Do any of y’all use em the lease. I’m looking for a cheaper housing remedy at our property. Are the sleeping decks that hang out over the side waterproof? Just doesn’t seem secure to me. What’s yalls experience with em?

I used one for a while at the lease. I collapsed it down every time I left and re-opened it when needed (only takes 5 or 10 minutes). I had no problems at all with it.
Mine was not equipped with A/C like many are, so it was not suitable for hot weather. A small heater would keep it warm inside on even very cold days.
They are really ideal if you are moving around, as opposed to stationary. They are so much easier to pull and maneuver than a full-size camper.

I had one. One of those off road ones with the rack on the front for a 4wheeler. Loved it, and I should have never sold it, but we went bigger thanks to adding two members to our family.
I will buy another one. Yes they are waterproof. Our's had AC and heat, and both worked well, but on cold days, the heater was always going, on hot days, AC was always blowing, and it was noisy. It would have been an epic elk hunting rig. Like I said, I never should have sold it.

Hard shells gonna be a lot more expensive, but yes they will be better. In 1996 me and my father in law went hunting on a day lease. It was on the Salt Fork of the Red River I believe. Anyway, we brought along his Jayco pop up to sleep in.
It dropped to 17 degrees that night. I asked him when he was gonna kick the heater on. He informed he that he hadn’t brought a heater. We had a bucket of water to wash our faces in. When the alarm went off the bucket of water was froze, there was ice crystals on the inside of the sleeping areas. So yes. It was colder than a well diggers arse in that camper.
