tent from Big Agnes but I think you’d actually want the Bunk House. It has a bigger vestibule area. It’s a great tent, but it has a full fly and substantially less ventilation than the Wawona. I’ve only used a Bunk House in the winter and it was great.

I second this. I’ve been camping my whole life and Big Agnes is the best tent I’ve ever had. I’ve camped in thunderstorms in it and stayed dry.

Big Agnes Bunkhouse. I'd say the essential part is putting something down to protect the inside surface of the floor from the dog's claws. I also have a cot to give my bed some height so that my Exped doesn't get damaged.

I’ve spent a few nights in the Bunk House and it’s a solid tent. My experience was during a windy and rainy storm. The tent handled it well. I currently own a couple of Big Agnes tents and I love them all. No experience with the Snow Peak.

That 37in ceiling height on the Nemo is kind of a bummer. This new BA tent is just a roomier tent (and heavier for the area), but it's 40in peak height is also kind of a deal breaker for me to want to bring for long trips. I'm not even all that tall.
