Steel Creek™ Fast Pitch™ Dome Camping Tent with Screen Room

Honestly I would say to just look at a 6p Coleman tent. I would not go too expensive for a starter tent. Personally I like tents that have a rainfly that goes almost to the ground. And a vestibule is always nice too. This is the style I am talking about.

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.

I actually have the 6 person with a patio. We camped in the poconos last August in like a hurricane and everyone else was screwed and we just sat there like well… glad this works lol

I just went camping with this Coleman tent: https://imgur.com/a/7DFGpIy “ Coleman Weatherproof 4-Person Cabin Tent with Screened Porch” I loved it. Wasn’t too difficult to setup alone. Lots of space inside for a 4 man tent. Big windows but able to be zipped up.  Windows allow airflow even with rain fly on it.  It was an upgrade from a Coleman sun dome.  I also have a 6 man Coleman with porch as well for when I take the kids with me and it was easier and lighter than that one. That 6 man one also allows no airflow with the rain fly on. This 4 man Coleman one is the best of both worlds.  Prices on this one are wild. Anywhere from $119-$200 depending on who’s selling it. I got it for $150 shipped. 

I'll let others give alternatives, but my main advice is: Always get bigger than advertised. Do not get a 4-person tent. Get a big one. Or two tents? I'm one person and happy with my six-person EZ Coleman (seriously).

I like the Coleman 6 man dome tents. I use them for my Girl Scout troop. They have a 10x10 foot print which works with just about every campground. They pitch easily (I have children pitching them). They fit two queen air mattresses if that’s how you want to go. You can also fit four cots or (my favorite, you can arrange 3 cots in a U and have plenty of room in the middle to stand and get dressed. Tall enough to stand in. They pack down into something reasonably sized. They’re cost effective. I buy them second hand from people who went camping once and decided they didn’t like it and I end up paying about $50 each. I have 9 of them now.

I love the Coleman 6 person dome tents. I use them for my Girl Scout troop. If you want to use them in colder temps, I recommend the Darkroom over the Sundome. The rainfly goes lower and provides more insulation.

coleman 6 person dome tent. 6' in the center. 4 poles. easy peazy https://preview.redd.it/cgsa2szz287g1.jpeg?width=2048&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=942dd35996873b523a36c83c56faccb2eeb3d258

i THINK it was a sundome - was purchased in 2021

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
