Furthermore, this tent is very durable. It is made with high quality polyester material and is thermally sealed so you can make sure that it is not prone to tears and it is waterproof. You can still enjoy the comfort even in rainy nights and snowy afternoons.

One of these glamping tents is the Coleman Prairie Breeze Lighted Cabin Tent which is comfortable enough to house up to nine people inside without feeling crammed. It also has a tall vertical clearance of 10 ft. which is enough height even for the tallest person in the world.

Our Take
There are different things that you need to be excited about the White Duck Outdoors Premium Luxury Avalon Canvas Bell Tent. First of all, this tent is not made with plastic fabric or polyester. Instead, it made with Grade-A premium 10.10 oz, double Fill “Army Duck Canvas” fabric. This fabric is water repellent, UV, mold and mildew resistant yet breathable. That means that this tent is perfect for all weather because it can withstand the summer heat because of the breath-ability of the fabric and it can also be used during rainy days and winters because it is waterproof. Win-win, isn't it?
This is a big tent, truly massive, with a diameter of 16.5 ft, it needs a big space to set up, and once you stake out the sides, it's probably double that. This tent is also heavy, not by comparison to other large canvas tents, but compared to typical synthetic material tents, the difference is considerable but definitely manageable by one person. The whole setup on this tent in fact is quite manageable by one person, as the majority of the 30 minute setup time is spent pounding in stakes. Zipping in the floor and erecting the center pole and door frame takes a total of 5 minutes with time to sip your beer in between.
Heaters and stoves stay nice and toasty in the tent and with quality wood, you can get a solid 6-8 hour burn through the night. Having a stove in the tent also means you can cook inside. In closing, this is a fantastic tent. Easy and quick setup and tear down, quality materials, and a dramatically elevated experience as compared to a traditional tent. This tent is the perfect upgrade for the family looking to take their outdoor living to the next level and above and beyond that, White Duck Outdoors has fantastic customer service, with knowledgeable and helpful staff excited to help you and yours with your next adventure.

Cons

Our Take
If you are looking for a good alternative to canvass tents that are less expensive and more lightweight, then the The Original-Authentic Standing Room Family Cabin Tent might be what you have been searching for. This one is quite large and has plenty of room in it. We can now camp in luxury without having to put half our stuff outside the tent. The floor is a big plus for camping since it will stop snakes from cuddling up next you while you sleep.
While this is not military quality, by any means, it kind does remind you of some of the military tents that your grandpa may have used while he was serving in the army back in the 90s. All in all, it has a very large cabin area with very large entryways, front and back. The windows for ventilation are also large enough to promote air circulation inside. It is also easy for one man to put up and even its floors are of high-quality. Highly recommended!

Pros
- Huge horizontal and vertical space
- Waterproof
- Cheaper than others
Cons
- The dividers are not great quality
- Not durable
- Not always available
Our Take
The Ozark Trail 10-Person 3-Room XL Family Cabin Tent is a very spacious and roomy glamping tent that is perfect for you and your family. You will be able to fit a queen size bed on one end with 2 twins on the other end for the kids. You can also set up a nice 5 ft table in the center for setting our stuff on and keeping things clean. The little mesh bags by the bed for holding phones and stuff you don't want on the ground and the little ring in the middle top is great for hanging your light. The room dividers aren't that great but it creates a bit of privacy between adults and kids. Better than nothing. All in all, this is a great tent especially for a huge group of glampers. Very comfortable!

You can instantly set up a home base with some extra sleeping space with the Coleman Montana 8-person tent.

Pros
- Huge space
- High quality
- Easy to set up
- Very affordable
Cons
- Has ventilation issues
Our Take
The Coleman 8-Person Tent for Camping is one gorgeous clamping tent. Aesthetically, the mint green look exudes glamour and luxury and you can truly feel like you're one thousand bucks when you are inside this tent. But nonetheless, it still has not compromised on the most important aspects that makes a tent a good one. It is very roomy, yet a bit narrow and could have a slight ventilation problem during hotter and more humid days and nights. But overall, it is a solid, high quality tent.
If you have never set up a tent before I can see it being a bit overwhelming at first, but with more than one person, you should be able to get it. If you have set up a tent before, you will be fine with one person. The door is also awesome. With kids running in and out it's great...but you still have to zipper it each time and both kids should be able to handle the zipper door very well and the zipper to handle them well. It's tall so you can stand up in it. There may be better tents out there....but not many at this price.
Ozark Trail 16x16-Feet 12-Person 3 Room Instant Cabin Tent with Pre-Attached Poles

Pros
- High quality
- Huge (can fit up to 12 people)
- Easy to set up
Cons
- Hard to clean
- The poles are not replaceable
Our Take
If you are looking for a glamping tent that you can use party with your friends in, then this one is for you. Not only that this tent is highly durable and made of high-quality materials, it is also very room that can allow eight to 12 people to comfortable stay inside without feeling crammed or squeezed. This is one of the biggest tents in this list and it deserves to be here because it is more awesome than that.
This is an outstanding tent for the money. First, it is a breeze to set up. Set up the first time took about 10-15 minutes. Tear down was about 5-10 and the great thing is that after tearing down now four times I can get it to fit perfectly in the bag every time. The shaded corner is a plus as well, as is the large windows. The learning curve for set up is I think similar to other tents, once you get the hang of it, it's pretty easy. What's the best thing about this tent? In a torrential downpour, severe thunderstorms for hours the tent is still standing with not a drop of rain getting in. I am amazed at the quality of this tent! You should try it to believe it!

Includes tent stakes, carry bag, mud mat, gear pockets and gear loft. Mesh roof and Ground vent guaranteed a much better ventilation compared to normal tents, this also ensured that no water droplets condense inside the tent at night.
Pros
- Different size options
- Easy to set up
- Durable
- Spacious
- Very affordable
Cons
- Doesn't come with stakes
Our Take
The OT QOMOTOP Camping Tent is probably one of the tents in this list that is to be considered the best in terms of ease in set up. The tent prides itself by an instant and fast 60-second set up which can also be done by one person alone. The ads do not lie though, as experience will tel you that it really easy and fast to install. Same with taking it down which only requires minimum efforts for one person.
The poles are very strong, they withstood a super strong wind storm that lasted 2 days up in a high desert. Most tents on our campsite flew away, this one withstood it. I had to secure it with stones otherwise it would be impossible with any tent, but nevertheless the poles didn't bend. It would be perfect if a stake comes with the package to address this issue but stones are okay in doing the job of securing the tent in place. Nevertheless it is a very solid tent and you can even choose the size among a 4-person, 6-person, 8-person, or 10-person capacity. Great buy!
