I bought an Easy-Up canopy at Academy Sports, and on the shelf next to it was a Timber Creek side tent (made to attach to the Easy-Up).113089 At $49 and $20 respectively, you can't go wrong. I used the side-tent once, on a rainy outing, and it worked great. It took about 10 minutes to assemble, but it has a floor sewn in (a key feature for my wife), so I bought it for her to use (if ever). For my own use, I plan to get something like this one,

Little Guy has a new 5x7 screen room with roll up panels that attaches to your door using a special rubber molding that is easy to install. It has a bathtub floor and cinches tightly around your door. I love mine. www.golittleguy.com. (It's made by Paha Que and has Little Guy's name on it.)

We are using an Arb2500 awning and arb side tent on our new camper. Our old one just uses an easy up with a side wall. We have already used the Arb side tent and am surprised at how big it is.

We use two Kelty Car Tarps for the sides and a custom made Pahaque rear tarp for the rear. These all attach using Kedar rail on the top.
