Serenity (with occasional gunfire)

Went here for my first ever solo camping trip, and I couldn't have chosen a better time or place. It was early November, and aside from a couple of hunters and afternoon fishers, the entire place was mine for 3 days. Aside from the aforementioned gunfire from a nearby shooting range, I had a wonderfully peaceful time here. It's a pretty small campground, but is not lacking in anything if all you need to do is get out there for a while.
