Are these really teepee tents

The short answer is no they are not. This term (as well as the term tipi tents) is now widely used for modern versions of the traditional teepees. These modern teepees include the following important features:

• Most of them are single-pole structures and this type is not freestanding. But there are exceptions and you will some below, with two and three poles.
• There are instant-setup examples with an external frame and this type is freestanding.
• They are all floored tents. This adds lots of comfort and protection from the groundwater and from crawling insects as well.
• Most of these modern teepees on the market are single-layer designs, but you will see also some nice examples of teepees with two layers.
• They are very affordable.
• They are also nicely packable.

These tents should not be mixed with bell-shape tents which are also single-pole constructions but they have at least one small part of the wall that is vertical.

Note that these are real camping tents and not just something for kids in the garden. But you can certainly pitch such a teepee in the garden.

This DANCHEL OUTDOOR Waterproof Indian Cotton Canvas Tent with Stove Hole is a single-pole 4-season teepee-type construction built from a breathable cotton canvas. The picture above shows that it comes with an integrated pipe jack so it is also in my list of tents with a stove jack.

They build it in two sizes and the larger offers an area of 202 ft² (18.7 m²). This is why it is included in my list of extra large family camping tents.

This is a single-pole construction with a fully sealed floor, and with a footprint included. The waterproof rating for the fly is 2000 mm. The tent weighs 14.2 lb (6.45 kg) and the area is 107 ft² (9.9 m²). Please follow the link for more.
