Option 2) .... the camping way ...... $200 : under the forest canopy
Your surrounding is made up of millions of unseen insects and the larger creatures that call the wilderness home, not forgetting the living trees. Spend 1 night out in the wilderness under the twinkling stars. Awaken by the sounds of merry chirping of the birds and dozed off amidst the noisy chirruping chorus of the cicadas. Recognizing that you're a part of all these is a memorable experience.
Mattress & blanket provided inside the tent - consider luxurious camping ! No real need to bring sleeping bag or sleeping pad.
