Tune in to KGO Morning News tomorrow at 8:12am (Pacific Time) for a live interview with Yours Truly. The topic du jour: camping. Tent and camping equipment sales are up more than 25% in the last month. It’s a live show. Yeepers! For Twitter junkies, go here: @kgomorningnews.

Our budgets are all tight, but we still need a break from the daily grind. Camping makes for a fun cheap alternative to hotels and inns. At Costanoa, a lodge, tent cabin eco-resort, and tent/RV camping area, a room in the lodge costs $210-365 per night. A cabin or tent cabin costs $115-195, and a tent campsite costs about $55 per night. Which frankly, is an insane price for a campsite and one of the most expensive in the state. At most National and State parks in California, you can expect to pay $0-20 per night for a tent campsite, and a little bit more for an RV space.
