It may not be the largest, the tallest, or the most affordable, but it does have everything it takes to make camping easy. With 84 square feet of floor space, there\u2019s plenty of room for up to six campers to slumber under the stars.With a mountaineering-inspired design, the Base Camp 6 employs a durable polyester rainfly that provides full coverage and a sizable vestibule for gear storage, creating 27 square feet of covered space in the front and 17 in the back. Four poles gird the main body and gain strength by intersecting one another, while a final brow pole bumps out the vestibule for added space.Useful features like pockets, a three-point ventilation system, and reflective trim that shines in the light of a headlamp make this tent the place you\u2019ll want to hang out when the weather is fair or foul. Large doors at either end make for an easy exit when nature calls, without having to crawl over all of your tentmates. We also tested this tent with the newly released Base Camp Vehicle Connector, an awning specially made to interface with the 4- and 6-person Base Camp tents and connect your living space to the back of your vehicle. This breezeway made a killer spot to park a quartet of camp chairs, and we dug the versatile accessory.Thanks to the intuitive color-coded poles and attachment points, our team of campers had no trouble erecting the tent in Colorado this spring. For the uninitiated, very clear setup instructions are sewn into the tent\u2019s storage bag. Compared to the similar Mountain Hardwear Bridger, we agreed that the Base Camp is slightly easier to set up.This tent is freestanding, meaning it can stay up without stakes or guylines. While this is quick and convenient for when you roll up to your campsite in the middle of the night, going the extra mile and using all the included stakes and guylines is well worth the effort. Once fully staked out, the Base Camp 6 is impervious to rain and also stands up well against heavy winds. The Base Camp 6 is just a hair over 6 feet at its apex, so taller folks won\u2019t be able to stand straight up, and with a packed weight of 20 pounds, it\u2019s limited to car camping. It\u2019s also one of the more expensive models on our list, but if you\u2019re fortunate enough to get out camping a few times a year, this tent is worth every penny.\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<span itemprop=\"author\" itemscope itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/Organization\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<meta itemprop=\"name\" content=\"GearJunkie\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<meta itemprop=\"datePublished\" content=\"2025-06-17T15:48:14-04:00\">\n\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span itemprop=\"aggregateRating\" itemscope itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/AggregateRating\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<meta itemprop=\"ratingValue\" content=\"8.9\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<meta itemprop=\"bestRating\"  content=\"10\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<meta itemprop=\"worstRating\" content=\"0\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<meta itemprop=\"ratingCount\" content=\"1\">\n\t\t\t\t\t8.9\/10 Rating\n\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<div class=\"top-picks__item-jump-link\">\n\t\t\t\t<a class=\"jump-link\" href=\"#best-overall-camping-tent-rei-co-op-base-camp-6\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">Jump to review<\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<div class=\"top-picks__item-buy-buttons\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"buy-options__wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"buy-options c-button\">BUY OPTIONS <i class=\"chevron\"><\/i><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"buy-options__dropdown\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div itemprop=\"offers\" itemscope itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/Offer\"><meta itemprop=\"price\" content=\"549.00\"><meta itemprop=\"priceCurrency\" content=\"USD\"><a itemprop=\"url\" href=\"https:\/\/rei.pxf.io\/c\/381569\/1448521\/17195?tt=cl&amp;mi&amp;pw=7185&amp;subId1=gjbgoutdoorcampingtents&amp;u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.rei.com%2Fproduct%2F227904%2Frei-co-op-base-camp-6-tent\" class=\"avantlink-buy-button\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">$549 at REI<\/a><link itemprop=\"availability\" href=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/InStock\"><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"top-picks__item\" rel=\"#best-budget-camping-tent-kelty-discovery-basecamp-4\" data-prod-id=\"384381\" style=\"z-index:99\" itemscope itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/Product\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"top-picks__item-info\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3>Best Budget Camping Tent<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2 itemprop=\"name\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Kelty-Discovery-Basecamp-Backpacking-Capacity\/dp\/B096SYP6G8?tag=gearj-20\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">Kelty Discovery Basecamp 4<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t<meta itemprop=\"image\" content=\"https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/images.gearjunkie.com\/uploads\/2024\/03\/ketley.jpg\">\t\t\t\t<span itemprop=\"review\" itemscope itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/Review\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<meta itemprop=\"reviewBody\" content=\"While there is a glut of budget camping tents on the market, too many have gone too far in trimming features and comfort. The Kelty Discovery Basecamp 4 ($120) isn&#039;t one among them, however, and hits all of the bullet points we&#039;re after, without also coming for our wallets. Done up in an instantly recognizable design, this tent doesn&#039;t take many shortcuts.Set up with a crossed-pole design, the Discovery Basecamp makes raising the roof easier, including &#039;Quick Corners&#039; \u2014 which are short pole sleeves to secure the pole ends. From there, modern pole clips suspend the canopy, which, while not our favorite, helps to keep the price down. When testing in Joshua Tree National Park in early spring, we had little issue setting up the tent sans instructions.Some other budget-minded tents (like the REI Co-op Campwell 4) attempt to shave ounces (and dollar signs) by hemming the rainfly up high and tight \u2014 exposing windows to wind-driven rain, but the Discovery Basecamp makes use of a brow pole to set the porch coverage back far and protect the door window. When fully staked and with the rainfly guyed out, this tent does a commendable job keeping its inhabitants dry, especially considering the price. While it only has one door, that door is huge, so access is easy. Each side is lined with a few storage pockets, so you&#039;ll have no problem staying organized and keeping the floor free of knick-knacks. While the Discovery Basecamp takes a more traditional approach, it isn&#039;t the tallest tent, and those looking for more vertical should look to the Eureka Copper Canyon LX \u2014 a cabin-styled tent that trades weather protection for comfort.Available in both a 4- and a 6-person size, the Discovery Basecamp 4 is an easy choice for folks looking for their first camping tent, or even just a beater you aren&#039;t worried about leaving it up on the lawn. Don&#039;t expect it to last forever at $120, but for the money, there are plenty of summers in this tent.\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<span itemprop=\"author\" itemscope itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/Organization\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<meta itemprop=\"name\" content=\"GearJunkie\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<meta itemprop=\"datePublished\" content=\"2025-06-17T15:48:14-04:00\">\n\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span itemprop=\"aggregateRating\" itemscope itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/AggregateRating\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<meta itemprop=\"ratingValue\" content=\"6.8\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<meta itemprop=\"bestRating\"  content=\"10\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<meta itemprop=\"worstRating\" content=\"0\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<meta itemprop=\"ratingCount\" content=\"1\">\n\t\t\t\t\t6.8\/10 Rating\n\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<div class=\"top-picks__item-jump-link\">\n\t\t\t\t<a class=\"jump-link\" href=\"#best-budget-camping-tent-kelty-discovery-basecamp-4\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">Jump to review<\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<div class=\"top-picks__item-buy-buttons\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"buy-options__wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"buy-options c-button\">BUY OPTIONS <i class=\"chevron\"><\/i><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"buy-options__dropdown\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Kelty-Discovery-Basecamp-Backpacking-Capacity\/dp\/B096SYP6G8?tag=gearj-20\" class=\"amazon-buy-button\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">Check Price at Amazon<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/backcountry.tnu8.net\/c\/381569\/358742\/5311?subId1=gjbgoutdoorcampingstoves&#038;u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.backcountry.com%2Fkelty-discovery-basecamp-4-tent-4-person-3-season\" class=\"regular-buy-button\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">Check Price at Backcountry<\/a>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"top-picks__item\" rel=\"#best-tent-for-families-rei-co-op-wonderland-x\" data-prod-id=\"206342\" style=\"z-index:98\" itemscope itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/Product\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"top-picks__item-info\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3>Best Tent for Families<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2 itemprop=\"name\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/rei.pxf.io\/c\/381569\/1448521\/17195?tt=el&#038;merchant_id&#038;website_id&#038;u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.rei.com%2Fproduct%2F202276%2Frei-co-op-wonderland-x-tent&#038;subId1=gjbgoutdoorcampingtents\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">REI Co-op Wonderland X<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t<meta itemprop=\"image\" content=\"https:\/\/s3.amazonaws.com\/images.gearjunkie.com\/uploads\/2022\/05\/REI-Co-op-Wonderland-X-tent.jpg\">\t\t\t\t<span itemprop=\"review\" itemscope itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/Review\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<meta itemprop=\"reviewBody\" content=\"Read Review: REI Wonderland X Tent Review: A Versatile 4-Person Palace for Car CampersThe REI Co-op Wonderland X ($999) is a very large and unique tent that makes an incredibly spacious abode. Designed as a four-person car camping tent, the Wonderland X is so much more. We&#039;ve tested this tent since the spring of 2022 and are still blown away by the unique tunnel design with interior sleeping quarters \u2014 perfect for a weekend with the entire family.While optimized for a group of four, the Wonderland X serves as a giant camping shelter and a big hangout space. By removing the interior sleeping quarters, the shelter becomes a 13 x 9-foot floorless shelter. It can easily cover a picnic table, the tailgate of a truck, or even a small car.REI built the Wonderland X with extremely heavy materials, ensuring a very long life if properly maintained. And at 35 pounds, this tent is definitely not coming backpacking \u2014 but for those looking at an alternative to canvas wall tents or just a very robust, large car camping setup, this tent is the pinnacle.Put to the test, the tent performed perfectly in windy and rainy conditions, where the enormous awning provided space for lounging and cooking for four adult men. Copious guylines can be a bit much to get your head around, but in truly unsettled weather, they&#039;re the perfect solution to keeping the Wonderland X where it belongs.Those looking for a similar design but at a lower price should also consider the Wonderland 4 and Wonderland 6, which work on the same principles but use lighter, less expensive materials. For the real-deal family palace, however, it&#039;s the Wonderland X for us.\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<span itemprop=\"author\" itemscope itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/Organization\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<meta itemprop=\"name\" content=\"GearJunkie\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<meta itemprop=\"datePublished\" content=\"2025-06-17T15:48:14-04:00\">\n\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span itemprop=\"aggregateRating\" itemscope itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/AggregateRating\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<meta itemprop=\"ratingValue\" content=\"8.6\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<meta itemprop=\"bestRating\"  content=\"10\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<meta itemprop=\"worstRating\" content=\"0\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<meta itemprop=\"ratingCount\" content=\"1\">\n\t\t\t\t\t8.6\/10 Rating\n\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<div class=\"top-picks__item-jump-link\">\n\t\t\t\t<a class=\"jump-link\" href=\"#best-tent-for-families-rei-co-op-wonderland-x\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">Jump to review<\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<div class=\"top-picks__item-buy-buttons\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"buy-options__wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"buy-options c-button\">BUY OPTIONS <i class=\"chevron\"><\/i><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"buy-options__dropdown\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div itemprop=\"offers\" itemscope itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/Offer\"><meta itemprop=\"price\" content=\"999.00\"><meta itemprop=\"priceCurrency\" content=\"USD\"><a itemprop=\"url\" href=\"https:\/\/rei.pxf.io\/c\/381569\/1448521\/17195?tt=el&amp;merchant_id&amp;website_id&amp;u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.rei.com%2Fproduct%2F202276%2Frei-co-op-wonderland-x-tent&amp;subId1=gjbgoutdoorcampingtents\" class=\"avantlink-buy-button\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">$999 at REI<\/a><link itemprop=\"availability\" href=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/InStock\"><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"top-picks__item\" rel=\"#best-in-vestibule-storage-space-the-north-face-wawona-4\" data-prod-id=\"206376\" style=\"z-index:97\" itemscope itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/Product\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"top-picks__item-info\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3>Best in Vestibule Storage Space<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2 itemprop=\"name\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/rei.pxf.io\/c\/381569\/1448521\/17195?tt=cl&#038;mi&#038;pw=7185&#038;subId1=gjbgoutdoorcampingtents&#038;u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.rei.com%2Fproduct%2F242718%2Fthe-north-face-wawona-4-tent\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">The North Face Wawona 4<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t<meta itemprop=\"image\" content=\"https:\/\/s3.amazonaws.com\/images.gearjunkie.com\/uploads\/2022\/11\/The-North-Face-Wawona-4.jpg\">\t\t\t\t<span itemprop=\"review\" itemscope itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/Review\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<meta itemprop=\"reviewBody\" content=\"Recently updated, The North Face Wawona 4 ($450) got a second skin, going from a single- to double-wall design, and its poles have been re-engineered for easier setup \u2014 both worthy upgrades. The tent did just become $50 more expensive, which blunts the benefits a bit, but we still think it&#039;s a solid shelter.It\u2019s the small things that make the Wawona (which, if you\u2019re wondering, was the name of a famous giant sequoia in Yosemite National Park) tick. A unique hooped pole design kicks out the large vestibule to a comfy 28 square feet of space and provides plenty of dry room to shuffle gear about.Then there are the interior features: A smaller rear door doubles as an organizational center, while an interior height of 68 inches allows for easy walking about inside the tent. We greatly appreciated the breathability built into the Wawona on a night camping in Washington\u2019s San Juan Islands, where moisture from the sea can be heavy, and keeping air moving is a priority.\u00a0We struggled with the rainfly the first go around, as it has an unusual shape that goes to the ground at the vestibule and then up to window height along the body of the tent. Once we figured out which way was up, snapping it into place was an (adjustable) breeze.\u00a0The fly also doesn&#039;t cover the rear door, although it does sport a waterproof zipper. Our testing hasn\u2019t shown this to be a weak point necessarily, but we have our doubts the tent would keep a heavy rain entirely at bay. It&#039;s because of this that the more weather-resistant REI Co-op Base Camp 6 ranks higher in our lineup.For more fair weather conditions, however, the Wawona 4 offers a boatload of space for families that bring plenty along on their camping trips. Just consider what the weatherperson has in store for you.\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<span itemprop=\"author\" itemscope itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/Organization\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<meta itemprop=\"name\" content=\"GearJunkie\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<meta itemprop=\"datePublished\" content=\"2025-06-17T15:48:14-04:00\">\n\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span itemprop=\"aggregateRating\" itemscope itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/AggregateRating\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<meta itemprop=\"ratingValue\" content=\"8.0\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<meta itemprop=\"bestRating\"  content=\"10\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<meta itemprop=\"worstRating\" content=\"0\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<meta itemprop=\"ratingCount\" content=\"1\">\n\t\t\t\t\t8.0\/10 Rating\n\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<div class=\"top-picks__item-jump-link\">\n\t\t\t\t<a class=\"jump-link\" href=\"#best-in-vestibule-storage-space-the-north-face-wawona-4\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">Jump to review<\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<div class=\"top-picks__item-buy-buttons\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"buy-options__wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"buy-options c-button\">BUY OPTIONS <i class=\"chevron\"><\/i><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"buy-options__dropdown\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div itemprop=\"offers\" itemscope itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/Offer\"><meta itemprop=\"price\" content=\"450.00\"><meta itemprop=\"priceCurrency\" content=\"USD\"><a itemprop=\"url\" href=\"https:\/\/rei.pxf.io\/c\/381569\/1448521\/17195?tt=cl&amp;mi&amp;pw=7185&amp;subId1=gjbgoutdoorcampingtents&amp;u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.rei.com%2Fproduct%2F242718%2Fthe-north-face-wawona-4-tent\" class=\"avantlink-buy-button\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">$450 at REI<\/a><link itemprop=\"availability\" href=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/InStock\"><\/div><a href=\"https:\/\/backcountry.tnu8.net\/c\/381569\/358742\/5311?subId1=gjbgoutdoorcampingtents&#038;u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.backcountry.com%2Fthe-north-face-wawona-4-tent-4-person-3-season\" class=\"regular-buy-button\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">Check price at backcountry<\/a>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"top-picks__item\" rel=\"#most-livable-4-person-camping-tent-nemo-aurora-highrise-4p\" data-prod-id=\"206378\" style=\"z-index:96\" itemscope itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/Product\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"top-picks__item-info\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3>Most Livable 4-Person Camping Tent<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2 itemprop=\"name\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/rei.pxf.io\/c\/381569\/1448521\/17195?u=https%253A%252F%252Fwww.rei.com%252Fproduct%252F241346%252Fnemo-aurora-highrise-4-person-tent\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">NEMO Aurora Highrise 4P<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t<meta itemprop=\"image\" content=\"https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/images.gearjunkie.com\/uploads\/2023\/02\/nemo-aurora-highrise-4-person-tent.jpg\">\t\t\t\t<span itemprop=\"review\" itemscope itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/Review\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<meta itemprop=\"reviewBody\" content=\"Forget hunching over \u2014 the NEMO Aurora Highrise 4P Tent ($400) has got headroom to spare. Sporting a tent pole design that bumps out the exterior walls to near vertical, we had no issues with bumping around inside this tent, and no scrunching was needed. The Aurora Highrise does the most with its footprint, and we think it&#039;s the most livable 4-person tent out there currently.While the 75-inch peak height isn\u2019t quite the tallest in our testing, this height extends far out from the interior, allowing for easy maneuvering for setting up a sleeping pad or just squeezing past a tentmate. A cabin-style tent like the Eureka Copper Canyon will have more headroom overall, but will suffer much more with high winds.Behind the two doors (which can be folded away into what NEMO calls the Door Jamb pocket) is a full 62.5 sq. ft. of floor space, which has been printed with a fun argyle pattern to lighten up the tent. It\u2019s the little features like this that really up the livability, and after spending a week in the Aurora this spring in Joshua Tree National Park, we came to love our groovy space.During testing, we found the dual vestibules to provide plenty of space for storing equipment during the night, though not quite large enough to lounge under shade. The four-person version of this tent was perfectly sized for three testers, though we could easily see a family of four enjoying the space, or even a couple having a luxuriously large camping hideout.While the large side windows do provide an excellent view (and plenty of ventilation), the rainfly does stop short of providing full coverage over them. While this won\u2019t be an issue in typical rain, wind-driven rain will have the ability to soak into these seams.\u00a0It&#039;s for this reason that the Aurora Highrise doesn&#039;t find itself higher on our list.A family-sized tent that\u2019s sized for everyone in the family, the Aurora Highrise is available in both a 4-person and 6-person offering.\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<span itemprop=\"author\" itemscope itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/Organization\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<meta itemprop=\"name\" content=\"GearJunkie\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<meta itemprop=\"datePublished\" content=\"2025-06-17T15:48:14-04:00\">\n\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span itemprop=\"aggregateRating\" itemscope itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/AggregateRating\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<meta itemprop=\"ratingValue\" content=\"8.4\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<meta itemprop=\"bestRating\"  content=\"10\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<meta itemprop=\"worstRating\" content=\"0\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<meta itemprop=\"ratingCount\" content=\"1\">\n\t\t\t\t\t8.4\/10 Rating\n\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<div class=\"top-picks__item-jump-link\">\n\t\t\t\t<a class=\"jump-link\" href=\"#most-livable-4-person-camping-tent-nemo-aurora-highrise-4p\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">Jump to review<\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<div class=\"top-picks__item-buy-buttons\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"buy-options__wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"buy-options c-button\">BUY OPTIONS <i class=\"chevron\"><\/i><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"buy-options__dropdown\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/rei.pxf.io\/c\/381569\/1448521\/17195?u=https%253A%252F%252Fwww.rei.com%252Fproduct%252F241346%252Fnemo-aurora-highrise-4-person-tent\" class=\"regular-buy-button\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">Check Price at REI<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/backcountry.tnu8.net\/c\/381569\/358742\/5311?subId1=gjbgoutdoorcampingtents&#038;u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.backcountry.com%2Fnemo-equipment-inc.-aurora-highrise-tent-4-person-3-season\" class=\"regular-buy-button\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">Check Price at Backcountry<\/a>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"top-picks__item\" rel=\"#best-crossover-tent-for-camping-and-backpacking-rei-co-op-half-dome-2-plus\" data-prod-id=\"549800\" style=\"z-index:95\" itemscope itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/Product\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"top-picks__item-info\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3>Best Crossover Tent for Camping and Backpacking<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2 itemprop=\"name\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/rei.pxf.io\/c\/381569\/1448521\/17195?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.rei.com%2Fproduct%2F243700%2Frei-co-op-half-dome-2-plus-tent-with-footprint\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">REI Co-op Half Dome 2 Plus<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t<meta itemprop=\"image\" content=\"https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/images.gearjunkie.com\/uploads\/2025\/04\/Screenshot-2025-04-07-at-10.59.24-AM.jpg\">\t\t\t\t<span itemprop=\"review\" itemscope itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/Review\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<meta itemprop=\"reviewBody\" content=\"With 45(!) years under its belt, the REI Co-op Half Dome 2 Plus ($359) design has been around the campsite once or twice. Newly redesigned this year, the 2 Plus version adds extra room to this two-person shelter, and makes it the perfect do-it-most tent.The Half Dome 2 Plus is sold as a backpacking tent, but after significant use, we think it lands smack dab between being carried in a pack and working as a stellar front country shelter. Editor Will Brendza (and his trusty pup) recently took this tent out into the early spring of Colorado, where it showed what 45 years of design get you.Setup is a cinch, and the multi-hub pole design means there\u2019s only one to wrangle here and get clipped into the tent body. Three minutes is about all the time we needed to get the rest of the tent up and settled. From here, we admired the recent updates to the structure that bumped out the headspace, making this a true 2+ shelter.The floor plan of this tent is 4\u201d longer and wider than the 2-person version, and that (along with the extra 2\u201d of height) makes it roomy enough to enjoy while camping. Other highlights we found were a bevy of internal pockets for wrangling kit, as well as the ability to drop the top on the rainfly on dry evenings, which means stargazing is fully on the menu.The 6-pound weight makes this a heavy backpacking tent, but a super light camping one. The 36 sq. foot floor area may be a bit cramped for really base camping in this tent, and for those looking for a bit more wiggle room, we\u2019d suggest bumping up to the Half Dome 3.We\u2019ve previously recommended the Mountain Hardware Mineral King series as a backpacking\/car camping crossover and still think it\u2019s a solid shelter, but the Half Dome does it slightly better. Tougher materials, a more intuitive pole design, and a cheaper price all combine to put this tent over the top.\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<span itemprop=\"author\" itemscope itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/Organization\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<meta itemprop=\"name\" content=\"GearJunkie\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<meta itemprop=\"datePublished\" content=\"2025-06-17T15:48:14-04:00\">\n\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span itemprop=\"aggregateRating\" itemscope itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/AggregateRating\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<meta itemprop=\"ratingValue\" content=\"8.9\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<meta itemprop=\"bestRating\"  content=\"10\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<meta itemprop=\"worstRating\" content=\"0\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<meta itemprop=\"ratingCount\" content=\"1\">\n\t\t\t\t\t8.9\/10 Rating\n\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<div class=\"top-picks__item-jump-link\">\n\t\t\t\t<a class=\"jump-link\" href=\"#best-crossover-tent-for-camping-and-backpacking-rei-co-op-half-dome-2-plus\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">Jump to review<\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<div class=\"top-picks__item-buy-buttons\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"buy-options__wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"buy-options c-button\">BUY OPTIONS <i class=\"chevron\"><\/i><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"buy-options__dropdown\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/rei.pxf.io\/c\/381569\/1448521\/17195?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.rei.com%2Fproduct%2F243700%2Frei-co-op-half-dome-2-plus-tent-with-footprint\" class=\"regular-buy-button\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">Check Price at REI Co-op<\/a>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<a role=\"button\" href=\"#\" class=\"show-more-picks\">See more picks<i class=\"chevron\"><\/i><\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-text-color has-opacity-color has-alpha-channel-opacity has-opacity-background-color has-background is-style-wide\"\/>\n\n\n<div class=\"bg-ad\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"product-info   \" id=\"best-overall-camping-tent-rei-co-op-base-camp-6\">\n\t<div class=\"product-info__content\" itemscope itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/Product\">\n\n\t\t<!-- context title -->\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"product-info__context-title\">\n\t\t\tBest Overall Camping Tent\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t<div class=\"product-block__header\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"product-block__header-infos\">\n\n\t\t\t\t<!-- title -->\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"entry-title\" itemprop=\"name\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/rei.pxf.io\/c\/381569\/1448521\/17195?tt=cl&#038;mi&#038;pw=7185&#038;subId1=gjbgoutdoorcampingtents&#038;u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.rei.com%2Fproduct%2F227904%2Frei-co-op-base-camp-6-tent\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\tREI Co-op Base Camp 6\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n<div class=\"product-info__button-box\">\n\t<a href=\"https:\/\/rei.pxf.io\/c\/381569\/1448521\/17195?tt=cl&amp;mi&amp;pw=7185&amp;subId1=gjbgoutdoorcampingtents&amp;u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.rei.com%2Fproduct%2F227904%2Frei-co-op-base-camp-6-tent\" class=\"avantlink-buy-button c-button c-button--large\">$549 at REI<\/a><\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div><!-- end header.infos -->\n\n\t\t\t<div class=\"product-block__featured-image\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"c-entry__thumbnail wp-block-image\" href=\"https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/images.gearjunkie.com\/uploads\/2023\/02\/076c4dd0-b476-4f5d-98fa-fc380deb1d8f.jpeg\" rel=\"bookmark\" aria-label=\"Product Affiliate Link\">\n\t\t<img width=\"2000\" height=\"1401\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml,&lt;svg xmlns=&quot;http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg&quot;

It may not be the largest, the tallest, or the most affordable, but it does have everything it takes to make camping easy. With 84 square feet of floor space, there\u2019s plenty of room for up to six campers to slumber under the stars.<\/p><p>With a mountaineering-inspired design, the Base Camp 6 employs a durable polyester rainfly that provides full coverage and a sizable vestibule for gear storage, creating 27 square feet of covered space in the front and 17 in the back. Four poles gird the main body and gain strength by intersecting one another, while a final brow pole bumps out the vestibule for added space.<\/p><p>Useful features like pockets, a three-point ventilation system, and reflective trim that shines in the light of a headlamp make this tent the place you\u2019ll want to hang out when the weather is fair or foul. Large doors at either end make for an easy exit when nature calls, without having to crawl over all of your tentmates. <\/p><p>We also tested this tent with the newly released <a href=\"https:\/\/rei.pxf.io\/c\/381569\/1448521\/17195?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.rei.com%2Fproduct%2F227903%2Frei-co-op-base-camp-vehicle-connector\">Base Camp Vehicle Connector<\/a>, an awning specially made to interface with the 4- and 6-person Base Camp tents and connect your living space to the back of your vehicle. This breezeway made a killer spot to park a quartet of camp chairs, and we dug the versatile accessory.<\/p><p>Thanks to the intuitive color-coded poles and attachment points, our team of campers had no trouble erecting the tent in Colorado this spring. For the uninitiated, very clear setup instructions are sewn into the tent\u2019s storage bag. Compared to the similar Mountain Hardwear Bridger, we agreed that the Base Camp is slightly easier to set up.<\/p><p>This tent is freestanding, meaning it can stay up without stakes or guylines. While this is quick and convenient for when you roll up to your campsite in the middle of the night, going the extra mile and using all the included stakes and guylines is well worth the effort. Once fully staked out, the Base Camp 6 is impervious to rain and also stands up well against heavy winds. <\/p><p>The Base Camp 6 is just a hair over 6 feet at its apex, so taller folks won\u2019t be able to stand straight up, and with a packed weight of 20 pounds, it\u2019s limited to car camping. It\u2019s also one of the more expensive models on our list, but if you\u2019re fortunate enough to get out camping a few times a year, this tent is worth every penny.<\/p><\/div>\n<div

The <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/rei.pxf.io\/c\/381569\/1448521\/17195?tt=cl&amp;mi&amp;pw=7185&amp;u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.rei.com%2Fproduct%2F202471%2Fkelty-discovery-basecamp-4-tent&amp;subId1=gjbgoutdoorcampingtents\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Kelty Discovery Basecamp 4<\/a> <\/strong>($120) isn&#8217;t one among them, however, and hits all of the bullet points we&#8217;re after, without also coming for our wallets. Done up in an instantly recognizable design, this tent doesn&#8217;t take many shortcuts.<\/p><p>Set up with a crossed-pole design, the Discovery Basecamp makes raising the roof easier, including &#8216;Quick Corners&#8217; \u2014 which are short pole sleeves to secure the pole ends. From there, modern pole clips suspend the canopy, which, while not our favorite, helps to keep the price down. When testing in Joshua Tree National Park in early spring, we had little issue setting up the tent sans instructions.<\/p><p>Some other budget-minded tents (like the REI Co-op Campwell 4) attempt to shave ounces (and dollar signs) by hemming the rainfly up high and tight \u2014 exposing windows to wind-driven rain, but the Discovery Basecamp makes use of a brow pole to set the porch coverage back far and protect the door window. When fully staked and with the rainfly guyed out, this tent does a commendable job keeping its inhabitants dry, especially considering the price. <\/p><p>While it only has one door, that door is huge, so access is easy. Each side is lined with a few storage pockets, so you&#8217;ll have no problem staying organized and keeping the floor free of knick-knacks. While the Discovery Basecamp takes a more traditional approach, it isn&#8217;t the tallest tent, and those looking for more vertical should look to the Eureka Copper Canyon LX \u2014 a cabin-styled tent that trades weather protection for comfort.<\/p><p>Available in both a 4- and a 6-person size, the Discovery Basecamp 4 is an easy choice for folks looking for their first camping tent, or even just a beater you aren&#8217;t worried about leaving it up on the lawn. Don&#8217;t expect it to last forever at $120, but for the money, there are plenty of summers in this tent.<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"product__gallery\">\n\t<div

Designed as a four-person car camping tent, the Wonderland X is so much more. We&#8217;ve tested this tent since the spring of 2022 and are still blown away by the unique tunnel design with interior sleeping quarters \u2014 perfect for a weekend with the entire family.<\/p><p>While optimized for a group of four, the Wonderland X serves as a giant camping shelter and a big hangout space. By removing the interior sleeping quarters, the shelter becomes a 13 x 9-foot floorless shelter. It can easily cover a picnic table, the tailgate of a truck, or even a small car.<\/p><p><span style=\"font-size: var(--font-size--normal);background-color: var(--color--background);color: var(--color--text-primary);font-family: var(--font-family--primary)\">REI built the<\/span> Wonderland X<span style=\"font-size: var(--font-size--normal);color: var(--color--text-primary);font-family: var(--font-family--primary);background-color: var(--color--background)\"> with extremely heavy materials, ensuring a very long life if properly maintained. And at 35 pounds, this tent is definitely not coming backpacking \u2014 but for those looking at an alternative to canvas wall tents or just a very robust, large car camping setup, this tent is the pinnacle<\/span>.<\/p><p>Put to the test, the tent performed perfectly in windy and rainy conditions, where the enormous awning provided space for lounging and cooking for four adult men. Copious guylines can be a bit much to get your head around, but in truly unsettled weather, they&#8217;re the perfect solution to keeping the Wonderland X where it belongs.<\/p><p><span

The tent did just become $50 more expensive, which blunts the benefits a bit, but we still think it&#8217;s a solid shelter.<\/p><p>It\u2019s the small things that make the Wawona (which, if you\u2019re wondering, was the name of a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nps.gov\/seki\/faqtunnel.htm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>famous giant sequoia<\/strong><\/a> in Yosemite National Park) tick. A unique hooped pole design kicks out the large vestibule to a comfy 28 square feet of space and provides plenty of dry room to shuffle gear about.<\/p><p>Then there are the interior features: A smaller rear door doubles as an organizational center, while an interior height of 68 inches allows for easy walking about inside the tent. We greatly appreciated the breathability built into the Wawona on a night camping in Washington\u2019s San Juan Islands, where moisture from the sea can be heavy, and keeping air moving is a priority.\u00a0<\/p><p>We struggled with the rainfly the first go around, as it has an unusual shape that goes to the ground at the vestibule and then up to window height along the body of the tent. Once we figured out which way was up, snapping it into place was an (adjustable) breeze.\u00a0<\/p><p>The fly also doesn&#8217;t cover the rear door, although it does sport a waterproof zipper. Our testing hasn\u2019t shown this to be a weak point necessarily, but we have our doubts the tent would keep a heavy rain entirely at bay. It&#8217;s because of this that the more weather-resistant REI Co-op Base Camp 6 ranks higher in our lineup.<\/p><p>For more fair weather conditions, however, the Wawona 4 offers a boatload of space for families that bring plenty along on their camping trips. Just consider what the weatherperson has in store for you.<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"product__gallery swiper swiper-main-206376685fcede8ce32\" data-product-id=\"206376685fcede8ce32\">\n\t<div

Sporting a tent pole design that bumps out the exterior walls to near vertical, we had no issues with bumping around inside this tent, and no scrunching was needed. The Aurora Highrise does the most with its footprint, and we think it&#8217;s the most livable 4-person tent out there currently.<\/p><p>While the 75-inch peak height isn\u2019t quite the tallest in our testing, this height extends far out from the interior, allowing for easy maneuvering for setting up a sleeping pad or just squeezing past a tentmate. A cabin-style tent like the Eureka Copper Canyon will have more headroom overall, but will suffer much more with high winds.<\/p><p>Behind the two doors (which can be folded away into what NEMO calls the Door Jamb pocket) is a full 62.5 sq. ft. of floor space, which has been printed with a fun argyle pattern to lighten up the tent. It\u2019s the little features like this that really up the livability, and after spending a week in the Aurora this spring in Joshua Tree National Park, we came to love our groovy space.<\/p><p>During testing, we found the dual vestibules to provide plenty of space for storing equipment during the night, though not quite large enough to lounge under shade. The four-person version of this tent was perfectly sized for three testers, though we could easily see a family of four enjoying the space, or even a couple having a luxuriously large camping hideout.<\/p><p>While the large side windows<strong> <\/strong>do provide an excellent view (and plenty of ventilation), the rainfly does stop short of providing full coverage over them. While this won\u2019t be an issue in typical rain, wind-driven rain will have the ability to soak into these seams.\u00a0It&#8217;s for this reason that the Aurora Highrise doesn&#8217;t find itself higher on our list.<\/p><p>A family-sized tent that\u2019s sized for everyone in the family, the Aurora Highrise is available in both a 4-person and <a

Plus Review\t<\/a>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"product-info__footer-text\" itemprop=\"\">\t<p>With 45(!) years under its belt, the <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/rei.pxf.io\/c\/381569\/1448521\/17195?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.rei.com%2Fproduct%2F243700%2Frei-co-op-half-dome-2-plus-tent-with-footprint\">REI Co-op Half Dome 2 Plus<\/a><\/strong> ($359) design has been around the campsite once or twice. Newly redesigned this year, the 2 Plus version adds extra room to this two-person shelter, and makes it the perfect do-it-most tent.<\/p><p>The Half Dome 2 Plus is sold as a backpacking tent, but after significant use, we think it lands smack dab between being carried in a pack and working as a stellar front country shelter. Editor Will Brendza (and his trusty pup) recently took this tent out into the early spring of Colorado, where it showed what 45 years of design get you.<\/p><p>Setup is a cinch, and the multi-hub pole design means there\u2019s only one to wrangle here and get clipped into the tent body. Three minutes is about all the time we needed to get the rest of the tent up and settled. From here, we admired the recent updates to the structure that bumped out the headspace, making this a true 2+ shelter.<\/p><p>The floor plan of this tent is 4\u201d longer and wider than the 2-person version, and that (along with the extra 2\u201d of height) makes it roomy enough to enjoy while camping. Other highlights we found were a bevy of internal pockets for wrangling kit, as well as the ability to drop the top on the rainfly on dry evenings, which means stargazing is fully on the menu.<\/p><p>The 6-pound weight makes this a heavy backpacking tent, but a super light camping one. The 36 sq. foot floor area may be a bit cramped for really base camping in this tent, and for those looking for a bit more wiggle room, we\u2019d suggest bumping up to the <a href=\"https:\/\/rei.pxf.io\/c\/381569\/1448521\/17195?tt=cl&amp;mi&amp;pw=7185&amp;subId1=&amp;u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.rei.com%2Fproduct%2F243736%2Frei-co-op-half-dome-3-tent-with-footprint\">Half Dome 3<\/a>.<\/p><p>We\u2019ve previously recommended the Mountain Hardware Mineral King series as a backpacking\/car camping crossover and still think it\u2019s a solid shelter, but the Half Dome does it slightly better. Tougher materials, a more intuitive pole design, and a cheaper price all combine to put this tent over the top.<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"product__gallery swiper swiper-main-549800685fcede9b1fb\" data-product-id=\"549800685fcede9b1fb\">\n\t<div class=\"product__gallery-wrapper swiper-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"gallery__item-wrapper swiper-slide\">\n\t\t\t<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\">\n\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml,&lt;svg xmlns=&quot;http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg&quot;

Compared to the lighter-duty version, the newly updated tent drops the fly to the ground, bumps up the ceiling, and boasts a fully freestanding \u2018sun shelter mode\u2019 that greatly ups the versatility.<\/p><p>Available in your standard family sizes of 4-, 6-, and 8-person capacities, we tested the 4-person offering in the summer of 2024 across the Pacific Northwest, and it won over our campers left and right. We challenged ourselves to set up camping tents without instructions on the first go, and besides some added helping hands, we had little issue getting the Bunk House up in about 10 minutes.<\/p><p>The 58-square-foot sleeping area is on par with most 4-person shelters, but the added 2\u201d of headroom over the Big House makes a surprising difference in livability. An additional pole supports the ample vestibule space, which sports enough room to wrangle our coolers and chairs, and even rolls out a welcome mat to park your shoes on.<\/p><p>The Bunk House finds itself in good company in our lineup. Other batten-down-the-hatch shelters compare well, though there are a few differences to consider. For true shelter-shaking storms, we found the Base Camp performs better due to its additional crossed poles, and while the vestibule of the Bunk House is spacious, the Bridger is undeniably better suited for hanging out under.<\/p><p>Neither of those tents, however, can set up the fly by itself, and this is the big selling point of the Bunk House. A <a href=\"https:\/\/gearjunkie.com\/camping\/best-canopy-tent\">good canopy tent<\/a> can act as a mobile dining room or keep tykes out of the sun, and when set up without the inner, the Bunk House accomplishes both and more. Actual setup is a bit finicky (there\u2019s a webbing harness to contend with), but once it\u2019s managed, the canopy rivals even some of our favorite purpose-built options.<\/p><p>At an asking price of $600, the Bunk House 4 is pricier than most similar options, so in our opinion, it comes down to whether you\u2019ll use that fly-only ability. If not, tents like the REI Co-op Base Camp or The North Face Wawona will likely suit you better. But as a two-for-one option, it\u2019s tough to beat the Bunk House.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<hr class=\"product-block__break\"><\/hr>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div><!-- end footer

Campwell 4 Tent Review\t<\/a>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"product-info__footer-text\" itemprop=\"\">\t<p>The <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/rei.pxf.io\/c\/381569\/1448521\/17195?tt=cl&amp;mi&amp;pw=7185&amp;subId1=gjproutdoorgeneral&amp;u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.rei.com%2Fproduct%2F227863%2Frei-co-op-campwell-4-tent\">REI Co-op Campwell 4<\/a><\/strong> ($229) is our recommendation for fair-weather family campers. Designed as a low-barrier-of-entry option, this tent is ideal for campgrounds, car camping, and folks looking to upgrade from their big-box store tents. We still think that the Kelty Discovery Basecamp is a slightly better budget model, but the Campwell does have a leg up on it in a few places.<\/p><p>Best described as a squat cabin-style tent, the Campwell makes full use of its footprint and sports nearly vertical walls to bump out the interior space. That said, overhead height isn\u2019t towering at 62 inches, but we don\u2019t think that\u2019s necessarily a terrible thing: the tent is a bit den-like and cozy to jump into.<\/p><p>Set-up is simple, which is a bonus when introducing folks to the outdoors (little else sucks the fun out of camping like a complicated tent to wrestle). The two fiberglass poles cross at the top of the shelter and are the same length, meaning no shuffling around looking for the right one. After that, simple pole clips support the canopy.<\/p><p>The toupee-style rainfly was never meant to be the most protective, but it is easy to toss on the tent. We\u2019ve weathered light showers and been perfectly dry, but once the winds brew, you begin to wish you had a more storm-worthy shelter. The rear window is particularly vulnerable, as it is only covered by a flap on the interior.<\/p><p>So, if the skies might open up? Look into one of the more weather-ready options we&#8217;ve reviewed, like the REI Basecamp or Marmot Limestone. But if you&#8217;ve got confidence in the weather forecast? The Campwell 4 is an excellent option.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<hr class=\"product-block__break\"><\/hr>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div><!-- end footer -->\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<div

Nearly every tent experienced some damage ranging from broken poles to leaks. The <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/backcountry.tnu8.net\/c\/381569\/358742\/5311?subId1=gjbgoutdoorcampingtents&amp;u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.backcountry.com%2Fmarmot-limestone-tent-6-person-3-season&amp;subId3=xid:fr1732719039020jih\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Marmot Limestone 6P<\/a><\/strong> ($529) was completely unfazed. It remained sturdy and dry through it all.<\/p><p>It&#8217;s not as tall or roomy as some car camping tents, but the sacrifice of space is worth it for excellent weather protection. In 83 square feet of floor space, you can fit six people or spread out and sleep comfortably with just four. Near-vertical walls help to bump up the livability, and while the vestibule is a bit snug, the interior is rightfully cozy. <\/p><p>The large double doors make coming and going easy. Pre-bent poles make for a quick setup. There is a vestibule on one side for holding extra gear, and interior gear pockets keep you organized, and there is plenty of mesh that allows for maximum airflow. Newly redesigned, the Limestone gains a few added rainfly vents with integrated struts for propping them open.<\/p><p>Because the rainfly design is closely related to backpacking tents, there are certain areas of the fly where it can touch the mesh of the inner, which can lead to dribbles in high condensation conditions \u2014 a result a few of our testers noted. Properly guying out the shelter can help alleviate this, in conjunction with the newly added vents. For most poor-weather trips, we more often reach for the REI Base Camp.<\/p><p>But if the REI Co-op Base Camp is a bit too rich for your blood, the Limestone 6P\u00a0is built to withstand storms and is a great choice for anyone camping in unpredictable, inclement weather.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<hr class=\"product-block__break\"><\/hr>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div><!-- end footer

Twin vestibules boast more square footage than even the sleeping area, making a tent that\u2019s as much about hanging out as it is snoozing in.<\/p><p>Starting from the inside, the Bridger 6 keeps the living large with 89.4 square feet of sleeping quarters, and steep walls that meet at a 76-inch peak height. The tent is supported by a classic two-pole configuration, with an additional ridge pole that props up the peaks of the entry and exits.<\/p><p>A full-coverage rainfly encompasses everything on the exterior and extends 7 feet for the front vestibule. When we initially tested this tent in the spring of 2023, our campers flocked to this spot to kick back and store gear in. It easily accommodates a handful of camp chairs, a cooler, or even a couple of parked bikes \u2014 and now with a few seasons under the belt, it&#8217;s still the tent to hang in.<\/p><p>The doors also feature a saloon-style zip, meaning the interior can be melded into the hang-out zone. Then there\u2019s the storage: 8 pockets on the interior, as well as 2 organizers that hang inside the vestibule space \u2014 each sporting 3 pockets. We found these especially handy during the day, as we didn\u2019t need to enter\/exit the tent to snag what we needed.<\/p><p>In terms of set-up, the Bridger does take a few minutes to set up. The extended vestibule is a dream once in place, but it did make single-handed setup a bit of a wrestling match. Breaking down the tent goes smoothly, however, and it packs away into one of the nicest zip-up storage bags we\u2019ve seen in a tent.<\/p><p>Perfect as a camping basecamp for a group, the Bridger Tent brings the party from inside to out, and while it&#8217;s nearly the most expensive on our list, it&#8217;s amenable to many different camping scenarios and ensures it\u2019ll be around for endless campfires. If the price just won&#8217;t fly, consider the REI Co-op Base Camp 6 \u2014 a $549 option with more sleeping space, but less room to hang in.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<hr

The 7-foot-tall interior height means no more awkward stooping.<\/p><p>And with 64 square feet of floor space, there&#8217;s plenty of room to spread out. We found this provided a comfortable amount of space for two adults and two young children. Each wall is lined with pockets, which is great for keeping track of your headlamp and storing other essentials.<\/p><p>The best part about this tent is the airy feel and giant mesh windows. Not only does it keep things breathable, but it also means you can easily enjoy the view in any direction. We spent a week camping outside Moab and loved relaxing in the tent while watching the sunrise.<\/p><p>That said, the benefits of this tent are also its downfall. The tall height and large windows can be problematic in stormy weather. High winds will challenge any tent, and that&#8217;s especially true of a tent that&#8217;s 7 feet tall. Like other cabin-style tents (such as the Eureka Copper Canyon LX we also tested), fair-weather camping is more the vibe for this tent.<\/p><p>The window zip closed, and the included rainfly protects from rainfall. However, in heavy storms, it is possible to experience slight leaking. We also would have preferred a second door.<\/p><p>For mild summer conditions, though, the Copper Canyon 4 is a winner for family camping. It offers plenty of standing room and is a decent value to boot. We were also pleased with how easily it packed back into the storage bag.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<hr class=\"product-block__break\"><\/hr>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div><!-- end footer

And while those poles are aluminum and an upgrade from our budget pick, the Kelty Discovery Basecamp, they are pre-attached to the tent \u2014 good in theory, but in practice was a bit fussy to manage. <\/p><p>The tent fly is, as promised, quite dark, and it is pretty easy to get situated on the tent itself. This is, however, one of the more skimpy coverage flies in our review (only the toupee-style fly of the Eureka Copper Canyon LX is smaller), and only comes down to about half the height of the tent walls. And while the brow pole does a good job of covering the door from rain from above, it was no match for wind-driven rain in our testing.<\/p><p>Campgrounds these days can be pretty crowded, and if you end up next to the all-night ragers, it can be tough to get some shut-eye with other tents. That&#8217;s where we think the Skydome Darkroom shines, even despite the shortcomings. Stuffing the tent away isn&#8217;t the easiest \u2014 we cycled through multiple campers before concluding that the tent wasn&#8217;t going back into the bag quietly \u2014 but it can be made to work.<\/p><p>Available in 4-, 6-, and even an 8-person size, the Skydome Darkroom Tent was made for weekends at the campground. <\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<hr class=\"product-block__break\"><\/hr>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div><!-- end footer -->\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"chart\">Camping Tent Comparison Chart<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><thead><tr><th>Camping Tent<\/th><th>Price<\/th><th>Floor Area<\/th><th>Weight<\/th><th>Height<\/th><th>Number of Doors<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td><a href=\"https:\/\/rei.pxf.io\/c\/381569\/1448521\/17195?tt=cl&amp;mi&amp;pw=7185&amp;subId1=gjbgoutdoorcampingtents|xid:fr1711579288491bdh&amp;u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.rei.com%2Fproduct%2F227904%2Frei-co-op-base-camp-6-tent\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">REI Co-op Base Camp 6<\/a><\/td><td>$549<\/td><td>84 sq. ft.

Camping tents come in all different shapes, sizes, and qualities, and while many are winners, we&#8217;ve run into a few clunkers in our time. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All of our outdoor addicts know that not only do you need something sturdy and reliable, but it also needs to be set up easily and packed well. We went to the internet for a deep dive into the research. After hours of research, we narrowed it down to the top tents for a head-to-head test. This involved lots of camping and various testers, and to date, our estimated time testing numbers are in the hundreds of hours.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We camped through quintessential Colorado spring weekends, complete with sun, snow, sleet, and gale-force winds. We enjoyed hot summer nights, a few surprise thunderstorms, and plenty of regular ol&#8217; campground outings from Moab, Utah, to the hills of North Georgia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignfull size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/images.gearjunkie.com\/uploads\/2023\/07\/DSC8737.jpeg\"><img data-dominant-color=\"8b637c\" data-has-transparency=\"false\" style=\"--dominant-color: #8b637c;\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"700\" height=\"467\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml,&lt;svg xmlns=&quot;http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg&quot; viewBox=&quot;0 0 700 467&quot;&gt;&lt;\/svg&gt;\" data-src=\"https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/images.gearjunkie.com\/uploads\/2023\/07\/DSC8737-700x467.jpeg\" alt=\"MSR Habiscape Camping Tent Interior View\" class=\"lazyload not-transparent wp-image-264593\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/images.gearjunkie.com\/uploads\/2023\/07\/DSC8737-700x467.jpeg 700w, https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/images.gearjunkie.com\/uploads\/2023\/07\/DSC8737-300x200.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/images.gearjunkie.com\/uploads\/2023\/07\/DSC8737-768x512.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/images.gearjunkie.com\/uploads\/2023\/07\/DSC8737-1536x1024.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/images.gearjunkie.com\/uploads\/2023\/07\/DSC8737-720x480.jpeg 720w, https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/images.gearjunkie.com\/uploads\/2023\/07\/DSC8737.jpeg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><noscript><img data-dominant-color=\"8b637c\" data-has-transparency=\"false\" style=\"--dominant-color: #8b637c;\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"700\" height=\"467\" src=\"https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/images.gearjunkie.com\/uploads\/2023\/07\/DSC8737-700x467.jpeg\" alt=\"MSR Habiscape Camping Tent Interior View\" class=\"lazyload not-transparent wp-image-264593\" srcset=\"https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/images.gearjunkie.com\/uploads\/2023\/07\/DSC8737-700x467.jpeg 700w, https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/images.gearjunkie.com\/uploads\/2023\/07\/DSC8737-300x200.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/images.gearjunkie.com\/uploads\/2023\/07\/DSC8737-768x512.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/images.gearjunkie.com\/uploads\/2023\/07\/DSC8737-1536x1024.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/images.gearjunkie.com\/uploads\/2023\/07\/DSC8737-720x480.jpeg 720w, https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/images.gearjunkie.com\/uploads\/2023\/07\/DSC8737.jpeg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><\/noscript><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Our primary testing is using these camping tents as they&#8217;re meant to be used, and we cycle through testers to get the full picture; (photo\/Nick Belcaster)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-our-testing-process-and-testing-grounds\">Our Testing Process and Testing Grounds<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>We start our tent testing with a timed set-up, in which our testers go in totally blind \u2014 no instructions allowed. We&#8217;ve found this to be the ideal challenge of how intuitive a tent&#8217;s structure is. Then, we ensure that these tents are really up to snuff when it comes to capacity ratings, adding in both 20&#8243; and 25&#8243; <a href=\"https:\/\/gearjunkie.com\/camping\/best-camping-mattress\">camping mattresses<\/a> to test manufacturer claims and get a feel for overall roominess.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Finally, we put the tents to the ultimate head-to-head test. Each is erected in the same valley and left for a week. Through rain, sun, and some epic wind, we see which tents can withstand the elements best. When available, we release a pack of our kiddos into the tents to have their way. It&#8217;s hard to put together a better stress test than this.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Our camping tent testing also gets into the nitty-gritty, ground-truthing manufacturer claims and dials in the hard numbers to elevate the winners over the just-alright shelters. To do this, we first measure the total weight of the tent essentials (body, fly, poles, and stakes) on our own scales and compare them against brand numbers. The same goes for packed size, as well as finding out if a tent can easily be packed back into its storage bag (not always an easy task).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Each tent is then left up in a simulated rain shower for 30 minutes at a time and inspected for leaks or wicking water. We use a rotating sprinkler system to ensure that no odd corner of a tent goes untouched, and we pay close attention to window openings and how the rainfly covers the shelter. Rain ingress can be a trip-killer, and we sniff out weak spots in tent construction to identify them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>From our experience and side-by-side testing in both the field and close to home, we crown our winners on a seasonal basis. Every year, we roll out new tent options, and our testing never stops \u2014 rest assured that we&#8217;re considering the latest and greatest in our Buyer&#8217;s Guide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignfull size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/images.gearjunkie.com\/uploads\/2024\/08\/DSC08458.jpg\"><img data-dominant-color=\"565f4e\" data-has-transparency=\"false\" style=\"--dominant-color: #565f4e;\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"2000\" height=\"1333\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml,&lt;svg xmlns=&quot;http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg&quot; viewBox=&quot;0 0 2000 1333&quot;&gt;&lt;\/svg&gt;\" data-src=\"https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/images.gearjunkie.com\/uploads\/2024\/08\/DSC08458.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"lazyload not-transparent wp-image-445669\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/images.gearjunkie.com\/uploads\/2024\/08\/DSC08458.jpg 2000w, https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/images.gearjunkie.com\/uploads\/2024\/08\/DSC08458-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/images.gearjunkie.com\/uploads\/2024\/08\/DSC08458-700x467.jpg 700w, https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/images.gearjunkie.com\/uploads\/2024\/08\/DSC08458-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/images.gearjunkie.com\/uploads\/2024\/08\/DSC08458-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/images.gearjunkie.com\/uploads\/2024\/08\/DSC08458-800x533.jpg 800w, https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/images.gearjunkie.com\/uploads\/2024\/08\/DSC08458-720x480.jpg 720w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2000px) 100vw, 2000px\" \/><noscript><img data-dominant-color=\"565f4e\" data-has-transparency=\"false\" style=\"--dominant-color: #565f4e;\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"2000\" height=\"1333\" src=\"https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/images.gearjunkie.com\/uploads\/2024\/08\/DSC08458.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"lazyload not-transparent wp-image-445669\" srcset=\"https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/images.gearjunkie.com\/uploads\/2024\/08\/DSC08458.jpg 2000w, https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/images.gearjunkie.com\/uploads\/2024\/08\/DSC08458-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/images.gearjunkie.com\/uploads\/2024\/08\/DSC08458-700x467.jpg 700w, https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/images.gearjunkie.com\/uploads\/2024\/08\/DSC08458-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/images.gearjunkie.com\/uploads\/2024\/08\/DSC08458-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/images.gearjunkie.com\/uploads\/2024\/08\/DSC08458-800x533.jpg 800w, https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/images.gearjunkie.com\/uploads\/2024\/08\/DSC08458-720x480.jpg 720w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2000px) 100vw, 2000px\" \/><\/noscript><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Timed set-ups are a great way to figure out just how complicated a tent is going to be in the long haul; (photo\/Nick Belcaster)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-our-expert-testers\">Our Expert Testers<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Guide author <a href=\"https:\/\/gearjunkie.com\/author\/mallory\">Mallory Paige<\/a> has spent <a href=\"https:\/\/gearjunkie.com\/camping\/camping-gear-motorcycle-road-trip\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>hundreds of nights sleeping under the stars<\/strong><\/a>, and she knows firsthand the importance of a good shelter.

(photo\/Eric Phillips)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"guide\">Buyer&#8217;s Guide: How to Choose a Camping Tent<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>To help you decide what tent is best for you, we considered five categories: weather resistance, comfort, ease of setup, extra features, and value. Each of these is more important to certain campers than others. Consider when, where, and with whom you plan to use your tent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We have another guide for the<a href=\"https:\/\/gearjunkie.com\/camping\/tents\/best-backpacking-tents\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong> Best Backpacking Tents<\/strong><\/a> that focuses on lighter and less bulky tents for your backcountry adventures, as well as a primer article on the <a href=\"https:\/\/gearjunkie.com\/outdoor\/how-to-choose-a-tent\">Basics of Camping and Backpacking Tents<\/a>. Here, we focus more on car and family camping tents for adventures where the car is within reach and the weight of a tent is less important. If you like the appeal of leaving your tent pre-rigged wherever you may roam, the ease of a <a href=\"https:\/\/gearjunkie.com\/camping\/best-rooftop-tents\">Rooftop Tent<\/a> might be up your alley.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-camping-tent-breakdown\">Camping Tent Breakdown<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Ready to set up camp? Here&#8217;s the lowdown on what makes a good camping tent, and what we think are important features you shouldn&#8217;t miss out on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-tent-body\">Tent Body<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Think of the tent body as your four walls at home. Most frequently, the tent body works in tandem with a rainfly to protect campers from adverse weather (although we often tuck it away for some star gazing). Tent bodies, on the other hand, provide protection from both the ground below and from flying insects through a mix of windows and mesh panels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Of course, tents that incorporate a larger amount of mesh will be more ventilated and better suited to summertime camping when conditions are fair and breezes are frequent. Alternatively, designs with solid panels block cold breezes better and can be camped in further into the shoulder seasons. Zippered windows can be a great compromise and can be opened or closed based on conditions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The bathtub floor of your tent is the ground floor of your setup. It will sport raised sides to protect your living space from creeping water. These floors are frequently made of a tougher material than the rest of the tent to safeguard against wear and tear. If you&#8217;re camping frequently (or camp where spiny plants thrive), using a tent groundsheet or tarp can extend the life of your investment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignfull size-large\"><img data-dominant-color=\"cfa357\" data-has-transparency=\"false\" style=\"--dominant-color: #cfa357;\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"700\" height=\"467\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml,&lt;svg xmlns=&quot;http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg&quot; viewBox=&quot;0 0 700 467&quot;&gt;&lt;\/svg&gt;\" data-src=\"https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/images.gearjunkie.com\/uploads\/2025\/03\/MeghanLaHatte-BaseCampTentConnector-10-700x467.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"lazyload not-transparent wp-image-530848\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/images.gearjunkie.com\/uploads\/2025\/03\/MeghanLaHatte-BaseCampTentConnector-10-700x467.jpg 700w, https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/images.gearjunkie.com\/uploads\/2025\/03\/MeghanLaHatte-BaseCampTentConnector-10-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/images.gearjunkie.com\/uploads\/2025\/03\/MeghanLaHatte-BaseCampTentConnector-10-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/images.gearjunkie.com\/uploads\/2025\/03\/MeghanLaHatte-BaseCampTentConnector-10-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/images.gearjunkie.com\/uploads\/2025\/03\/MeghanLaHatte-BaseCampTentConnector-10-800x533.jpg 800w, https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/images.gearjunkie.com\/uploads\/2025\/03\/MeghanLaHatte-BaseCampTentConnector-10-720x480.jpg 720w, https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/images.gearjunkie.com\/uploads\/2025\/03\/MeghanLaHatte-BaseCampTentConnector-10.jpg 2000w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><noscript><img data-dominant-color=\"cfa357\" data-has-transparency=\"false\" style=\"--dominant-color: #cfa357;\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"700\" height=\"467\" src=\"https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/images.gearjunkie.com\/uploads\/2025\/03\/MeghanLaHatte-BaseCampTentConnector-10-700x467.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"lazyload not-transparent wp-image-530848\" srcset=\"https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/images.gearjunkie.com\/uploads\/2025\/03\/MeghanLaHatte-BaseCampTentConnector-10-700x467.jpg 700w, https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/images.gearjunkie.com\/uploads\/2025\/03\/MeghanLaHatte-BaseCampTentConnector-10-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/images.gearjunkie.com\/uploads\/2025\/03\/MeghanLaHatte-BaseCampTentConnector-10-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/images.gearjunkie.com\/uploads\/2025\/03\/MeghanLaHatte-BaseCampTentConnector-10-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/images.gearjunkie.com\/uploads\/2025\/03\/MeghanLaHatte-BaseCampTentConnector-10-800x533.jpg 800w, https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/images.gearjunkie.com\/uploads\/2025\/03\/MeghanLaHatte-BaseCampTentConnector-10-720x480.jpg 720w, https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/images.gearjunkie.com\/uploads\/2025\/03\/MeghanLaHatte-BaseCampTentConnector-10.jpg 2000w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><\/noscript><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">The body of the tent is the four walls of your home away from home; (photo\/Meghan LaHatte)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-rainfly\">Rainfly<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The next step in getting your camping tent up and rolling will be securing the rainfly.

It will come packed away in a stuff sack that should carry all of the essentials to get you set up. Thankfully, many tent manufacturers have moved away from the true &#8216;stuff sack&#8217; style storage bag and instead now offer zippered or wide-mouth-style bags that open wide to pack the tent inside. The wide bag that the Wawona packs into is easy to fill, but some aren&#8217;t as nice to use, and even our top pick, the REI Base Camp, had points deducted for its old-school stuff sack style bags.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignfull size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/s3.amazonaws.com\/images.gearjunkie.com\/uploads\/2022\/04\/DSC1125.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\"

id=\"h-weather-resistance-and-ventilation\"><strong>Weather Resistance<\/strong> and Ventilation<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If you plan to camp during storms, it&#8217;s worth it to save up and buy a sturdier tent. Premium tents have stronger poles, full rain covers, and sealed seams. It&#8217;s things like this that seem less important \u2014 until you find yourself riding out an epic storm from the confines of your tent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While testing, we experienced a major thunderstorm complete with high winds and heavy rain. Each of the tents had been properly staked out, but many of them experienced damage. The <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/backcountry.tnu8.net\/c\/381569\/358742\/5311?subId1=gjbgoutdoorcampingtents&amp;u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.backcountry.com%2Fmarmot-limestone-tent-6-person-3-season&amp;subId3=xid:fr1732719039020jih\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Marmot Limestone 4P<\/a><\/strong> performed incredibly well, with no leaking or broken poles.

We place a high value on windows that can be opened from the interior of the tent, such as those on the NEMO Aurora Highrise. Some rainflys will also incorporate rigid stays, such as seen in the North Face Wawona, which holds open a ventilation port when the weather is good, and can be closed when storms brew.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignfull size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/images.gearjunkie.com\/uploads\/2025\/06\/DSC01456.jpg\"><img data-dominant-color=\"686050\" data-has-transparency=\"false\" style=\"--dominant-color: #686050;\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"2000\" height=\"1333\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml,&lt;svg xmlns=&quot;http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg&quot; viewBox=&quot;0 0 2000 1333&quot;&gt;&lt;\/svg&gt;\" data-src=\"https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/images.gearjunkie.com\/uploads\/2025\/06\/DSC01456.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"lazyload not-transparent wp-image-583316\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/images.gearjunkie.com\/uploads\/2025\/06\/DSC01456.jpg 2000w, https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/images.gearjunkie.com\/uploads\/2025\/06\/DSC01456-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/images.gearjunkie.com\/uploads\/2025\/06\/DSC01456-700x467.jpg 700w, https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/images.gearjunkie.com\/uploads\/2025\/06\/DSC01456-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/images.gearjunkie.com\/uploads\/2025\/06\/DSC01456-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/images.gearjunkie.com\/uploads\/2025\/06\/DSC01456-800x533.jpg 800w, https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/images.gearjunkie.com\/uploads\/2025\/06\/DSC01456-720x480.jpg 720w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2000px) 100vw, 2000px\" \/><noscript><img data-dominant-color=\"686050\" data-has-transparency=\"false\" style=\"--dominant-color: #686050;\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"2000\" height=\"1333\" src=\"https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/images.gearjunkie.com\/uploads\/2025\/06\/DSC01456.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"lazyload not-transparent wp-image-583316\" srcset=\"https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/images.gearjunkie.com\/uploads\/2025\/06\/DSC01456.jpg 2000w, https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/images.gearjunkie.com\/uploads\/2025\/06\/DSC01456-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/images.gearjunkie.com\/uploads\/2025\/06\/DSC01456-700x467.jpg 700w, https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/images.gearjunkie.com\/uploads\/2025\/06\/DSC01456-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/images.gearjunkie.com\/uploads\/2025\/06\/DSC01456-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/images.gearjunkie.com\/uploads\/2025\/06\/DSC01456-800x533.jpg 800w, https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/images.gearjunkie.com\/uploads\/2025\/06\/DSC01456-720x480.jpg 720w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2000px) 100vw, 2000px\" \/><\/noscript><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">The rear door on The North Face Wawona isn&#8217;t entirely covered by the rainfly, but it does use a waterproof zipper and cover to ensure it stays dry; (photo\/Nick Belcaster)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-seasonality-ratings\">Seasonality Ratings<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Often, manufacturers refer to its tents with a season rating, which helps convey the types of conditions for which they&#8217;ve been designed. While not a hard and fast rule, knowing where you are planning on camping, the weather you may encounter, and what your tent is rated for can greatly hedge your bets against spending a night in a flattened tent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li><strong>3-Season Tents:<\/strong> 3-season tents (meaning spring, summer, and fall) are your lightest-duty tents, and will employ lightweight materials in order to keep overall bulk down, as well as improve ventilation. Typically, the tent body will be nearly or entirely mesh and mated to a bathtub floor. These designs are less aerodynamic and more prone to bending under gusts of wind. Finally, most 3-season tents will use a rainfly that isn&#8217;t full coverage, and may only extend over windows and doors, instead of all the way to the ground. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>3\/4-Season Tents:<\/strong> Bulking up on weather resistance, 3\/4 or 3.5-season tents are similar to 3-season tents material-wise, but in design, they often are more weather-ready, usually employing dome shapes. Rain flies will also go all the way to the ground, forming vestibules where you might store your backpacks during an overnight rain.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>4-Season Tents:<\/strong> This is the realm of winter, mountaineering, and hunting tents, where weather resistance is in high demand and a tough structure is needed. <a href=\"https:\/\/gearjunkie.com\/camping\/best-4-season-tent\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>Four-season tents<\/strong><\/a> are almost exclusively double-wall designs, and often shaped in domes or tunnels to better survive the wind. They will also sport many guylines to adequately support the tent, and thicker tent poles and materials to resist wind-driven rain and snow.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignfull size-large\"><img data-dominant-color=\"858989\" data-has-transparency=\"false\" style=\"--dominant-color: #858989;\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"700\" height=\"467\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml,&lt;svg xmlns=&quot;http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg&quot; viewBox=&quot;0 0 700 467&quot;&gt;&lt;\/svg&gt;\" data-src=\"https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/images.gearjunkie.com\/uploads\/2025\/04\/Untitled-21-700x467.jpg\" alt=\"Half Dome 2 Plus 45th Anniversary Edition Tent\" class=\"lazyload not-transparent wp-image-550064\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/images.gearjunkie.com\/uploads\/2025\/04\/Untitled-21-700x467.jpg 700w, https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/images.gearjunkie.com\/uploads\/2025\/04\/Untitled-21-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/images.gearjunkie.com\/uploads\/2025\/04\/Untitled-21-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/images.gearjunkie.com\/uploads\/2025\/04\/Untitled-21-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/images.gearjunkie.com\/uploads\/2025\/04\/Untitled-21-800x533.jpg 800w, https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/images.gearjunkie.com\/uploads\/2025\/04\/Untitled-21-720x480.jpg 720w, https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/images.gearjunkie.com\/uploads\/2025\/04\/Untitled-21.jpg 1800w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><noscript><img data-dominant-color=\"858989\" data-has-transparency=\"false\" style=\"--dominant-color: #858989;\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"700\" height=\"467\" src=\"https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/images.gearjunkie.com\/uploads\/2025\/04\/Untitled-21-700x467.jpg\" alt=\"Half Dome 2 Plus 45th Anniversary Edition Tent\" class=\"lazyload not-transparent wp-image-550064\" srcset=\"https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/images.gearjunkie.com\/uploads\/2025\/04\/Untitled-21-700x467.jpg 700w, https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/images.gearjunkie.com\/uploads\/2025\/04\/Untitled-21-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/images.gearjunkie.com\/uploads\/2025\/04\/Untitled-21-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/images.gearjunkie.com\/uploads\/2025\/04\/Untitled-21-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/images.gearjunkie.com\/uploads\/2025\/04\/Untitled-21-800x533.jpg 800w, https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/images.gearjunkie.com\/uploads\/2025\/04\/Untitled-21-720x480.jpg 720w, https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/images.gearjunkie.com\/uploads\/2025\/04\/Untitled-21.jpg 1800w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><\/noscript><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">The classic dome-style structure of the REI Half Dome 2+ makes it easy to setup, and better suited to poor weather; (photo\/Will Brendza)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-capacity-and-floor-area\">Capacity and Floor Area<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Every tent worth its salt today will provide a capacity number for the number of campers it was designed to sleep. Many tent models are also available in multiple versions, with 4, 6, and 8-person capacities being the most common for camping tents. This number is derived from the number of regular sleeping mattresses that can be laid side-by-side in the sleeping area, but take note: this often only accommodates 20-inch sleeping pads.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The floor area number will also give you a good idea of the sleeping area space in any one tent, and is generally given in square feet. For 4-person tents, this typically comes in at around 60 sq. ft. For example, the <a href=\"https:\/\/backcountry.tnu8.net\/c\/381569\/358742\/5311?subId1=gjbgoutdoorcampingtents&amp;u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.backcountry.com%2Fmarmot-limestone-tent-6-person-3-season&amp;subId3=xid:fr1732719039020jih\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Marmot Limestone 4-Person Tent<\/a> slides in squarely at 60, while the more comfort-minded Mountain Hardwear Bridger 4 squeezes in a bit more at 62.5.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When it comes to 6-person models, the number jumps up to around 85 square feet, with the REI Co-op Base Camp 6 being the standard-bearer at 84 square feet, and the budget Kelty Discovery Element 6 surprisingly besting it at 89! It&#8217;s important to note here that the Kelty tent has less steep walls, and thus floor area isn&#8217;t the end-all when it comes to understanding overall livability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignfull size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/images.gearjunkie.com\/uploads\/2023\/03\/DSC7775.jpg\"><img data-dominant-color=\"197bb1\" data-has-transparency=\"false\" style=\"--dominant-color: #197bb1;\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"700\" height=\"468\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml,&lt;svg xmlns=&quot;http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg&quot; viewBox=&quot;0 0 700 468&quot;&gt;&lt;\/svg&gt;\" data-src=\"https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/images.gearjunkie.com\/uploads\/2023\/03\/DSC7775-700x468.jpg\" alt=\"Campers Inside the NEMO Aurora Highrise Camping Tent\" class=\"lazyload not-transparent wp-image-212724\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/images.gearjunkie.com\/uploads\/2023\/03\/DSC7775-700x468.jpg 700w, https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/images.gearjunkie.com\/uploads\/2023\/03\/DSC7775-300x201.jpg 300w, https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/images.gearjunkie.com\/uploads\/2023\/03\/DSC7775-768x513.jpg 768w, https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/images.gearjunkie.com\/uploads\/2023\/03\/DSC7775-1536x1027.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/images.gearjunkie.com\/uploads\/2023\/03\/DSC7775-720x480.jpg 720w, https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/images.gearjunkie.com\/uploads\/2023\/03\/DSC7775.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><noscript><img data-dominant-color=\"197bb1\" data-has-transparency=\"false\" style=\"--dominant-color: #197bb1;\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"700\" height=\"468\" src=\"https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/images.gearjunkie.com\/uploads\/2023\/03\/DSC7775-700x468.jpg\" alt=\"Campers Inside the NEMO Aurora Highrise Camping Tent\" class=\"lazyload not-transparent wp-image-212724\" srcset=\"https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/images.gearjunkie.com\/uploads\/2023\/03\/DSC7775-700x468.jpg 700w, https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/images.gearjunkie.com\/uploads\/2023\/03\/DSC7775-300x201.jpg 300w, https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/images.gearjunkie.com\/uploads\/2023\/03\/DSC7775-768x513.jpg 768w, https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/images.gearjunkie.com\/uploads\/2023\/03\/DSC7775-1536x1027.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/images.gearjunkie.com\/uploads\/2023\/03\/DSC7775-720x480.jpg 720w, https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/images.gearjunkie.com\/uploads\/2023\/03\/DSC7775.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><\/noscript><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">The NEMO Aurora Highrise is a four-person tent, but be mindful that larger camping pads can eat into that space; (photo\/Nick Belcaster)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-construction-materials\"><strong>Construction Materials<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The weather resistance of a tent depends largely on the materials from which it is constructed. Nylon and polyester are very common materials used in car camping tents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Nylon<\/strong> is stronger, more resistant to abrasion, and can stretch considerably. Unfortunately, it absorbs water, causing your tent to sag in storms or high humidity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Polyester<\/strong> has less stretch than nylon, so it is more likely to tear. This rigidity is a benefit in wet conditions because it will sag less and absorb less water, but it also makes polyester more fragile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignfull

Considerations and Taking Care of Your Tent<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>First and foremost, never put your tent away wet. Remember when we mentioned hydrolysis earlier regarding PU coatings? Water is a major culprit in speeding up that process. Fungi, molds, and mildews love to grow in your dark closet, on your wet tent, at room temperature. These organisms destroy the fibers of your tent and make it smell terrible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When you get home, set your tent back up and let it air out. This simple chore will pay off later when you are still able to use your tent. If you have no yard or nowhere dry to set it up, your living room makes a great space for this. Check all the seams, especially the floor and fly, before packing it away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignfull size-large\"><a

bigger purchases when putting together a good summer kit, so it&#8217;s important to know what you&#8217;re getting for those dollar signs. With a range from just north of a hundo to more than a grand, there&#8217;s a lot of territory to cover, and most of it will come down to three important metrics: the number of people the tent will sleep, the weather protection it provides, and the amount of accessories tucked away inside.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-budget\">Budget<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Camping is for everyone, and if you&#8217;ve only got a few frontcountry forays on the books for the summer, going to something with a little lower overhead can make a lot of sense. Budget camping tents are generally offered beginning at the $100 mark, and head up to around $200 from there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A tent like the <a href=\"https:\/\/rei.pxf.io\/c\/381569\/1448521\/17195?tt=cl&amp;mi&amp;pw=7185&amp;u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.rei.com%2Fproduct%2F202471%2Fkelty-discovery-basecamp-4-tent&amp;subId1=gjbgoutdoorcampingtents\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Kelty Discovery Basecamp 4<\/a> ($120) is a fine example.
