A very affordable, low-cost glamping option is the Mini Aztec tent at Talula Mesa Glamping Resort, priced at $80-$150 per night ($80-$100/nt on weekdays; $110-$150/nt on weekends). This option appeals to those who don't want to splurge on a Grand-sized tent, but still want to enjoy the million-dollar views, atmosphere, and amenities of the entire property.
