From my back paddock with unaided eyes on any given clear night (except from mooning) I can see the full Milky Way as a fairly bright band of white and all the stretches of dark matter running through it stand out including the Coal Sack (very obvious).
I can also see 47Tuc, Omaga Cent, just make out Tarantula and the Magellanic Clouds are obviously very easy.
When I went to the Star Camp sight one night (only 2k away) I was amazed at how much more I could see with unaided eyes! Everything is so bright I actually had trouble differentiating the Crux from all the other stars! There are almost too many!
