Camping with the whole family is such a fun and adventurous experience. However, a little family might have some concerns over sleeping arrangements in the great outdoors. Luckily, we've gathered up the best 5-person tents out there so mom, dad, and the kids can sleep comfortably all under the same "roof".
The best tent is the Coleman Sundome because it features a lot of room inside, is easy to set up and takedown, is lightweight for easy carrying and is offered at a decent price point. The inverted seams and rainfly keep water outside the tent. There is an electrical port, storage pockets, and both large windows and small ground vents for airflow.
This 6-person tent is lightweight - only 17 pounds - which makes it easy to pack up and bring along on your overnighter. It’s made with oxford fabric and coated with silicone to make it waterproof while the rainfly keeps water away from the tent and from getting inside. It has a single door that doubles as a window with a mesh covering to keep bugs out and allow airflow.
The extended design of this dome tent is large enough to hold up to nine people, or three queen air mattresses. For a party of five that gives you a lot of room to spread out and store your gear. It has several storage pockets inside, plus a gear loft overhead. There is a designated lantern hook and an electrical port that closes and is concealed when not in use.
This cabin-style tent has a center height of just under six feet, which is taller than most done tents. It has space to hold a queen airbed and other camping gear, or six bedrolls. There are gear pockets throughout the inside of this tent and a gear loft. It also has a mud mat to help keep dirt and grime out.
This 5-person tent only uses two poles to popup and set up. The polyester material it is made from is waterproof but also blocks UV rays. It is really lightweight and easy to carry along while hiking. It has both storage pockets and a gear loft, plus two doorways and two windows for airflow.
Everyone can stand straight up inside the Vidalido dome tent because its center is 7.9 feet high. The door extends to create a shaded porch area while its side has a steep slope to keep water from getting into the tent. The doors and windows are all very large to allow adequate airflow.
Which tent is right for you?
For quick camping or hiking trips, the Coleman Sundome Tent works for most everyone. It is easy to set up, has inverted seams to keep water out and has enough space to hold six adults comfortably. It comes with a carrying case that makes it easy to carry around between campsites.
