Fast Pitch Dark Room Tent

I have the Coleman 6-person Fast Pitch Dome that I love for summer/fall camping. I can put it up by myself in 6-8 minutes and it has worked well for me even on some cold and rainy evenings. Makes solo car camping quick and easy but still big enough for friends to join.

Mine from like 2015 has drainage. It’s an early version of their blackout tents and I love it

I'm thinking they backed the trailered boat over the tent because, well... our eyesight just becomes worse and worse the older we get. I'd go with a Coleman 6p 10'×10' pop-up. Coleman tents offer good protection at a great price.

I bought a Coleman 6p fast frame dark tent, it's a great tent easy to set up but I kinda regret getting the dark tent. It's darker in the tent than my bedroom at home so I don't wake up at all in it. I believe the dark tents are also heavier than an equivalent sized normal tent. I like the sun walking me up early when I'm camping. Plenty of room for me and my wife and my 2 toddlers. I am interested in the air tents too, that might be my next upgrade.

The material does feel a lot thicker which I guess would also help with durability as well as the waterproofness and light blocking.

coleman 6 person (10x10') that is 6' tall. unless you are over 6' it is good to have extra room for gear and tall enough for standing (esp when getting dressed). I used an 8 person for me and my dog (with a big crate)... I liked enough room to bring a small table and chair in when it rained... https://preview.redd.it/jsndo9u0yfnf1.jpeg?width=1320&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=93e3bed7e1f5516fccbf75461b281493ff1f93a8

personally i would buy 2 10x10 coleman dome tents.

That tent is a coleman montana 8 person. I have had 2 of them,.they are very sturdy when all the guy lines are used. It does well in the rain... the fly covers the 2 side windows very well. my only complaint would be the windows are high so there is not much air flow low down. I always bring a small fan so not an issue. The coleman 6 person is what I used last. It was fine after I my dog passed and it was just me. I like to have enough room to stand, and bring a chair and small table inside incase it rains. This one is 10x10' and 6' tall. https://preview.redd.it/vna1vl7a5krf1.jpeg?width=2048&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=0c7cb984cda2696f6a6e11b307ce64be9bd89425

I have a fast frame dark Coleman for the family, and I also have a Denali Kakadu 2p tent ($100) for windy weather. But if you attach all the lines to pegs on the fast frame it's probably gonna be ok

I reckon get a 6 person tent, those ones you mentioned are too big. We also have a 3yo, and we got a 6 person Coleman darkroom. It means jr can sleep in summer when the sun is still out

The Coleman darkroom is the best tent I've ever owned, my toddler can nap in it during the day in summer. Slightly more work than a Coleman dome, but I put a camping fan on in it and wake up at 7:30-8 in the morning

I got the 6 person too, it's so nice

Coleman dark room tent is great with kids, if you put a camping fan in there for some background noise they'll be napping in no time. I don't take kids camping in bad weather, but the Coleman is sturdy enough if you peg all the ropes in that there won't be a problem

I’ll add this, we used a 10x10 Coleman for years while car camping with two kids and felt it was plenty roomy. The same size Springbar feels much larger in comparison due to the straighter walls & high ceiling. You mention Burning Man and wind being a concern. I set this tent up in the yard for ten days to season. Completely dry through two rain storms, including one with 50mph gusts. I’m starting to believe the hype surrounding these tents.
