Cyclone Cook threw its full fury at Clifton Motor Camp on Thursday night, leaving in its wake an overturned caravan, broken and battered gazebos, a tree on top of an annexe and broken branches strewn everywhere.
However, those hardy campers had seen it all before and were not at all perturbed.
The owner of the caravan annexe under the large branch, Dave MacLeod, said he had seen worse.
"I've been camping out here for 43 years," he said.
"It's a family-orientated camp and, as you can see, everyone pitches in to help clean up.
"These things happen. You just have to get on with it," he said.
Gay Lister, whose steel-framed gazebo was wrecked, had the same attitude.
"You can't do anything about the weather," she said.
"I just think about how badly off other people are. Look at the people in Edgecumbe.
"This is nothing. It's not an arm or a leg."
Their feelings were shared by Clifton Motor Camp manager Bob Pollock, who said he was "over the moon" that there had been no major damage.
"We got off really lightly, there were huge winds. We fared all right, we haven't lost anything and once the place was cleaned up we had next to no damage, just the odd ripped awning".
Family members and campers had done such a good job cleaning up the camp that if anyone had visited it last night, "you wouldn't have known anything had happened".
His only disappointment about the bad weather was that it hit "just as I'd finished mowing the lawns and cleaning up the place for Easter".
