They can be more than cook tents.  I ran across a camp in the Lewis unit a few year ago and they had set up an actual living room set up in one and had their grandpa all set up just like home.  Wood stove and all.

got it set up today with dad and i think its going to work just fine for a cook tent/guest tent/eating tent/.
very easy to set up and the frame work is very beefy.
wouldn't want to get too much snow on it though but for the price and what we want it for i think its gonna be perfect.

if you want the piece of mind when it comes to snow, you can buy a heavy duty construction tarp to cover the whole thing and then some as long as you stake it down from each grommet then the snow wont cave it in on you, thats what i use anyways
my grandpa always said "if it aint broke dont fix it"

yeah i hear that.
we put it up last week and didnt stake it down....whoops wouldn't you know it we got wind that night and it flipped it over and put two small holes in our new cook tent.  :bash: :bash: :bash:  we got repair kits and all will be just fine, but i agree fully.  Make sure you stake these bad boys down if there is any any chance of wind or snow.

you can buy an actual stove jack made for canvas or heavy duty tarps go to bravo tents.com they have them for around 30 bucks and you can sew it right in where you want it
