First experience

I am looking to make my first excursion into the real world of nudism, where is a good place to start?  There are only 2 camps in Louisiana, Indian Hills and LA pines do they accept singles?  I have also heard of one called Manitou woods but cannot find any information about it.  Or is it better to have a first experience in a smaller setting such as a non landed home get together?  Thanks for any help.
