I haven't regularly gone camping or hunting in nearly 10 years. Now that I'm fairly settled in life and have the time, money and connections to go hunting and camping again, I need to build a camping setup from scratch. My dad's friends used to go elk hunting as a group in northern Arizona and had a wonderful setup with canvas wall tents. They had tents for each group of people, plus a kitchen tent, outhouse tent, etc. I'd get this type of tent, and be able to expand to a setup like this in the future. I am considering out of state options for elk hunting in the future, such as Colorado, Wyoming, Utah, etc. So being able to adapt this to cold weather would be nice. Short term would be general camping and deer hunting in conditions that won't be that cold (say lows in the high 20s).
I've been thinking about getting a 10x12 tent from Davis.
https://www.davistent.com/product/canvas-wall-tents/ I've laid out how large this tent would be, and it seems more than sufficient for two people in a single cot, a stove, some dry storage, and could potentially be big enough to keep the kitchen (just a small table with a two burner propane stove) indoors. Does this seem like overkill? Things like this are where I prefer to buy once and cry once.
How comfortable are these kinds of tents in the summer? I've only experienced them in the winter time.
I could also use advice on a good propane stove. Should I just get the $50 Coleman that my dad and I used when I was a kid, or should I consider something better? I'd rather get something good than be cheap.
