Hard walls provide significantly better insulation, soundproofing, and durability compared to canvas-sided pop-ups. At 1,885 lbs, it's much lighter than a fixed-wall hardside while giving you real walls. Built-in furnace makes cold-weather camping practical. 2-burner kitchen with sink for real meal prep. Northstar Campers builds in Cedar Falls, IA.
