Grew up camping in a pup tent in the back yard and in an old canvas cabin tent with my dad in the woods during hunting season. I was amazed when dome tents came about and became the proud owner of a ten person dome tent. Loved it and used it for 15 years before I somehow put it up damp and ruined it. Bought a cabin tent for the family a few years later but after getting stuck with a rain storm so bad we gave up on the weekend we bought a pop-up. Still a pain to take down in the rain but much drier during the rain once I found the right option to keep humidity out. Other than a state park, never stayed in a campground until the pop-up. With my country roots, even a state park seemed like the neighbors were too close. I enjoy most campgrounds now.
