My sister, her kids and I are driving from AZ to Anaheim to go to Disneyland but we don't have the money to stay in a hotel and we don't have an RV. Where is the best place to go tent camping in Anaheim/surrounding LA area?

Answer
Actual Tent Camping is going to really be limited to just a few State Beaches/Park. The closest is Crystal Cove in Newport Beach. The cost is still going to be in the $50/night price range which for just a few dollars more you can get a budget Motel closer to Disneyland.

If you do decide to camp here, they tend to book up 2-6 weeks in advance weeks in advance depending on when you are going. So it is best to book as soon as possible unless you want to hope for a cancellation.

How to find a good tent for camping?

I want a tent to take camping. I'd like to go to the beach, mountains, state parks, etc. One thing I worry about is rain. I've heard you can't get a true waterproof tent for a reasonable price, only water resistant. I don't want to spend $300 on a tent that I may not use that much. I just need enough room for a full size air mattress and to change clothes. Any suggestions? Oh, and it has to be one I can set up by myself.

Answer
Given your stated requirements a small dome or modified dome makes the most sense.

BTW, you don't want a waterproof tent. If you had one, moisture inside (from your body) condenses on the inside, and you wind up having an internal rainstorm.

Water repellency is ok. Ideal you want a tent that breathes. Over it, but not touching it, goes a waterproof fly.

There are a lot of factors that go into choosing the best tent for your needs. You'll find some of them discussed here:
