I spent a weekend in the campsite next to a bachelor party weekend. Over a dozen 20-something guys who were there to celebrate and party. They were one of the best neighbors I've ever had camping. They came over first thing and said "if we get too loud for you, just yell at us to shut up. We're here to have fun, but don't want any trouble." They even invited me over to enjoy their campfire.
