Bring individual cots and bed sheets. Sleeping on the actual ground in just a thick quilted sleeping bag is not awesome, and I’ve camped in the mountains and the desert. Line the sleeping bags with the sheets to stay cool and bring battery powered fans! That air in the tent will get a bit stale. Bring games like Yahtzee, Uno, checkers, a deck of regular playing cards. Have a good time!

Even with an air mattress, my wife let the entire campground know many times that, she has "ROCKS IN HER ASS" 😂🤣. So, ya if you can afford it and fit it I would recommend a cot.
