3-Person A-Frame Tent

I have that exact A frame Ozark Trails. It's great until the rains come. Still use it all the time on quick trips. It's fast to put up, so if you aren't planning on doing anything but sleeping in it, it's my first choice.

I have an ozark trail orange 2-3 person like this one shown and have had it easily 15 years and gets used 2 a year min. Thing is probably made out of polypropylene and chaos chemicals but it works and was 18.88 when i got it so that’s probably 30$ today.

One. It’s a cheap 2-3 person Ozark Trail tent. I use it for solo camping

I'll start by saying that we camp in the Catskills in a remote area with zero amenities or other campers around. My son started staying in his own tent around age 5 or 6, my aunt had given him an Ozark Trail, probably 2-3 person. His tent was reasonably close to ours, and the dogs slept with him, and I would give him the key fob to my truck, if he were scared or needed us in some way he knew how to use the "panic" button on the remote. He used that tent till the wheels fell off, until I bought him a small Kelty when he was like 17 I think. My daughter started sleeping on her own a little later, probably 7-8, but would switch between our tent and her big brother's for a couple years before that. But same for her, she got the dogs and the key fob and an inexpensive, well reviewed Amazon tent that got replaced in a year or two with a Kelty since since her first tent had gotten damaged, not by her.

We have a 3 person Ozark trail tent that’s held up for like 10 years now. We do have to set up a tarp over it now as it is now longer keeping the rain out. We just bought their 10 person tent last year. I haven’t tested it out in the rain yet though.

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.

I have one of these and can confirm... super easy to set up. A single person can put the whole thing together in just a couple of minutes. Also surprisingly durable for the price. I've had mine for a couple of years now and it still looks new. Have him practice setting it up in your yard before going on the trip.

I had an older version I used for 4 or 5 years, was eventually vandalized (slashed when left on an island too long). I also had kids one for over a decade. Purchased for a girlfriends kid one year. After that i used it for storing wood and other gear I wanted to keep out of the weather.
