we stayed/Camped at the jellystone in elberta two weekends ago. Inexpensive, quiet, primitive and rv sites, pool, pond with "Catfish, Bass and Brim" as the Mary (The woman behind the counter) told me. Showers and bathrooms were always clean. It's about 20-25 min from the pier depending on traffic. We tent camped, about 25$ a night, cooked my spanish and pomps on the fire. If you want to go cheap and don't mind being 20 minutes from the pier/beach it's not bad at all.

I've said it before and I'll say it again; there is no such thing as a cheap place to stay in or near a popular resort area, especially in season.

I hear Finchaser rents his back porch for $10 a night plus tax.

I see that BassPro has an 8 person tent for sale for under $100. You could get one of those and stay at the campground. If they aren't booked, too.
Well, after several hours making phone calls, I was able to track down a certain manufacturer’s service center in California. Thankfully, they agreed to send out my needed parts. These were left over...
You would think I would know this!
