Perks
The tent is very large and ventilates well. The permanent waterproofing means that you never have to scramble with a rain fly. The waterproof floor and tent combine for a very reliable tent in heavy weather, making this an excellent tent for off-season camping or for using in rainier environments. The No-See-Um mesh offers both bug protection and a degree of privacy.
Sacrifices
The tent's awnings tend to collect water, both rain and dew, which can strain the seams of the tent. For a comparable size tent, the Cabela cabin tents are substantially heavier than average.
Bottom Line
Well waterproofed, roomy, and reliable, this large cabin tent, unlike many of its counterparts, can really stand up to unpleasant weather when necessary. It is an ideal tent for large groups of people who use campgrounds or RV camps even when the weather isn't perfect.
