Prairie Trail Cabin Tent, 8-Person

We just used one of these guys: https://www.canadiantire.ca/en/pdp/coleman-prairie-trail-cabin-tent-8-person-0762922p.html (It worked, although I probably would have chosen something different, I got this one free from my MIL)

I have a Coleman cabin fast pitch tent. They are awesome but very heavy and bulky. I like the cabin tents because you can actually stand in them.

When I got a new knee, after surgery, and we had a small tent, my bf got us a McMansion tent..for like 8 ppl! I could stand up in it and we could use an air mattress for ease of getting up/laying down. No one said a word, but it was sort of laughable, but I didn't care! It also had space for more stuff in the tent! What's "normal" anyway? Just have a great time camping!!

A2 hinged D door is a game changer with little kids. We never zipped it during the day and it would close automatically. I’m sure some bugs got in, but nothing like a zipper door that the kids just leave hanging open. Also, the floor of those weathertech’s are amazing.

The Sundome or Cabin series are car camping staples. Great value, easy setup, perfectly adequate for 40-75°F. The ventilation is decent and they're bomber in light rain. Downsides: heavier materials, can get condensation if you seal it up too much. Honestly for your use case, Coleman is probably the practical choice. The price difference could go toward a better sleeping pad or quilt which makes way more difference for comfort.

We have had the coleman cabin tent for ~5 years or so. It is reliable and comfortable, we have slept in it in torrential rain, high heat, ~34 degree nights with frost developing on it; all of that has left it with no damage and solid water repelling still after all of that happening on multiple trips. The front porch feature with the rain fly overhang has been rly cool when we wanna avoid rain/bugs but still wanna chill at the campsite. I will say that it goes on sale sometimes and I think Dunham’s has it for a bit cheaper sometimes. But it is honestly one of the best tents I’ve ever used. We let friends use it in trips now because we got a gazelle pop up tent after going camping consistently for a few years. But we still love that Coleman, you can’t miss with it really.

I have the Coleman cabin tent, we’ve had it for at least 5 years now. We camp a lot, and bought rec land where we left the tent up all summer. It’s still in fantastic condition! I don’t think I’ll ever need to get another tent.

We camp a lot and I still get a Coleman or similar. For car camping. My kid or dogs ends up doing something stupid so I don’t want an expensive one. A $100 tent lasts us years. I suggest a cabin style tho.

Had the Coleman Cabin tent for about 5 years and was solid. What finally did it in were 70mph gusts at Joshua Tree (still have wind PTSD from that lol). And the CORE tents from Costco are legit too.

The Coleman cabin is my go to for car camping. I've got over 100 days on mine.
