Most of our camping is done in a seasonal TENT site on one of the Finger Lakes in western New York State. RV's are not allowed on these sites. There is electricity and water but no sewer. We use a bathhouse that is a short walk away for bathroom and shower facilities. Aside from that one inconvenience everything is luxury camping. I've put together a google photo album.

Is that a new Paha Que sleeping tent in your photos and how do you like it?
This summer we'll be camping on Indian Lake and the Saranacs. Been awhile since I camped up that way and I'm really looking forward to introducing the area to the man and grand kiddo.

Yes! Paha Que was new last year. They make quality stuff, and I like it a lot. As you can probably tell from the photos, we had a canvas Eureka cabin tent previously. Nothing could beat those, but to replace it with something similar now would cost a fortune. The Paha is much smaller, but it's big enough for the two of us.

Glad to see a thumb's up! I've owned the large PQ screen house for a bit of time (love it) and am toying with the idea of getting a small sleeping tent from the company in part based on the quality construction of my screen tent.

What size PQ did you get for the 2 of you if you don't mind saying? I need a tent that fits Fire Island National Seashore and my current tent does not.

Pretty sure it's 12x10.

It's just Mrs. SpeakEasy and me now (empty-nesters). But we can choose from among 7 grandchildren to drag along with us!

Yes, I agree your post is me helpful but it is better not to be carried away by prices and spend time choosing a quality tent. Think about the type of camping you are going to do and buy the store that best suits your needs, think that your store will be your home in these days of adventure visit this site ***Link Removed***

Even though we have an RV, we still tent camp sometimes. There are just places it's not easy or impossible to get an RV to.

My wife and I found a solution for this here: http://www.utvguide.net/hi-standard-outfitters-launches-2017-ghost-m1-tactical-off-road-utv-towable-camper/

Its a 400 lb. pop up camper that you can pull with your quad or UTV to get back in those remote places, but still get to camp off the ground. You don't have all the luxuries of an RV but it tows easily and has plenty of storage options for a night or 2 worth of gear and food.

We used it in Box Canyon, AZ a few weekends ago and loved it.

That looks like the old Apache tent trailers. We saw one a couple of years ago in a campground, it was in great shape.
