Notoriously hated by students, but still consistently packed on any given night during the school year. Don't look up, don't look down, no open-toed shoes (or shoes you don't want soaked in alcohol by the end of the night), and if you drop something on the floor, it's gone... don't pick it up... I don't care if it's important to you... it's gone forever and you're just gonna have to accept that and move on

A great place to find some quiet away from the business of the city. There are lots of hiking trails, a lake, and some picnic areas.
