Question about Cherrystone in Va.

[CapeM1]

May be a dumb question but we are looking to make a reservation at Cherrystone Campground this summer and was wondering about the insects. Can someone tell me if the mosquitoes and/or gnats are worse along the waterfront sites than further back in the campground? Thanks for any help!

It could be fine one day, and horrible the next. Mother nature rules on that one. If it stays dry, you will be fine. If it was a rainy week prior to your stay, they will be there in numbers. Always bring the deet.

Normally, if there is a breeze, the mosquitoes will not be as bad. We were there once a few years ago and I don't remember them being bad. If you get there and they are bad, set you up a rotating fan when you are sitting out.

When we were at Cherrystone, we had the waterfront one time and further back the second. We did not have a real problem either time, the mosquitos were tolerable at night. but then we hooked up our bug light. and we were there in mid July and in then again in Aug. Good Luck and Happy Camping !!
