A good reminder why we love the outdoors up north so much. We get some heat, sure, but also days in the 50s and 60s, even in mid summer... A cabin with AC though, that's a novel idea. Never see that up this way. Everyone's favourite bit was the donkey. Soooo adorable. Our kids would have been going in for hugs.
I adore all animals BUT I L❤️VE donkeys. He was so super sweet. Thank ya’ll for watching!

It must be nice to have a cabin in the forest. The donkey and lizard are very cute. Thank you for haring your relaxing time. Liked. Connected.
A very rare treat since I always tent camp. But it was a nice change of pace in the hot summertime weather. Donkeys are my fav! Appreciate you taking the time to watch my video.
That was a gnarly spider. Awesome forest great captures of the surroundings. Hiking in the woods in the morning is fun you never know what to expect.
Yes I’ve seen pics of those types of spiders but it’s the 1st one I have ever seen in person. Elaborate web to catch its prey for sure! Thanks for stopping by and watching! Much appreciated! ✌🏼~RVA~
Those rainstorms looked so refreshing. Everything is so dry over here on the West Coast right now. That was a pretty great looking cabin, too!
It’s been dry here for sure! Bad thunderstorms from all the hot temps though. Thanks for watching. ✌🏼
What a perfect little cabin. What an awesome experience even if it’s raining!
I never do cabins, so this was a neat treat on such a hot few days. I love hiking in the rain in the warmer months. But not so much in the colder months. Thanks for watching PFAM5!
I love summer afternoon thundershowers but will not backpack in the South in summer. Cool weather is my jam.
Ready for some fall temps over here that is for sure! I want to do some longer hikes but man its just no fun when its that darn hot. Got your sticker by the way! Thanks a bunch!
CẢNH RỪNG CÂY NHÀ CỬA XUNG QUANH NHÌN ĐẸP QUÁ BẠN ƠI, CẢM ƠN BẠN ĐÃ CHIA SẺ...
Thank you for watching and commenting. I tried to use google translater to translate into English but no luck.
Those cabins looked pretty cool....literally lol. Glad the bug spray issue didn't end up worse.
Sweet cabins, just wasn't too much to do in this area. Next time I'll try someplace different like I always do! LOL. Yeah that bug spray in the eye numbed the whole side of my face. Kinda scary! And that was after I did an eye wash after I did it.
Bug spray can be as dangerous as bugs! 😀 You really find some SWEET spots to relax!
You got that right! That stuff burned like crazy! I research like crazy to find awesome spots. Next weeks vid has a really incredible spot! Stay tuned for that vid. Even better than this one.
Nice to have a bit of luxury once in a while when you're camping! Especially if there's heavy rain threatening! 😁 All the best👍😊
Nice change of pace in a cabin, I am normally always in a tent. Not gonna lie, that ac felt great in the hot summer heat. But back to the tent for this weeks video. ✌🏼
Great edits on the rain and hail. Looked really really cool. So sorry it was so hot but you made the best of it and kept smiling! Thank you for stopping and showing us all the fun stuff there is to see along a trail. Many pass right by. Thank you, RVA!!
Aww, thank you so much Suz! I am guilty of passing right by too at times like when I am section hiking the AT and trying to get miles in. But I really enjoy these types of hiking because I am more open to seeing and exploring more. Appreciate you watching this one!
@@RVAHikerGirl My pleasure!
Thanks for visiting our channel, thought we'd pop over and say hi! Loving your channel, our sort of thing, hiking and exploring, awesome! Your cabin here looked amazing, your prepared food and drink looked divine also! We're looking forward to watching more of your adventures, kind regards, Simon and Elaine👍💕
Hey guys! Thanks for stopping by and checking out my latest video. I post a new one every week. I'm normally a tent girl, but changed it up a bit for this video. Gotta beat the heat some how. My video this week I am back in the tent. Stay tuned. Appreciate your support.
Just great to change things up a bit sometimes and splurge...sure do look like nice cabins and pretty new too... We had been having rain for about a week, but now the heat and humidity as set in...not good weather for hiking with Otis...A beautiful area and always love the fungi...Take great care out there and hope you are having a wonderful week! Bruce and Otis
Hey Bruce and Otis! Yep, I don't like doing the same thing all the time. You just never know where I'll be from one week to the next. I gotta gypsy soul that's for sure. And these hot temps are for the birds man! It's just not safe out there in this heat hiking for miles and miles. But next weeks video I found some water to swim in to cool off from this summer heat. Stay tuned.
Nice accommodation. As long as it’s clean & comfy what more do you need ☺️ shame about the rain, but at least it broke up & you got some summer sunshine. I like the friendly donkey, cutes 😊I don’t blame you for heading out, it can be quite refreshing especially when it stops raining. Xx
Hi Rachel! Thank you for watching. Changed things up for this vid. I never do cabins, I'm always in my tent. But with this hot weather, I certainly did not mind the ac. Back to the tent for this weeks video coming out. ~RVA~
Great to have a cabin with air conditioning! Your food looks delicious, as usual! Nice park- lots of interesting mushrooms- 90+ and snakes - that’s pretty hot! ☀️🔥🔥 Stay cool and have a great weekend!
Back to the tent next week! The AC was just what I needed down in NC for that trip. Whew, tough heat right now. I heard its been unseasonably warm out your way too.
Looks so peaceful,We all need a cabin in the woods. My brother lives in Boston (originally from the UK) he has a log cabin in VT, an amazing place.
You are right! That’s a great way of putting it! We all need a cabin in the woods every now and again! Thanks a bunch for checking out my video! ✌🏼~RVA~
This looks awesome 😍. Such a beautiful cabin and delicious food you had. Made me really hungry. Breakfast looked awesome. Such a great place to relax. The hike was beautiful. The woods are amazing. Spraying yourself in the eye sucks. Cottonmouths... scary. The mushrooms are so beautiful. I know what you mean about the humidity. Tough to deal with. Lunch looked great. I love sourdough bread. The fire was beautiful.
Hey Nicole! Great to hear from you! Thanks so much for all your nice comments. Love coming up with new food ideas to take out camping and backpacking. Definitely a change in my norm, but that's good to change things up every now again. This was a treat but back to the tent!
I would hike in the rain to have a sandwich and drink like those, yuum. Rattle snakes here on the west coast is probably my number one worry when hiking on hot days. We dont get a lot of humidity here in Northern California, but the dry heat will get you to if not prepared and well hydrated. In dry areas your sweet evaporates much quicker then in humid areas, so you dont think about water intake as much, that when heat exhaustion and dehydration gets you. I have had to make a conscious effort to drink water even when I dont feel thirsty. Really nice video.
Ah yes, I lived in Texas for 10 years, I know all about that dry heat too! I had to turn around on a recent solo backpacking trip due to the heat. I started having a hard time making simple decisions, then a headache came on and then I realized I hadn't peed the whole day. And I was fatigued so I had to call the 15 mile overnighter on the AT off and turn back around. Smartest thing I could have possibly done. So appreciate you watching and taking the time to comment.
What a gorgeous spot! My favorite part of Georgia life is the summer humidity! NOT. Watch it with the bug spray! HA Great video RVA!
TY SouthernHike! My eye was burning like crazy from the bug spray. Not fun right there! 👎🏼 Appreciate the watch as always! 😄
Good afternoon RVA, wow! Loved the change of pace, what absolutely fantastic cabins, give you so a great portal into the wilds, ideal 👍❤☕
The storms came in quickly, cant believe you had hail too! This looks like such a great place to spend the weekend, we would love it! We have caravan and static homes around certain camp sites In the uk, and the odd Youth Hostel too, I dont know of to many as off the beaten path as these. But definitely something to utilise ⚡💧
As for your cocktail choice, wow! Very nice too, I used to love a "woo woo" cranberries and vodka I think 🤭🤪🍸🍹👍
The salad and grilled cheese was to die for, breakfast didn't look to shoddy either, nom nom! ❤🧀🔥
Mr ir mrs spider can stay in the tree thanks 🕸🕷⛔
Really lovely place to get out and explore, interesting to hear about the snakes too 🐍 the fungus was cool, some great finds, something magical about a food mushroom 🍄🧚♂️🧚♀️
Wise to call it early in the heat, cracking video and thanks for the share, have a great week, Ceri and Kat 🍞🧀❤☕🤗
Aww you guys always have THE best comments! 🙌🏼 Really loved this little cabin in the woods. Enjoyed it despite the heat. You are right! I love changing things up with being outdoors. You never know what I’ll be up to next! HaHa!
Looks like a nice warm weekend you have had. Sometimes it is perfect to use a cabin as base while exploring neighbouring trails, staying under cover when it is raining heavily and having time to make that glorious drink:) For sure that drink will get most people in a good nice summer mood:-)
Too warm LOL! I usually always tent, so this was a nice change of pace and not gonna lie, I loved having the ac on such a hot time of the year. Yes that cocktail is so refreshing! I love playing with drink recipes and trying new ones. Thanks so much for watching.
Nice looking cabins. Wish more places had these.
They are around you just really have to research and look. They can be hard to find. I have an epic campsite on next weeks video. Can’t wait for everyone to see it. Thanks for watching KrizaKoni.
Beautiful cabin and was a little bigger than expected once you went inside. This might be something I can talk the family into because tent camping has been a no-go for them so far.
Your right, it was bigger on the inside than it looked on the outside. Tent camping isn't for everyone and thats ok. Cabins with a/c are def perfect to keep away from the bugs and get cooled off in these hot temps. Everyone enjoys the outdoors differently. Thanks for checking out my video Hiking Mule!
The wood land !! full watch, my friend
Thank you, appreciate it.
@@RVAHikerGirl thank you and you're welcome, my friend. See you soon
Great sharing plz stay connected 🏄😀
Thank you!
I am going to be adding the Janes Addiction drink recipe to my collection of libation concoction. It looks yummy and the name also reminds me of one of my favorite bands from my youth. Cheers🤙
Yes! It's so good and refreshing that one! You can never go wrong with vodka and fruit! Try it and let me know how you like it!
I love these cabins and would love to vacation there and hike in this beautiful forest. I laughed when I heard you say you had a pancake on your head.
Your dinner looks delicious and so does your breakfast. Have a great day.
Yep, it did look like a pancake on my head, LOL! This was a nice change of pace in the summer heat. Thank you Petra for watching.
You guys living the good life. 👍✌
Try to as often as I can! TY SH77!🤘🏼
Looks like an awesome weekend!! Very nice! Just the food alone was worth the trip!
Yes it was! Thanks girls for watching. I’m a foodie for sure! Always try to change it up at the campsite and on trail.
There are definitely some benefits to car, or in this case cabin, camping... Plenty of dry clothes, A/C, and classy camp food are pretty luxurious, when you're out in the woods! And how cute was that donkey? We'll be keeping up with your future adventures ☮
Yes a little spoiled as I always tent camp but hey it's a nice change of pace. All too soon with the weather starting to cool down will my hikes get longer and my luxury items will be too heavy for me to carry once again. The lighter my backpack the better my knees and back feels. Thanks so much for watching. My next video will be back to tent camping.
Great that you get out even if it’s raining 😁 I like to hike in the rain too, but we never have very hot weather. You would probably laugh at me because I think it’s too hot to hike when it’s above 25 degrees Celsius (77 Fahrenheit) 😁
Love rain hiking in the warmer months, not so much in the cold months for fear of hypothermia being so far away from the car. Different climates we have but we enjoy the same thing, being out in nature. Thanks for the watch and support.
Very nice! Really digging that Janes Addiction! 😊 It is the summer heat and bugs 🕷 that keep me off the trails for a span; especially on very long hikes. I look forward to those cooler trail-days. Well done 👍
July & August I take a break from those long hikes and opt for shorter ones and focus on camping more. Preferably near water if I can. Stay tuned for next weeks vid. I think you’ll enjoy camping at that videos location.
@@RVAHikerGirl 👍
Love this. Just did a hike in West Jefferson NC. It is a sultry time to hike...but it makes me appreciate the fall. Hikes. :-)
🙌🏼Amen to that! Can’t wait til 🍁🍂
Hello friend, how are you? Thanks for sharing that cabin and very cool place to spend some time in nature. Greetings and keep up the good work
I’m good! Thanks for popping over and watching my latest video! Back to my tent for this weeks video. A rare treat of a cabin, was quite cozy! Thanks for the watch!
What an awesome cabin. Love it. Great weekend. 👍
Hey, Tom thanks a bunch!
Nice video, nice cabin. Interesting mushrooms. Used to live in Louisiana, and familiar with the humidity and heat. Thank you for sharing. Wishing you a wonderful weekend. Stay Safe.
Thank you very much. I lived in TX for 10 years, ha ha we might have been neighbors! Nice of you to watch and comment.
Amazing experience! It’s always great to explore the places you never been before! Good stuff!
Couldn't agree more! Thanks for stopping by my channel and watching my latest video.
You guys know how to live right, well, except for getting drenched! But, that can be fun sometimes, too. Then, you treated yourselves! Jane's addiction looks awesome, and what yummy sandwiches and salad. Looked very hot and muggy, and doubt I even know what it is like. Tubing on the river looked like a good idea. Sorry you got a sore throat at the end, but it looked like a relaxing trip.
Awesome of you to come over and check out my channel. Appreciate your support. This was a nice change of pace to have a little ac in the woods instead of being in my tent down there in the mugginess! But tomorrow's video, I am back in the tent haha!
Wow, never saw this video, but sure did stay at cabin #3 last winter and it was awesome! My daughter lives about 25 minutes away from RRSP and I visited with her and my grandkids. It was $55/night last year, it's now $75/night. Still a great deal except for them closing the gate at dark. 😊
Yes great little cabins. Yes I’ve always struggled with campgrounds closing gates while I understand it’s to keep other people out it’s scary in case of an emergency and you want to leave .
@@RVAHikerGirl that seems to be a North Carolina thing! Have camped all over the country and never ran into that until we stayed at a NC state park in Apex. Thankfully sunset is later in spring and summer!
Awesome video, really cool place. Got to love the summer heat and humidity.
Thanks so much! Yeah July and August are usually my shorter hike months. I save the longer ones and backpacking trips for the cooler temps. Appreciate ya watching!
Cool place. Thanks for sharing this.
You are very welcome! TY for taking the time to check out my video!
Excellent video. Nicely edited together to tell the story of the trip. The cabin looks lovely. I also dont enjoy hiking when its hot. Thanks for sharing 👍👍👍
Thanks for visiting my channel! Hot hiking=no bueno for me either. So changing it up for a cool cabin was a real treat!
Nice cabin! Looks like you had a good time despite the rain. The drinks and food looked great! Nice water bottle! Looking forward to the heat of summer cooling off a bit. It does rain a lot in the south. Just went camping with Senior Hiker 77 the other day and we got caught in a huge rainstorm. If you want to be outside in the late summer, there is a good chance you will get wet.
Thanks Andy! I was just on a camping trip and 2 severe thunderstorms pounded us back to back. Had to run to the car, because we worried the 40mph winds were going knocking branches out of the trees and worried the tent wasn't gonna make it. We survived and so did my new tent luckily! I'm ready for fall temps so I can go do my longer hikes and backpacking trips again! Bring on fall! Thanks for watching and glad you spyed your sticker!
Very nice
Thank you for watching!
We have been getting a bit of that in the UK, real hot mornings then torrential rain in the afternoon, unusual for us. Loved the cabin and air-conditioning too, real nice. That rain really came down on your first hike and the beauty of shaving my head is, you are not bothered about wet hair lol. The cocktail sounded dam refreshing and loved the toasted sandwiches, or doorsteps as well call them when they have been cut that thick. Healthy start to the morning but man 99F is way to hot for me, not too keen on the sound of snakes! I think you got it right in that hammock with a good book, although kayaking and margarites sounded good too. I hope you are feeling okay now that you are back home, cheers Alan
These are what we call the "dog days" of summer. Right now feels like temps are 105 degrees, needless to say, I am inside today! July and August are not my long hike months that's for sure. In next week's video, I address that a little bit. Around here you gotta look where you're walking because you could step on a danger noodle (venomous snake) if you're not careful. So just a way of life. The hammock was the perfect way to cool down. Try that cocktail Alan, it's so refreshing. Cheers back at ya my friend ~RVA~
Nice place ty for sharing
You are very welcome!
wow nice view my new friends.👍❤ see you arounds
Thanks for stopping the channel and checking out my videos. Appreciate it.
Looks like you was having a good and relaxing time. In the South those summertime pop up showers happens a lot. All your food looked delicious 👍🏻🤔
Hey there Jason! Thanks a bunch! Be sure to watch next week's video! You have a little shout-out in my next one. But I think I may have misquoted you, lol. In our comments, I think you said in July and August you trade in your backpack for your kayak. I think I actually said you trade in your hiking shoes for your backpack. Close but oh well I tried. HA HA. Stay tuned.
@@RVAHikerGirl 😁😁😁
Woww . enjoy hiking and stay Safe
Thanks for stopping by and watching! 👍🏼 ~RVA~
Looked a good trip, food looked great to, atb from Scotland👍🏕
Thanks for checking out my video. Really appreciate it.
Yes it is way too hot and humid to camp right now.
The only place to be is in the water! Next weeks video I had me a VA refresh Kevin! Stay tuned.
Very nice content, new friend here watching and stay connected
Welcome to the channel! Happy to have you a part of my CZcams family.
Very nice video i enjoyed 😀 thanks for sharing take care.
Thank you Nature Views & Sounds, appreciate you stopping by and checking out my video.
Nicely done. Great to see a bit of Ravens Rock State Park. Hoping to check that one out soon.
Make sure you go to the overlook I wasn't able to get to due to the heat and thunderstorms. It looks out right over the river. Thanks TravelTrailSail!
Great vid, very professionally done too - subbed ⛺️👌
Awesome of you to come over and check out my channel. Greatly appreciate it.
Great video, enjoyed that! It’s mental how the weather can change, I thought it was bad here but it’s especially bad over the pond! Looked a nice play to stay that, nice woods to go hiking although I would be a bit over the top thinking everything was some sort of snake or something ahah, all the best Joe!
I am used to looking for snakes. I love watching and photographing them. They are hard to see because of their great camouflage. Especially when I am alone I am very away of my surroundings. Thanks, Joe for watching, appreciate ya!
goods video
Thank you much appreciated!
Hope you are feeling better from the heat and the smoke irritation the trip looked lovely I definitely will be taking your cocktail idea along with us when we get down to North Bend in September think we will really enjoy that one great trip great video as usual
Such a great refreshing drink that one! I’m actually in spot 161 at NB right now! HAHA! Not videoing this one. Just taking pics of my new tent. I was only staying for 1 night then decided why not stay a 2nd night, it’s so beautiful!
@@RVAHikerGirl I love it!!! I just got off the phone with them earlier trying to find a place to rent kayaks for our trip lol it’s all about the North Bend these days 😆 Enjoy!!
wow, i really how calming and soothing this vlog is! I really love your video! I enjoyed watching it, I will continue to support your channel!💖😊 btw I’m a fellow CZcamsr in Korea hope we can stay connected 💖
Appreciate your kind comments. Thanks so much. I'll check out your channel now.
That was a fun trip. Cute cabins to relax in. Getting caught in the rain was fun. Cool looking mushroom on the tree. Looks like you were eating well on the trip, great food and cocktails. Great trip. Have a great day.
Thank you! Yeah, I can't get spoiled with these cabins, so it's back out to the tent for my next video. Just waiting for cooler temps to go on my longer hikes and backpacking trips again. Where is fall? I always try to give ppl some new food ideas to try out camping or hiking. I get tired of the same old stuff all the time. Happy Saturday!
Well I am now hugely jealous
HaHa! Find yourself a lil cabin girl! This one was super cheap! Just changing up the tent for a little luxury in the woods during the dog days of summer.
That cabin looked AMAZING! Just the perfect place to relax, I was in North Carolina just before Covid in a place called Raeford, if I go back I will have to get the location of these cabins and get one for the weekend👍
You mentioned Raleigh too I went there as well 👌
@@BulldogBadger I wouldn't plan on staying longer than 2 days here. Besides the trails, there's not much to do besides relax. There is no water access unless you hike down to the river on the trails. .9 is the closest. While I loved the little cabins, I definitely want to try out some other state parks to check out more camping options in NC. I had looked at Jordan Lake, they have waterfront camping there. That's a possibility the next time I am down that way.
Getting your stuff dry is a pain sometimes! 😁 Lucky you had a cabine in the woods! 😁 That sounds dangerous as well, it is that only in the movies? 😁 All the best, Kaat
Yes that’s all in the movies LOL! No honor scenes at this quaint little cabin ha ha. This was a work trip for JByrd so we made the best of it outdoors instead of a tradition business hotel.
This is just the cutest little haven of loveliness! Like 56! :)
Aww thanks so much! Nice little change of pace for a few days off the grid.
Custindo a natureza
Tried to look up what your comment said. The only translation I could find was "Costing Nature". Could you tell me what the English translation is? Appreciate you watching and taking the time to comment.
Assalamu Alaykum 👍👍👍👍
Thanks a bunch for the thumbs up!
hi! looks fun , im trying to find some place to do cabin camping near gastonia! can you tell me some places where i can go to?
Check the state parks and recreational.gov or even HipCamp. I use all of them when looking for spots. And of course Airbnb sometimes had affordable options. ~RVA~
I am afraid if I rented a cabin I would not want to leave.
Yep, that does make it tough. But ya eventually run out of food and water. Ha Ha!
