When it's just me and the dog, I have the smaller 2 person Ozark Trail tent. It was 25 bucks and worth every penny. I've had it for 5 years now My wife demanded a tent she can stand up in so we have the Core tent from Costco when she comes along, seems pretty okay in quality. Just annoying to wrestle it back into the bag
Honestly I don’t think you’ll have much trouble. I bought a 6 person Ozark tent for me my son and partner when we went to Utah last year and hadn’t gone since I was 11 or 12 and set it up on my own because they’re so different now lol!!!! Didn’t have to slide poles through fight anything etc. mine just clicked to the poles. So as long as you feel comfortable with the price and brand 2 person Ozark should be ok! Esp to start off. We had good blankets weren’t cold at all had 0 tent issues (:
Lol I meant because some people call them cheap!!! I think they’re decent either way. :D
Their fabric is damn thin. Do not use this tent in rain. You will regret it, I promise.
I have this one which has been great so far. It’s really heavy though. I suppose it doesn’t take up a ton of car space - if they got the6 person version (if there is one) that would probably work out fine. There’s always space under a cot to store stuff also.
For a week of Cub Scout camp in the summer, something you can stand up in to change is good. We’ve used an ozark trail one for the past three summers and been fine, but that’s with a family of four. I’ll thread that one below so this comment doesn’t get deleted if the link gets flagged. For just one parent one scout, we’ve used the done style 4 person tents from Alps and they’re pretty comfy, but even short adults can’t fully stand in them. At that age, most of our cub scouts don’t mind sleeping just in a sleeping bag on the ground (I’m also cubmaster for our small pack). Some families like to use the Coleman quick cabins. These are heavy and don’t do great in high winds, but if you’re driving right up to the campsite they’re super quick to set up and have good head room. Links incoming
Have an Ozark Trail tent I got about 5 years ago for $30 new, basically the same exact same one here. It's been one of the best tents I've owned and really made me reevaluate my approach to outdoor recreation. Weird, I know, but it is what it is.
