We have a pop-up, which is great for tooling around locally, but after a few out west trips it's suffering from a few lost parts in south Dakota, and wear and tear. They tend to do that. last summer we put all our camping stuff in a small trailer and stayed in Koa camping cabins. It was a little expensive, but we were in bear country and we felt protected, and it was easier to haul than the pop-up, and easier to set up camp. We have been camping long enough to have a pretty good routine set up to "move in" to a camp site.
