Story

This was quite possibly the worst camping experience we have ever had. The biting midges were horrible! Everyone had so many bites it was unbearable. We camped here for 3 nights and after the first evening at camp, we vowed not to return to camp the next evenings until after dark. The ground was hard and rocky, it was hot and miserable, and the biting midges were the worst.
