dyb: Sorry to hear about the health issue. My knees are a ticking time bomb, also. My better half requires me to visit Hunting Island before the health thing catches up with me. She says the deer will come right up to you and eat out of your hand. I hope that, at least, we see a few. Going for 3 nights in July.
Thank you for the update on the bugs. I appreciate it. Sorry that health issues have necessitated the sale, but hopefully you are still able to enjoy travel in another capacity.
Back from Hunting island after 5 days. Did the tick inspection after the shower and found one. Also sold our jayco eagle 320 rlds TT today. No more camping. Wifes kneees and some issues I have made it nessary.

Have a good trip,dont do what I did. I threw a cast net for hours at a saltwater pond. No bug spray,got engrossed in catching bait. This was my first time there. Wow hundreds of noseeum bites that itched for days. Lesson learned always spray if your going to be anywhere near those things.
We LOVE it and are going during the middle of the summer!!!! Can you say hot and sticky, as well as buggy.
We have been there in April and NOT had to worry about skeeters and we have been there in April and got eaten alive. Take some spray and use it religiously.

Have a great trip! I will be very curious to hear about your stay. We are headed there at Easter week, and the advice I have been given makes me think I should be shrouded in a mosquito net! Lol I'll be anxious to hear the bug report for this time of year. Do you have a beachfront spot?
