We bought a pop-up a couple years ago and love it! We only get to go camping maybe twice a year. It is perfect for us right now. We are learning more each time we go. It is cramped when the grands, DD's, SIL and BF go. We are taking a tent and cot next time. LOL!! The beds aren't the greatest but we are getting foam pad to go on them next year.
Tents aren't so bad. They have some really nice ones now. Get an Areobed and you would never know that you aren't on a real mattress.
In a few years, we plan on getting a 5th wheel. Hopefully by then we can spend a month or more camping.
