Used coleman for car camping & a spray bottle of 303 Marine Fabric Guard to spruce up the waterproofing. Cheap & easy peasy. Go ahead & get a 4 person for car camping. If it rains you,ll have somewhere to hang out. Save the 2p for backpacking. Here's a 4p coleman Evanston w a porch, $130 incl shipping... on ebay

The Coleman cabin camping tent with screen porch works well for me. I love that it has the screen porch for those rainy days, and it also keeps the bugs out since I can create an airlock lol. I've camped in this for a few summers and it's kept me nice and dry (which is amazing because summer 2023 we had almost 3 straight months of rain here). https://a.co/d/bUMx8hA

Coleman 6-Person Dome Tent with... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B004E4AW1K?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share Plenty big, and has an excellent rain fly for when it rains. Most rain flys on tents like this go down just a little bit over the side of the tent.

I also refuse to let bugs into the tent if possible and I had a [6 person Coleman](https://www.coleman.com/tents-canopies/tents-by-size/evanston-screened-6-person-tent/SAP_2206933.html?utm_source=google&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=Coleman_Outdoor_US_2024_DTC_NB_DSA_1861426&utm_term=&utm_content=Tents&gad_source=1&gbraid=0AAAAAD0GYNpRAxJFLO41csGaoL_J0xMZy&gclid=Cj0KCQjwy46_BhDOARIsAIvmcwNAZQCYgTIW9YOJ5yGtIlhVWP7ae8S5opVIK92495MPci-nO6Eeu20aAsAGEALw_wcB&actionPoint=Show) tent that had a “screened porch” feature, which I believe you can get with other tent brands too. There were two separate zipper doors, so we made sure one door was always closed (I.e. if you want to go into the main tent area, close the outer one). I got mine on sale for $60 and it lasted me two years before I let it get too gross from all the rain/mud 😬

OP- have you used this tent yet? We are looking at it for our family of 4 (we usually use a 6-person, just for the space), but are replacing our Coleman Evanston 6, because my wife is tired of using a tent she can't stand up in. Not sure if that's a possibility in the Sequoia, but the name does imply some height (we're not tall people, 5'6" , but the Evanston has us crouching everywhere but dead center).

Several Coleman tents, an old 4 person dome, a 6 person Evanston, and a 10 person Weather Master for car camping and Big Agnes 3 person Copper Spur. All have been great tents.

Family of 3 and we won tickets to the Kerrville Folkmusic Festival. We had a Big Agnes Copper Spur and a Coleman 4 person dome, but we wanted to be able to stand and get dressed, as well as have room for an air mattress and a cot, though we ditched the air mattress for 2 more cots, so we got a Coleman Evanston 6. Since then we bought a Coleman Weathermaster 8 as it has two rooms, but honestly it’s just about the perfect size to have plenty of room to even bring in the folding chairs if we need, which then makes it a little crowded. For the two of you I’d think a 6 person should be just enough to stand as long as nobody’s over maybe 6’ or so. If it’s raining or too windy and cold you should be able to squeeze in a couple of chairs and be happier. The Evanston has a screened porch which has been handy a few times.

Sorry, it’s $379. Scroll until you see the one with the screen porch on one end. The one I sent you before this did not have the screen look closely at the pictures. It shows 379 for the one with the screen on Amazon.

I have a few backpacking tents, but my son saw all the huge tents at the campground and really wanted one.  I got one on sale at Amazon from Coleman.  It’s a 6 person with a screened in porch.  The space inside is nice, the screened in porch is great for shoes and things like that.  It’s bulky and heavy.  It’s a bit more work to put up and take down.  It makes my kid happy and I secretly like it too :)

My wife and I have 2 tents. A giant Coleman 6 person tent with an attached screened in porch and another tent pretty much the same as your Rei half dome, but it's a 3 person. Depending on the trip we chose the tent. If we're going car camping with friend for a weekend or if we're bringing the dogs, and it's car camping, we bring the bigger tent. If we're exploring somewhere with just me and her then we bring the smaller tent. Either way we usually base it on the trip, amount of people, how far from the car, and if we are bringing dogs. It's usually just us using the tent. This system has worked well with us for 10 years.
