i've not stayed there myself, but the Deal's Gap Motorcycle Resort has camping available for $12 per night. i haven't called the resort that everyone else is staying at, so i may end up getting a room there if nathaalalalalalanala or whatever it's called is booked up.
this place is at the base of the dragon:
