Headscale: Open-source implementation of the Tailscale control server
Nebula is great - super simple to set up and get started if you have a VM to use as a lighthouse. Lots of cloud providers free tiers are have enough resources to host a lighthouse as well.
Certificate management is its one weakness at the moment. There are a growing number of projects floating around attempting to solve that though:

Tailscale free for open source projects
As other have suggested, Nebula (https://github.com/slackhq/nebula) is pretty elegant. It has groups-based access built in which is extremely convenient.
You can bolt-on SSO fairly easily - just create a certificate signing service. I created https://github.com/unreality/nebula-mesh-admin in a weekend, so its fairly easy to add a SSO flow in.

A word of caution about Tailscale
https://github.com/juanfont/headscale not to mention but Tailscale has a very good culture, I’m sure they would give notice if they pull the rug. There are also many alternatives such as Zerotier and more are showing up every day and open source options.

Mullvad on Tailscale: Privately browse the web
You can run your own "head scale" control server and use their clients with it: https://github.com/juanfont/headscale
Requires a lot more setup, but it is an option. I've been self-hosting headscale for some time and it is quite stable.
