I am in the tent category. Trying to get the other guys on the property to pitch in and build a bunkhouse but unfortunately I don't see that happening unless I foot the bill.

For it is not the quarry that we truly seek, but the adventure.

I've done all of the above. I prefer a house with shower, washing machine, etc.
Life is too short, as is. Don't chance it. Don't text and drive.

we have a doublewide that has been converted to a central: shower/kitchen for big meals/meetings/dish tv room / central air and heat but no sleeping quarters. Also have a walk in cooler next to camp house for deer & pigs. We pay a set amount extra in our lease dues for electrical power
Hunters for the most part have there own Camping trailers.
we have electrical but no water - main camp trailer is fed from a 1000 gal water trailer that we fill at the local fire dept. and individual hunter trailers have the 250 gal totes hooked up for a water supply( but come freezing weather we will have to drain the hunters trailers of water) only the bunk house will have running water thru the winter months.

We just got off a lease with a 8600 sq ft house, 1200 acres, and didn't cost a dime. The old saying is true, "something's are too good to be true" Now we pay for a lease that has no water, no electricity, and sleeping in a tent

Nothin yet but plan to put a travel trailer out there next spring. We already have water and power there for it.

I built a single room 16x16 building equipped with AC, shower, sink and camp toilet. We have electric, but we use food grade totes for our water.

When we got it there was a carport and a well.
The well water came out the color of nacho cheese doritos for about a minute till the lines all flushed. We spent the first couple season sleeping on a flat bed trailer under the stars, upgraded to a tent, then the travel trailer, and now we have a metal building, 1/2 of which is in the process of being finished into a house, it has electric and fixtures, some insulation, walls, doors, need to finish insulating it, finish sheetrock/panel and get water in it to be done... Its a vast improvement!

None of the above for us.  We have a camper that the mice use during the off season.

We have two bunk houses but I plan to take my TT up for me and the dogs.

Two cabins each with central heat/air and bathrooms with showers. The main cabin has a full kitchen and Direct TV. There are two queen beds per cabin. We have a shipping container for storage as well as a garage and a carport. I kind of like our set up.

I am seriously thinking about getting a cargo container and converting it into a bunk house.

Its a vast improvement! I've done the flatbed trailer thing plenty in warmer months I wish I would have been smart enough to spend $20 and get an air mattress....

The house at the ranch is convenient but the 300# per day ice maker is a life saver.
Just to make sure that it is done thoroughly, I go both ways.
