Owning a parcel of land that small is a crap shoot. My camp had fourteen years of no problems with the 40 acre plot we have. Three years ago the new neighbors moved in, and it's been a struggle.

The real benefit of owning the land we do is not to hunt it during the gun deer season (too many ppl for the land size), but to be near the massive tracts of public land with a really nice place to return to every night.

We have had some nice bucks taken off of our land in the bow season, but the pressure around our land is so great that the deer are typically nocturnal by the gun deer season so we hunt the various tracts of public land for the gun season.

Most of us in the camp live 200 miles away, so we could not hunt the land we do easily without the cabin we have.
