- In this video I show you how I built a very simple tent platform in the woods for my Lotus Belle tent. I also take you through the process of setting up this tent all by myself- even in the winter.
Thanks for watching!

Thank you all for watching! There is no link to this tent as it's not a sponsored video. Tell me, what is YOUR favorite way to camp?
I prefer stealth camping years ago but that was because i did not know the area when traveling and bunking down for night , Really like the tent, looks rather sci-fi tent, i paint sci-fi and fantasy settings, and such a tent would look in place in such setting.

With my dog
We still tent camp, I'm almost 65. We love our little 10x10.... but about froze to death last oct on Lake Erie! We are Texas Trash and not used to that kind of bitter cold wind! I love watching your channel! It's makes me so happy!

I miss living on my secluded 5 acres. I'm hoping to find my new place in the next couple years. Thinking of moving to another state, with acreage of course. My fondest memories at my country home was coming home from work, turn off my car and walk straight into the woodshed and start chopping wood for my wood stove, even in my skirt and high heels. I didn't care, it was a great way to unwind and get physical! I love camping too and getting creative with nature to build or make what I need.
Your videos give me so much inspiration! I'm a 67y.o. woman and still want to live off the land. I make my creature comforts simple and am happy in nature. ❤
SouthEast Georgia towards Savannah and Florida has some nice land.
We can do it. Make it simple though. Let's get rid of things we don't need. I've decided to buy overalls for gardening and get rid of all other clothes. It's so much easier and less clothes to store. All other clothes or items can be donated to shelters.
I understand, I’ve done many projects alone too. I love a challenge. I love watching all your projects, you’re a strong independent woman who gives others great ideas that I personally appreciate 🙂
Definitely think we would all agree we would easily add the word Amazing to your title. Amazing Girl in the Woods !!!!! 💕
YOU ROCK, GIRL!!!! That is so beautiful, I don't think I'd ever leave it. I love the decorators touch you alway add. Makes it so homey. 🥰
That tent stove is the same as mine. I have a tipi tent and a hammock tent, both i put in stove jacks, I will confirm, that little wood stove will warm you out. No BS, they crank some heat in a small place. I have to stoke it often, but i found solutions, Rural King sells briquets that are like particle wood. At your bed time in the tent, toss two in the stove as you stoke your fire for the night, it will get you through to morning when you wake up, warmth wise and keep it burning coals, to build your breakfast stove fire, about 7 hours heat off the bricks. I only sleep 6 a night, im sure most adulta are this way too. But that was my biggest aspect, how to get a small wood stove to keep me warm in my tipi at 5 am, wont need to wake up and stoke the fire. I learned what to do and I live in my tent like its a hotel. lol
More camping videos in this tent please. Love that thing. And it's not really all that pricey compared to other wall tents.
I love this set up, and that you were able to pull the whole thing off with only the help of Moose (and I could tell, he really thought he was helping!) Brooke, you inspired me to buy a gathering tent, as well. I looked into wall tents, but then decided to start with a more portable, cheaper pop-up gazebo. I learned how to put it up in my backyard, yet can use it at the lake to keep the bugs out. Thank you for totally inspiring me!
awesome~
I'm with you sister! I may not be able to build something as easily or quickly as a man (really frustrating), but we figure it out and get 'er done... So satisfying knowing that I did it myself. Sending lots of love 💖 from sunny 🌞 Arizona 🌵. Take care of yourself and each other 😷
My husband can't set up even a two man. 😂 I'm the set up person for everyone's tent. Only need help with my daughter's two room tent. Its a bit much.
@@a.p.5429, my bff's husband can't put together an IKEA bookcase! 💖🌞🌵😷
lol
Just got done watching Micks Latest video nowhere.Gets it from for sure. You guys are just wonderful to watch and you just never say can't do it. Blessings from a grandma in portland oregon who just loves watching your adventures. God bless.
You my dear.
Nice and pretty set up.
Girl in the woods with a luxury condo in the woods! Ha-ha! Not to shabby! Cool tent! :) Moose is trying to figure out what his Mom is doing now! ;) Jim G. Reno NV.
Wow! That sure looked like hard work, but I bet it was so worth it! You're definitely gonna enjoy some fantastic nights in that Brooke! ❤❤
Proud to know you Brooke. This tent sure is beautiful!
Over the years we all know that once you make your mind up to do something, you can do anything!
I so would love to be back in the woods again. Walking trails, Fishing 🎣,Sleeping in tent 🏕️
Florida 🌴 isn’t the same as upper Minnesota where I use to live 33+ years ago.
Thank you 😊 this is awesome 👏🏻
I LOVE this TENT! Could and would live in. Great job, B!!
Thanks B!
You make projects look so easy to complete. That is the most gorgeous tent and love your indoor decorating. Can’t wait for many fireside chats around your outdoor fire pit. So perfect and close to your tent door. Thank you so very much for sharing goodness with us this fine Monday morning. Exactly what I needed!!!!
The platform makes all the difference. Everything will stay really nicely in the tent. Great idea!
I have a canvas wagon tent I put in my bed of my truck. I have a cot,and I put all my supplies under the cot. I have a porta pottie I use ,very simple set up. And I camp by my self. Love ur tent Brooke!
It was our pleasure to watch, what a gorgeous setting you have, I love it!!!!! A beautiful tent..
I ❤ this more and more every time I see it.
Great job on the platform! It definitely served your purpose! The tent is so spacious! It makes tent camping appealing! 🙂
Very cool
Wonderful tent!
Very cool, Brooke! ❤ My favorite way to camp is in the Havasupai Indian Reservation sleeping in a hammock hung between the trees alongside Havasu Creek. But, then again, there is something so incredibly comforting and cozy about tent camping in the White Mountains after a nice hike-in with the smell of pine 🌲 and campfire 🔥surrounding me. I guess it’s a toss-up. ❤😊
Sounds great!
Cool looking tent a lot hard work but you did it proud of you I know one thing for sure I'm glad with all this energy that you use your powers for good❤
You're brave using the white rug! I hope to camp this summer...the tent is beautiful and great job setting it up! Your poor back! Much love :)
Thank you. Recently I build a chickenrun by myself. I thought I might not be able to do alone, but I could. The feeling of being able to do something I was not sure about, is great.
Great job Brooke! The tent is huge. I like the plywood platform. Very simple. Best Regards to you and Dave
Honey I love the way you just go outside and do things for yourself, and I hope to be that person soon doing camping trip, learning new outdoor projects in life,
nice tent
Amazing set-up!
Hello Brooke 🤗 you did an amazing job putting up the tent - looks beautiful inside 😍
Thank you as I will be looking to do this same thing.
Great job and very inspiring
I watch your videos when I need a little inspiration. Not to go camping necessarily, but in general. Just dealing with life is hard some times, and can feel very lonely.
You make a big difference in my life and I appreciate you for it. Thanks for bringing us along. ❤
I love the tent ⛺️ the shape gives so much room to move around . I hate leaning over just to function in a tent . 👍♥️👍
Great job putting the tent up it would have taken me a week to get it up , love your tent 👏👍🐕🤔😍
That's an awesome tent. I could live in it year round. You are a mcgeiver in ways to build platform and set up tent. Thanks for sharing 🤠
That tent is so awesome brooke, be so beautiful looking up at singing birds, trees, night stars.. good job, luv ur videos❤give a hug to moose for me
This tent is awesome and so big . Love it girl, you did great putting it up. You deserve it !!! Be safe and take.
Care
Love the tent...and you are awesome! 👍😎🇨🇦💫🙏
Extra love any video with Moose in it!!!!
What a beautiful tent set up you have I hope you enjoy it for many decades
Lots of work getting that setup, but looks to be well worth it!!
thanks cilla!
I’m excited to do a similar set up, I finally decided on this tent versus other options, thank you!!!
My husband built a platform for a tent we were living in, it was very intricate and took a lot of time, this is such a great quick version!! I want to use this method for camping
👏👏💖💖BRAVO!! LOVIN' IT!! Great job!! Looks fabulour!! Too bad your husband and son weren't there helping to put it together for a fun and memorable event. But then doing it all by yourself gives you a wonderful sense of accomplishment, like, I can conquer anything!! Thanks for sharing! Much love from Texas.
Tent camping is definitely my favorite
Simply magical! I need to get one of these. Thank you for sharing this with us 🙏🏼
You always work hard and smart to get it all done!
Such a cute doggy keeping watch 😊❤ love this tent
Thanks Brooke for the inspiring video! You are a powerful role model for getting it done! I am getting outside and getting happy!
Thanks for showing the set up Brook it is such a beautiful tent, And you set that up on your own which amazing job Looks so comfy with the way you decorate . Look forward to seeing you and moosy do a camp out
I am so impressed that you did this alone. I bought my first Kodiak canvas tent in my mid-60s to sleep six and my one requirement was that I was able to put it up by myself. This Lotus is a lot bigger than my Kodiak. I'm in awe.
This tent is another level of extra 🎉 what a wonderful space. Love the topper tent , all looks 👌 top notch 🎉
That’s gorgeous another feather in your cap
I think the roof too is steep & slippery enough that you don’t need to worry about a big snowfall. Cool tent.
It’s a beautiful tent. Looks so cozy and romantic. Great job ❤
Great job Brooke! Me and the family peaked in on your and Belles progress! Looking great!
Moose. Can’t get enough of the moose
Nice job Brooke! Looks absolutely amazing! Enjoy
This is so beautiful. You are a clever girl of the woods. ❤
A carpet!!?? You go, girl! ENJOY
Stunning! Can't wait to watch
Now that is a tent! You did it all by yourself, wow!
Love your channel and your consistency (work ethic) is second to none
That is so great! Knowing you it will be super cute decorated too! Great job!!!
Brooke! You are an absolute delight! Love your content & videos. I live vicariously through you. I follow you & your husband & all I can say is wow!
Keep ‘em’ coming! “She Gone”!!!! ❤
Great choice & great job Brooke. Good idea putting stove near door, as long as you have another one opposite for emergency exit. It will be great to look up at the stars from inside, all year round. Congrats, good luck, & GOD BLESS. 🙏❤☺
Beautiful I love it 🙏💙
I love the windows too all of them. I love that whole set up all of it so cozy and homey and it does not feel like you would be trapped in as you stated in yicky weather seeing it. Wonderful job you did. Another wonderful get away space. hugs
That’s really cozy Brooke. Thanks for sharing the adventure of putting it together.
I like the creative way that you solve problems. Fantastic way to think outside the box.
