Answer
Go to the laundry hardware housewares section of a place like K-Mart (even big drugstore chains like Walgreens have some of this stuff.) They sell collapsible nylon mesh laundry baskets with pop-up wire frames for about $5 each that are super for camping and traveling. Get one of the horizontal ones for each person. They fold flat when you aren't using them and are great for storing and toting gear. Put one at the foot of each sleeping bag to store clothes and shoes at night. Get one of the taller vertical ones and some tall trash can liners to use in it as a camp garbage can (be sure to put rocks in the bottom under the plastic bag or tie the mesh bag to a tent guy line so it doesn't blow away. ) And dedicate one horizontal one for kitchen gear and dishes.
Also, get some of the smaller flat mesh zip bags that they sell for washing lingerie and delicate clothes in the washer. These are good for stashing and organizing small items like toiletries, packs of Kleenex and other stuff you might want to keep handy near your sleeping bag. If your tent is big enough another handy storage item around camp is a backpackers net hammock (you can get them at camping and hunting supply shops or even army surplus stores.) Hang the hammock along the sidewall of the tent and you can keep clothes, towels and cooking gear off the ground and out of the way. Some camp stores even sell mini gear hammocks -- I have found a ton of uses for mesh hammocks in camp. I like to turn my sleeping bag inside out every morning and wrap it in a hammock and hang it out in the sun to freshen the bag up. You can do the same thing with laundry if you run low on clothes and have to wash out underwear, tees and socks.
In fact, I think I have so much mesh in my kit that somebody might mistake my set-up for a gill-fishing camp!

Answer
It depends on what kind of tented camp you go to. I lived in Kenya for 6 years and every time we went out to a game reserve we stayed in a "luxury tent camp." It's basically a big tent, really nice beds (queen, single, double... you choose). Very nice bathrooms with tile, marble sinks... just really nice. Great service to. The best one was at the Masai Mara (spelling?). It was called Intrepids or something like that. Very nice, great service. Relatively cheap. If you watched Survivor Africa a few years back, it's the camp they stayed in for one of the rewards.
On the flip side, they have some camps that are dirt cheap that REALLY suck.
Either way, be careful.
