  I agree that no one should pay more than their fair share. Personally, I 
prefer to sleep in my pavilion because it adds to the ambiance of the event 
and therefore increases my enjoyment. I also like having my own private 
space. 
   Regarding price, you have to consider the services involved. With most of 
the site contracts that I have read, the site fee is based on the number of 
people staying on site, rather than the number of cabins used. Whether you 
are in a tent or a house, you're still using the facilities of the site, such 
as toilets and showers. That's the real expense in maintaining a site and it 
is one which the owners are most interested in being compensated for.
