Aww thank you! It was a great spot until the owner over sold the campsites after having them listed on multiple websites. I’ve never heard of that happening with Hipcamp before. Glad you enjoyed it
Love this website. I have used them many times. If you look on my channel and search Hip Camp you'll see another option outside of tenting. I stayed in a no-electric coastal cottage and loved it. A great option for when the campsites you want to go to are filled up, etc. They have cabins, tree houses, etc you name it. There is a $10 off coupon in the video descriptions to save you $ if you ever reserve one. Thanks for checking out this video. ~RVA~
Hey Open Minded Wonderer thanks so much for stopping by and checking out my Beach Camp. Really nice location and yes that cocktail was yummo! Recipe is in the video description. Pasta salad too.
Yes! It's an outdoor lovers dream that HipCamp site. Hope you find something really cool. If you book something make sure you grab that $10 off coupon from the vid description to help you save $.
@@Dominic.Minischetti Yep! I love unique places to stay. I get addicted to researching and looking for different types of experiences in the outdoors. LOL! Hope you find a great one!
That's a tent with a view alright, mind you, after all that drink I am surprised you would be able to see anything lol. The pasta salad looked nice, bowls or not. Loved the night skies and you could have a fire on the beach, no so much with the excess people and biting bugs. Cheers Alan
Hey Helene & Serge. This was a fun little overnight camping trip. I love finding unique and different places to camp. HipCamp is the perfect website for me to find those types of places to keep it new and interesting. You can't beat a great themed cocktail! I love making cool drinks concoctions. Thanks guys for watching.
You will LOVE HipCamp Marisol! Its like Airbnb for outdoor lovers. If you do book, take advantage of that $10 off coupon code in the description to save a few bucks.
You know how to have a good time when camping and the Fish Bowl is one fun recipe when you want to live the good life:) If only there were fewer insects around in summer:-) We do not have anything like Hipcamp in Norway, but it looks like a good way to find nice spots to camp around your great country! Cheers
I try to get away camping or hiking as often as I can. It's good for my soul to be in the outdoors. I have a camping addiction, LOL! The insects will be gone soon as the cooler weather is arriving with Fall, thank goodness.
Great location, but bad mosquitos and black flies. They were relentless. But that comes with the coastal marsh environment. Thanks Kemp for checking this one out. ~RVA~
That sounds like fun! Coastal VA & MD is the mosquito mekka! No bueno! Normally I don't get bit that bad. Those suckers were ruthless. PS. I love Gloucester!
You are very welcome HemDen. You never know what amazing places you can find to camp using that HipCamp website. So many places on my saved list I can't wait to check out.
Thanks Gus! I love a good cocktail when I am camping! Love creating cool ones for a certain theme or just something really good to celebrate being outside!
Hi Jacqueline. What an idyllic place! Hip Camp sounds a great idea...like Air BnB for camping? Don't think we have anything quite like that over here! All the best👍
Yep, that is exactly what HipCamp is. That is how I describe it all the time. It's an outdoor lover's dream! I love really loved using it and telling people about it all the time. It helped me this weekend since all the places that I wanted to go were full.
Wow - the site was amazing - but that eagle - that was the highlight of the visit no doubt! - awesome for you! We haven't tried any of the HipCamp locations - but we keep hearing/seeing good things! Great share - thank you!
They might work well for you with your travels if you find a campground is filled up where you want to stay. Very often HipCamps are large enough to camp with your van. If you do ever stay in one take advantage of the $10 off coupon for your 1st stay I have posted in the description to help save a few dollars for you guys. Thanks Shannon and Karen!
You always have the most beautiful setup. Your gears and equipment are so nice with vibrant colors, happy and inviting 👍. Are you on the Chesapeake waters? Will keep HipCamps in mind on my next escapade! Thank you RVA HG and Jaybird.! 😎
Yes, this beach was right where the Potomac River and the Chesapeake come together. You are so sweet, thanks so much for your kind comments. Thumbs up to HipCamp - had to share. When I find something great, I have to share with you guys.
That looks like it is a fabulous place to camp. You always have the neatest cocktail recipes. What an interesting innovation in the lodging market. I may check into renting out an acre or two per small group here in SW Virginia. Only ten minutes from Damascus, Virginia. A cool video as always.🤙
I love making themed drinks/meals when I have time to plan them. It just makes it fun. There are several HipCamps down that way that I have seen. I know of one hiker that stayed in this cute mini cabin from Air bnb in Damascus. It was on a farm with a bunch of other cabins. I love finding unique and different types of places to stay. Keeps it interesting for sure. Appreciate the watch as always. ~RVA~
Kat was so envious of camping near the Bald Eagles nest, wow wow wow! 🥰🦅 What a great idea Hipcamp is, we could to with something like this in the UK, its a while heap of laws, bylaws and confusion over here! What cracking views, made extra special with moody clouds. Holy sweet alcoholic beverages Batman, that'll do a number! We'd wager that would get Thor a little tipsy 🐠🍷🥂🍹...☕ you do need a bigger table lol! Or smaller drinks 🤣🤫🤭 Logan was a handsome boy, loved the Littleover jacket you ❤ 🐕 Luckily we have just eaten or we would have been reaching for the munchies, smashing veiws with your dinner! Love the share bowl, think Kat would have to wrestle it away from from me 🤭🥰 sorry for the bugs bites and that The light house was closed too, Maybe next trip. Brilliant video as always, thanks so much RVA! Have a great week, Ceri and Kat ☕ ❤ 🌞
Couldn't believe I was that close to the eagle's nest. I heard it before I actually saw it. Tell Kat I actually saw both the male and female in the same tree, I just couldn't get my camera fast enough to catch that footage. I love sharing my cocktails. I actually gave one mason jar drinks to my camping neighbors and JByrd and I shared one. I will be ya'lls bartender anytime Ceri and Kat!!! Thank you for all of your wonderful support for both me and this channel. I love it and love you guys!
Great video, such a Shame it got busy and you ended up with so many mosquito bites. I have had that a few times in the UK. Your fish bowl drink looked very lovely 😋 Great video and so cool about the land you can camp on. It's much harder in the UK
Most of the day and afternoon it wasn't busy. Just the night time when everyone got off work and arrived. I am pretty open to experiences, so it didn't bother me too much. I just can't video too much when a bunch of people are around. Mosquitos and black flies this time of the year can be a bit brutal. But cooler weather is coming and they won't be around much longer. That cocktail was so yummy!
I love a good themed cocktail. I always make something special at my campsites. You should try the one I made called Janes Addiction in my North Carolina Cabin video I posted. That one so many ppl have been making, its so good! Thanks so much for watching Aggy Goes Outdoors! ~RVA~
What a beautiful place and you looks so peaceful and relaxing in hammock. We have private camping sites in upper Peninsula Michigan,too. More privacy and convenient I guess. I am not the camper but my friend just camp at private property campsite and she really like it.😁💕🌳🌳🌳
The Hip Camp idea is brilliant. We could benefit from it here in Ireland too, I would imagine there is a lot of hidden gems we will never get to see. Your drink was class 😄 loved it. I really liked your footage of the water it was really calming. All the best for your future camps 👍 Jason
Thanks Jason! I hope more people catch on to that website. If someones likes camping, they will love HipCamp. I always make cocktails on my car camping trips and usually carry something in a can or bottle when I'm backpacking.
Thanks as always! I have never been that close to an eagle in its nest. They usually fly away when you start approaching. I think this one was more use to people. I actually saw both the male and female pair in that same tree, I just couldn't get my camera pointed that way fast enough before they both flew off. Neat experience for sure. ~RVA~
HipCamp is a great website. Do you have as something like that, that might be called something else in the UK? Its a nice way for landowners to make a little extra money. It also gives outdoors people some other options for places to stay. Who ever came up with idea is a genius!
I really like it. I've done it several times. You have to get over the sand being on your gear and in your tent. It's truly unavoidable no matter how hard you try. But very relaxing and that's just what I needed.
Hey from the UK 😁 beach camping is something I definitely need to tick off my list 😁👍 I hammock all year round here in the UK, but a nice sunny beach hammock camp would be really cool 😁 and listening to the waves just lap at the shore would be the perfect soundtrack to fall asleep to 😁 I like a good strong drink at camp also, my favourite is the Brewdog triple hazy IPA, but wow you pour a strong cocktail 👌🤣 food looked really tasty 🤤 I loved the sunset timelapse 😍👌 and a good size campfire is really hard to beat 👌👍 keep up the good work, atb Paul 🙏🏕️🏕️🏕️😁
Thanks Paul for coming over and check out my video. Beach camping is great, until you get sand all over you and track in your tent ha ha. Anytime I car camp I always make a themed cocktail of some kind, cuz why not? Glad you enjoyed the video. Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment. ~RVA~
Hey Jaqueline! LOVE the video! I now have professional footage of my vacay without any of the work! Lol! AND Logan made his UA-cam debut! 🤣 Thanks for capturing my sweet baby. Was SO great meeting you and Jason and we will definitely meet up for a hike like we said!😁
Dawn!!! Hey girl! I was hoping that you would comment here or on my Insta so I could find you and Rhonda. JByrd (Jason's trail name) and I had fun hanging out with you guys and sweet Logan! I don't know about professional, lol! It's just a fun hobby. Definitely stay in touch and we will make a plan. We can do a girls trip too, wink wink. I am always up for just about anything.
What a beautiful campsite - and an eagle nest too! How awesome! It looks like it was a wonderful relaxing time, gorgeous sunset and fun drinks too! Thanks for taking us along!
You are very welcome! I couldn't take my eyes off the eagle. Saw both the male and female in that same tree. You can't beat a little r & r in the great outdoors. And a great drink certainly doesn't hurt! LOL!
A nice chilled camp Jacqueline, looked good. That bald eagle sighting, amazing! 🦅 We have white tailed eagles in Scotland that are rather big as well. 😁
Thanks Walk With Wallace. Needed a chill camp out for this trip. Great location for it for sure. I saw both the male and female eagle in the same tree just couldn't grab my phone fast enough to capture that. (The pair for life which is really cool) Oooh white tail eagles they sound really cool! I'm going to have to look up what they look like now. I am huge animal lover.
First two quiet openers were blissful! Those foofoo beachside drinks!! Loved it! Sharing is caring! Lovely site with beautiful views! 🦅 Ahhhh, wonderful details and great shots. Thank you, RVA and J-Bird!
That tent has actually withstood 40mph winds in some severe thunderstorms and held up well believe it or not. But its 5 foot 8 inches tall so the wind does hit it. This is just a car camping tent. I would never carry its weight up a mountain. I have 2 other light weight tents that I use for backpacking. Aww, thanks Monty for stopping by and watching my video. (Watch my last video to see one of my backpacking tents that I do carry up a mountain. Great mountain views on that one. ( Appalachian Trail/Thunder Ridge video)
Right! You just have to go to those places to see them. I travel an extensively throughout Virginia and neighboring states and I usually only see them near rivers and lakes.
I imagine Hipcamp can be a bit like Air BNB with some hit or miss spots out there. Never tried it, but will check it out. You definitely scored a good spot on this one. Do you find prices comparable to more traditional camping, more or less? Interesting drink tutorial. Not too much use for us as we don't drink alcohol... Trying to think of a passable non alcoholic version. Looks like a great night out though! Your meal prep on these tent trips gets real fancy. I feel like an uncouth barbarian over here.
Yes that right! I always say just that Hip camp is like Air BnB for outdoor lovers. The prices are a bit all over the place just like Air BnB. Some campsites are cheaper than the state parks while other are more expensive. If you go to the website just search for places in your state to take a look at all the different places and prices. Some of the camps are so cool.
The sunset is amazing! What a great place. The eagle’s nest was awesome!!! I had not heard of hip camping, but will check it out. Thanks for sharing RVA.
Its an outdoor lovers dream Dan! It definitely gives you more options of places to camp or glamp. Definitely pull up the site and do a search in NC and see what pops up. Sometimes its an RV, a cabin, treehouse, a bell tent, but I like the ones where you can bring your own tent the best. Tent sites are also super affordable. Check out my HipCamp on the eastern shore of VA, that was a cottage with no electricity that was also on the water. That will give you a different perspective of another type of property. (Great places to stay on road trips too)
It’s so weird seeing this because it’s pretty much right in my back yard, lol. Amazing spot to camp and looks like you had great weather for it and a super sunset! Sweedish fish and Nerds, yum! Yea…the bugs in the tall grasses can be outrageous. 😳🦟 Had a fun time meeting up for lunch!
I bet it is! You live in a gorgeous area! Totally forgot I said I was going to take a pic with you on my closing video and didn't remember until I was walking around in the little store after you left. Whoops! Next time we hike together remind me to take a photo! LOL! JByrd and I had fun too, love you both!
That drink reminded me of this song "How I wish, how I wish you were here We're just two lost souls Swimming in a fish bowl Year after year Running over the same old ground What have we found? The same old fears Wish you were here"
🤜🏼👍🏼🤛🏼Thanks Metro! Ha Ha I love a good cocktail! I’m always mixing up something good when I’m camping or carrying something canned or bottled when backpacking. (BTW - drink recipes are always in my descriptions, sometimes good recipes too🤩)
@@lynnmarie6058 tried to find it under my HipCamp Account but it’s not there. It must have been booked on my partners account. Try searching St Mary’s in HipCamp. That’s the area and hopefully it will pop up for you.
One can make a lot of friends with all those refreshing adult beverages! I'll go check your channel, but have you done a video regarding the Pota-Potty setup?
You sure can! One of those Fish Bowl drinks (mason jar drinks) went to Rhonda and Dawn who were camping down the beach from us. JByrd split mine with me, but he doesn't like sweet drinks that much, so I mostly drank it. That's ok with me! No, I haven't done a video on the potty set up. But there are a ton out there on the YT. I use that little green tent for changing clothes, getting out of wet swim suits, using the restroom when others are around, it really comes in handy.
Champing? I need to look that up. Camping in graveyards? Girl that would scare me! I would never sleep. Now if it was camping with champagne count me in!
I didn’t give the info for this particular HipCamp because I wouldn’t recommend staying at this one. Way too many issues happened while staying here with a property owner who wasn’t present or available by phone or internet to help with. The campsites were over sold and ppl were showing up with no place to camp at all times of day snd the middle of the night, the sites weren’t numbered and everyone was asking me where they should go. Not everyone had fire pit, which was advertised on the site that you would have. You couldn’t drive your car to the campsite and everything had to be carried in, again which was not stated on the website as the owners photos show cars parked at the sites. Too many trees in the way except for the very 1st site. I love HipCamps and staying at them all over the US but this owner has some work to do so his guests enjoy their experience and don’t have to manage his other guests who are staying there. (This is the only 1 I have stayed at that I have ever had issues with) I can recommend a few other HipCamps in MD if you send me your email. ~RVA~
Hi, I'm not promoting this particular Hipcamp location. The owner overbooked through various websites and it became a problem later that night. Campsites weren't marked and it was a free for all with people trying to find their sites, causing people being in the wrong site. The owner was not on-site to direct people and wasn't answering messages when people were trying to contact him. Everyone was supposed to have their own firepit and that wasn't the case either. I will only provide links when I actually recommend a particular place. I hope that makes sense.

Only thing I miss in Colorado is a beach! Have fun
I would take your mountains over the beach any day - I guess I've had my fill of the beach over the years. I'll trade ya!

Thank you, it was awesome to see so many colors in the sky and clouds. I love a good sunset.
Must be so nice to sit there at night in front of the fire 😊
I love campfires. Its kinda like water for me, I can just stare at it forever. Thanks for watching!
That's a tent with a view alright, mind you, after all that drink I am surprised you would be able to see anything lol. The pasta salad looked nice, bowls or not. Loved the night skies and you could have a fire on the beach, no so much with the excess people and biting bugs. Cheers Alan
Great beach tenting spot, Ioved camping right on the water. Coastal Maryland is beautiful. You know me Alan, I always love a good themed cocktail!
Hehee..this drink looks cool!
It was great! Tropical, perfect for this trip. The recipe is in the video description if you want to try to make it. HaHa! Thanks treklinda!

Thanks Paul for coming over and check out my video. Beach camping is great, until you get sand all over you and track in your tent ha ha. Anytime I car camp I always make a themed cocktail of some kind, cuz why not? Glad you enjoyed the video. Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment. ~RVA~
Hey Jaqueline! LOVE the video! I now have professional footage of my vacay without any of the work! Lol! AND Logan made his UA-cam debut! 🤣 Thanks for capturing my sweet baby. Was SO great meeting you and Jason and we will definitely meet up for a hike like we said!😁
Dawn!!! Hey girl! I was hoping that you would comment here or on my Insta so I could find you and Rhonda. JByrd (Jason's trail name) and I had fun hanging out with you guys and sweet Logan! I don't know about professional, lol! It's just a fun hobby. Definitely stay in touch and we will make a plan. We can do a girls trip too, wink wink. I am always up for just about anything.
What a beautiful campsite - and an eagle nest too! How awesome! It looks like it was a wonderful relaxing time, gorgeous sunset and fun drinks too! Thanks for taking us along!
You are very welcome! I couldn't take my eyes off the eagle. Saw both the male and female in that same tree. You can't beat a little r & r in the great outdoors. And a great drink certainly doesn't hurt! LOL!
A nice chilled camp Jacqueline, looked good. That bald eagle sighting, amazing! 🦅 We have white tailed eagles in Scotland that are rather big as well. 😁
Thanks Walk With Wallace. Needed a chill camp out for this trip. Great location for it for sure. I saw both the male and female eagle in the same tree just couldn't grab my phone fast enough to capture that. (The pair for life which is really cool) Oooh white tail eagles they sound really cool! I'm going to have to look up what they look like now. I am huge animal lover.
@@RVAHikerGirl you can call me Robin. 😁 👍🏻 Golden Eagles are my favourite. 🦅
@@WalkWithWallace Robin it is! I'm Jacqueline.
@@RVAHikerGirl hello 👋🏻
Chúc bạn bình an trong cuộc sống...Cảm ơn bạn chia sẽ🌷🌷⚘⚘👍👍
Thanks for watching and commenting. Appreciate it!
First two quiet openers were blissful! Those foofoo beachside drinks!! Loved it! Sharing is caring! Lovely site with beautiful views! 🦅 Ahhhh, wonderful details and great shots. Thank you, RVA and J-Bird!
You know I love a good-themed cocktail SuzTube! Ha Ha! Thanks for watching & cheers irl! ~RVA~
I'd love to take that tent up a mountain in rough weather, Jacqueline 😂 Lovely evening shots, I so want to go in that water!
Hope you are well.
That tent has actually withstood 40mph winds in some severe thunderstorms and held up well believe it or not. But its 5 foot 8 inches tall so the wind does hit it. This is just a car camping tent. I would never carry its weight up a mountain. I have 2 other light weight tents that I use for backpacking. Aww, thanks Monty for stopping by and watching my video. (Watch my last video to see one of my backpacking tents that I do carry up a mountain. Great mountain views on that one. ( Appalachian Trail/Thunder Ridge video)
There are actually thousands of Bald eagle nest throughout MD, VA, and a few in DC.
Right! You just have to go to those places to see them. I travel an extensively throughout Virginia and neighboring states and I usually only see them near rivers and lakes.
I imagine Hipcamp can be a bit like Air BNB with some hit or miss spots out there. Never tried it, but will check it out. You definitely scored a good spot on this one. Do you find prices comparable to more traditional camping, more or less?
Interesting drink tutorial. Not too much use for us as we don't drink alcohol... Trying to think of a passable non alcoholic version.
Looks like a great night out though! Your meal prep on these tent trips gets real fancy. I feel like an uncouth barbarian over here.
Yes that right! I always say just that Hip camp is like Air BnB for outdoor lovers. The prices are a bit all over the place just like Air BnB. Some campsites are cheaper than the state parks while other are more expensive. If you go to the website just search for places in your state to take a look at all the different places and prices. Some of the camps are so cool.
The sunset is amazing! What a great place. The eagle’s nest was awesome!!! I had not heard of hip camping, but will check it out. Thanks for sharing RVA.
Its an outdoor lovers dream Dan! It definitely gives you more options of places to camp or glamp. Definitely pull up the site and do a search in NC and see what pops up. Sometimes its an RV, a cabin, treehouse, a bell tent, but I like the ones where you can bring your own tent the best. Tent sites are also super affordable. Check out my HipCamp on the eastern shore of VA, that was a cottage with no electricity that was also on the water. That will give you a different perspective of another type of property. (Great places to stay on road trips too)
It’s so weird seeing this because it’s pretty much right in my back yard, lol. Amazing spot to camp and looks like you had great weather for it and a super sunset! Sweedish fish and Nerds, yum! Yea…the bugs in the tall grasses can be outrageous. 😳🦟 Had a fun time meeting up for lunch!
I bet it is! You live in a gorgeous area! Totally forgot I said I was going to take a pic with you on my closing video and didn't remember until I was walking around in the little store after you left. Whoops! Next time we hike together remind me to take a photo! LOL! JByrd and I had fun too, love you both!
FIRST!
That drink reminded me of this song
"How I wish, how I wish you were here
We're just two lost souls
Swimming in a fish bowl
Year after year
Running over the same old ground
What have we found?
The same old fears
Wish you were here"
🤜🏼👍🏼🤛🏼Thanks Metro! Ha Ha I love a good cocktail! I’m always mixing up something good when I’m camping or carrying something canned or bottled when backpacking. (BTW - drink recipes are always in my descriptions, sometimes good recipes too🤩)
Is there an exact location or link for this spot? It's stunning!
@@lynnmarie6058 tried to find it under my HipCamp Account but it’s not there. It must have been booked on my partners account. Try searching St Mary’s in HipCamp. That’s the area and hopefully it will pop up for you.
One can make a lot of friends with all those refreshing adult beverages! I'll go check your channel, but have you done a video regarding the Pota-Potty setup?
You sure can! One of those Fish Bowl drinks (mason jar drinks) went to Rhonda and Dawn who were camping down the beach from us. JByrd split mine with me, but he doesn't like sweet drinks that much, so I mostly drank it. That's ok with me! No, I haven't done a video on the potty set up. But there are a ton out there on the YT. I use that little green tent for changing clothes, getting out of wet swim suits, using the restroom when others are around, it really comes in handy.
That HipCamp sounds like a great project! 😁 Beautiful spot to camp, great food, sunset and campfire! 😁👍 All the best! Kaat
It is. Such unique places that website offers. Treehouses too. I have a long save list of places I want to camp at. Thanks Kaat!
Wow! That eagle 🦅 is amazing! Love the idea of hip camp, I wish we had something like that in the UK 🇬🇧. What a fab area. Have you ever done champing?
Champing? I need to look that up. Camping in graveyards? Girl that would scare me! I would never sleep. Now if it was camping with champagne count me in!
Hi jack! Where is this? Been looking this looking in hip camp. Can you DM me the name of the campsite in hipcamp. Thanks
I didn’t give the info for this particular HipCamp because I wouldn’t recommend staying at this one. Way too many issues happened while staying here with a property owner who wasn’t present or available by phone or internet to help with. The campsites were over sold and ppl were showing up with no place to camp at all times of day snd the middle of the night, the sites weren’t numbered and everyone was asking me where they should go. Not everyone had fire pit, which was advertised on the site that you would have. You couldn’t drive your car to the campsite and everything had to be carried in, again which was not stated on the website as the owners photos show cars parked at the sites. Too many trees in the way except for the very 1st site. I love HipCamps and staying at them all over the US but this owner has some work to do so his guests enjoy their experience and don’t have to manage his other guests who are staying there. (This is the only 1 I have stayed at that I have ever had issues with) I can recommend a few other HipCamps in MD if you send me your email. ~RVA~
Hipcamp 🤔
Yes you gotta check it out. Such a cool website with such unique campsites. Thanks for watching Grateful Trekker!
What's the name of the Hipcamp site?
Hi, I'm not promoting this particular Hipcamp location. The owner overbooked through various websites and it became a problem later that night. Campsites weren't marked and it was a free for all with people trying to find their sites, causing people being in the wrong site. The owner was not on-site to direct people and wasn't answering messages when people were trying to contact him. Everyone was supposed to have their own firepit and that wasn't the case either. I will only provide links when I actually recommend a particular place. I hope that makes sense.
@@RVAHikerGirl They makes total sense! Thanks for saving me the headache!!
@@KiamatDusk Absolutely!
