It is different here in Florida, for example: Cheap hotel in Key West $250.00 per night without any add on, like taxes, resort fees, etc. Camping in a state park?=$36.00 per night+ tax.
No other additions.Other areas of the state have the same type of differential,just less dollars per day.

From Hotels.com a cheap hotel in Key West right now $49 a night. Check it out.

It is expensive, but so are other hobbies. Actually, as I get involved in something, I'm always blown away by how much you can spend on it. My "main" hobby is bicycling -- road and mountain -- and I wont even tell people how much my bikes cost! My wife is getting more in to sewing, and you can drop a travel trailer's worth of money on a sewing machine these days. Ever been into a top end cooking or fly fishing shop?
But these are some of the things that make life worth it, so ...

It isn't any cheaper then staying in motel. The only difference is, a motel won't let me build a fire and roast marshmallows in their lobby.
Here in Florida, state parks are 1/3 the cost of a hotel in tourist areas.
Agree with you on the marshmallows though.

By staying in a campground in your own bed you're less likley to get bedbugs.
Yea, that is sooooooo true .... BUT... you could wake up with ticks, fleas, grasshoppers, beatles, lady-bugs, fishing worms (and maybe a hook to), a dog, or a cat. You may hear sounds under your bed (trailer), like raccoons playing, or even a passing skunk! (hope that never happens to anyone). You also might have squirrels or chipmunks running over your roof rafters (you'll never experience that in a motel room!), and you wake up to the smell of fresh bacon cooking over a campfire! ... Ah ... you'll never get that in a motel!
