- Опубліковано 4 січ 2024
- After 3 months of hard work transforming this disaster of a property, I'm ready to reveal it to you and hopefully share this special place! My plan is to use it as a wilderness retreat for women- a fun and funky get-away that focuses on health and wellness as well as outdoor skills and good food with good friends around a campfire :)
Thanks for watching!

Thanks for watching! For clarification, this location will only be used by me to host personal events and retreats. It is not available as a rental destination. I'll be letting my email subscribers get the first shot at booking when I open up registration for events. Visit my website to sign up (link in description- Then PLEASE come back to my UA-cam channel so that it doesn't send negative signals to the UA-cam algorithm!). Dates are yet to be determined/announced. I'm thinking of calling it "Camp Wild Woman". Add your name ideas below!
Camp: She Gone!
I'm partial to "Camp Girl In The Woods." Lol
Hey Girl, Build Some Sorta Backs Onto Them Log Seats! 👍👍😜🤣😁😎
I'd love to visit and show you my van I built out several years ago, complete with a Cubic Mini woodstove!
Little Camp in the Big Woods ... eta Ladies Camp in the Big Woods
You are amazing! I am a 71 yo woman that loves watching you because you remind me so much of myself in my younger days. I dragged more brush, hauled firewood, stacked firewood shoveled dirt, hauled rocks, gardened, canned , kept bees, ran an archery store and worked a full time job. Unfortunately, it took its toll on me physically but I would not change a thing from my past. You asked on your web page if I am happy! I am now stuck in Florida (aka the elephant graveyard), can't relate to the women living here. They have no clue what hard work is and how rewarding it is.
Thank God for your videos, they give me such good vibes! ❤
Loved your comment! ❤ Same with me, overdid it and physically paid, but wouldn’t change a thing! Fortunately you found this channel, so your “tribe “ is HERE, not with the elephant’s… !
@@armyofone3893 I am miserable living my life now but it beats the alternative!
I love, love, love this whole idea for a retreat/wellness camp! Can't wait for dates! You are one energetic, " full of life" gal! Love that Moose too! ❤
Brooke you work like a traction horse! You really are just so amazing.. you deserve everything and more that this new year gas to offer! Well done Brooke 👏.
Omg i would love if my husband could be a part of my longing adventure. I would love to be like you but he hates it. I get so lonesome by myself doing it. I admire you so much for you doing it alone.
@@teresasnyder1084try to find micro adventures! Greetings from Poland 🇵🇱 my channel and countryside 🏡🐕😊
A better term would be a trojan horse.
A weekend retreat in the wilderness honestly sounds like my dream vacation. I need to make this reality for myself haha. Your property is so beautiful and it would be an honor to stay there. You have worked so hard at it Brooke, you are awesome!
thank you
He can be the camp budda, tell him your problems and he will squash them. Love it
Absolutely love the wellness retreat!!! So fun!!You rock!!The Sasquatch was a perfect touch 👌🐵
Brooke I am always amazed at your work ethic, creativity, tenacity, and joyful spirit when working on a project. This is just an awesome place and your desire for women to be able to come and recharge or whatever they need, is such a great idea. Love it.
Hello Brooke 🤗 you are simply amazing with all you did to create the beautiful retreat 💖 Take care 🙏🇺🇲🥰
Thank you
I think this proves how much Nature Nurtures Naturally.
Brooke, have you ever thought about bottling your energy? Brooke's Energy Potion! 🌲🍁🌲🍁🌲
Apparently, I don't need to go outside to get happy, because you do that for me. I love the joy reflected on your face when you show us all the improvements. God bless you and keep you safe.
This week has been personally devastating... I needed this video. Thank you, Brooke.
I'm so sorry hang in there!
Hugs my dear friend! Praying for you!!! God will get you through. ❤❤
Prayers going up for you!🙏❤️
Hope things get better for you. 😍🇨🇦
Prayers for you.
Girl you are a 1 woman army! There’s no way I could have done that tent on my own, nor those tree roots. You’re an inspiration, I wanna get out & get happy every time I watch your videos…AND I DO!! Thanks Brooke! ❤
Pretty wild finding a Pudding Stone out in the woods! I hope Mr. Sasquatch doesn't remind any of the women of whom they are retreating from. 🤔 LOVE the mini bus bar!! 👍 Another Great Job, Brooke! 🤠
Yay! Now we know what you’ve been up to these past few months. I’m off work for a few weeks after hand surgery and passing some of the time with UA-cams. You have no idea how excited I was when I saw the notification of yours! I would absolutely love to come out from Oregon to your women’s wellness retreat and meet the “badass Brooke, my outdoor girl that I follow” which is what I tell people when explaining your vids. Great job!!
hahah nice hope your hand heals well and enjoy the downtime while you've got it!
Hey Brooke, loved watching your hard-working video compilation. I love to see what surprises you have for us when you start building! Thanks, It’s beautiful! Your imagination knows NO Boundaries❤
I'm so glad you're taking up projects like this! There are too many people I know that need places to connect to nature, and now I can tell them about this.
Absolutely gorgeous location! Great idea for its use. Wonderful job Brooke! 🤠❤ "Woodland Getaway, We Gone!"
It's beautiful watching someone's dreams come true. What an eclectic testimony to the joy of free spirit. Men have long treasured wilderness camaraderie and the strength and healing it provides. It's time to break the glass ceiling, and who better to do so?
That was an amazing amount of work by yourself in 3 months. I am super impressed, but I shouldn't be shocked by your capabilities. This is a wonderful idea. If I came up, I'd probably never leave. lol Congrats to you! You've definitely got a Winner here! Yes - Camp SheGone
Be careful.
Happy New Years Brooke. What a wonderful retreat. You did an amazing job of clearing and setting up separate spaces. You are always such an inspiration.
how can anyone have as much strenght as you?? Respect!
Loved the blue jay near the end making sure he was heard! ☺️❤️
Beautiful spot Up North. Definitely peaceful. I love how you guys turn raw land into something cool!
I’ve said it before but have to repeat myself: you most definitely are the hardest working woman on UA-cam when it comes to physical labor. Nice work! You really are an inspiration Brooke! The idea of your rustic retreat is so intriguing.
(Tom here.)
Great video, Mam. I hope that's the ONLY Sasquatch you ever encounter out in the woods. Love the 1950's camper, too!! Thank you for making these videos and for preserving GOD'S blessed earth the way you, and your husband do, Mam. May you both be blessed on your journeys throughout your lives. Take care and Thank You Again. (Tom)
I do pray your keeping a watch on your back ! Nothing could stop me until my back was bone on bone from thinking I had no limitations! I love watching you ! Reminds me of how many things I miss doing . Wonderful channel 😊ty very much for great content ,❤❤❤
This is fantastic, Brooke! I love the beautiful way your mind works, I love your skills! What a great way to share your passions for nature and creativity. So many different rustic dwellings adds to the experience. Have a blast! ❤
The Peace of God just emanates from you and it’s a beautiful thing! ❤️💐😊
@@jpolinskyswife😊 blessings from Poland my channel and countryside 🏡🐕!!
You work so hard. I could never do what you do. I would have to be much younger, and I would still need all my friends to help. God bless you ❤️❤️❤️
I love your friendly sasquatch guarding the property.
Sign me up Brooke! Lord willing and the creek don't rise, I'll make it there and be praying by your side. No split competition, my over 60 body said those days are done. But with a young hearted spirit, I'm up for having some fun.
Happy New Year! May God bless you and yours in 2024.
Coleen, I’m a senior in Canada so don’t think I’ll make it but hope you do!
Wow wow wow Brooke! You are a lumber Jill! Such a hard worker and what a special lovely place you’ve created.
What an absolutely amazing idea! Your vision and hard work are an inspiration to everyone. I have followed you for years Brooke, and you just keep getting better and better! WOW!
You’re blood sweat and tears went into it you name it❤❤❤
WOW, You are one hard working, strong, creative women !!!! GOOD ON YOU. Kind regards from New Zealand.
You worked so hard. What a great idea to make a retreat.
Brooke, Thank you for your inspiration and energy! I am looking forward to coming to a retreat! Your drive and determination are empowering!
Oh my gosh girl, you are a hard-working woman that place turned out really nice.
Good job!
"Don't fall. Don't fall. .... " You are amazing, I was WILLING that pole to stay upright, I can't believe you did that all by yourself 🤛🤛🤛 I'm 2 years older but as always, inspired - I need to get strong!
Absolutely love this and the sasquatch is my favorite! Definitely this is now at the top of my bucket list of places to go!! Thank you for making this get away for all us gals ❤
That really was such an amazing vid. Was like your videos of old where you'd get out in the wild and clear some land, build a shelter, only thing missing was a steak cooked over the open fire .. and Maisie. So, so well done Brooke. What a champion you are.
Brook you are so like me, love the outdoors, being still, and knowing God's presents. You'very worked so hard. You should be the first to rest.
Well, another awesome aspiration and destination! But of course! Woohoo! 🥰🤩😊😍
Wow, so awesome! Looking forward to seeing it completed. Would be great to have a site or two for people that want to bring their own tent as well. Love the bell tent, but really goes to show how strong you have to be to put one up by yourself. You must be so happy building this little dream campground!
Hi Brooke! Thank you so much for sharing! You and your husband are my favourite channels on UA-cam so much so that I check regularly to see if there is new content. You are both an inspiration for me and my dream of going off grid with my family . Keep it up and you are awesome!
This is going to be such a Blessing, for so many women! 🙏🕊️🙏
Someday, I would LOVE to join you and others on a women's retreat in the woods! Your place is beautiful and the way I camp with my family, it's a few steps above "rustic."
Hahahaha darn tree! I love that you show how things don't always go right. HUGS! What you have put together for the enjoyment of many is truly a blessing and so gorgeous and it calls to many hearts and souls. Thank you! I hope to be one who gets to come and enjoy a girls weekend there!
Brooke, I love all that you do on your properties. I think this would be a wonderful retreat for friends and others just to get away. I wish I had the property that I could actually could do these things. I'm a country girl and love camping out. Continue with your works and the joys of the time a hard work will always pay off in the end for ones happiness and well being.
Love love love the timeout space. Sometimes when you're stressed and acting up, a little time watching birds play is just what you need.😊
Yowzers, Brooke!!! Have you ever thought about having a work bee? Inviting people to help with whatever needs to be done? You're working waaaaay too hard. Many hands make light work. Much respect. Can't wait to see your dream come to fruition. 😊
Wooow seeing this feels like something sent from above! For the past few months I’ve been contemplating and envisioning a way to buy land and create experiences and adventures like this! Would LOVE to hear more about your plans and the demand you’ve seen. It’s really a dream of mine to buy land, save the forest from the forest industry and create places to enjoy it and reconnect to it ❤
Boy you sure have been busy and what an incredible job you’ve done with this retreat, you are a hard worker and it show! Great job Brooke! ✌🏼❤️🙏🏼
That was a lot of work for one person. You're amazing.
Each time I watch your adventure I think that girl in the woods can not surprise me this time! But you do! Be safe but keep loving life in the woods!❤
I love this so much! Excited to hear more about your retreats and hoping one day I will be able to attend one. Thank you for sharing, once again, an amazing video. That one stuck tree was O.O
Hope you and the family had a great Christmas and Happy New Year!! Love what you did with this piece of land!!
Brooke you're so talented. You could make a barn feel homey.
You should call it “get out, be happy, camp retreat” 😁 would be very fitting and personal to you xx
What a fabulous place to gather! You are so talented and so kind/generous in using your skills to help others enjoy the great outdoors. Wish it were here in Calif. where I could access it easier, but oh, my! The women who will be able to refresh their tired minds in your accommodations… what a blessing!
If only I were 15 years younger! But, no real loss because I have your videos to dream with. Thank you so very much and Happy New Year. Love your Big Foot!! (Easier to spell!)
Hardest working girl I know!!
100% agree! That girl puts most men to shame.
Women let loose in the woods, your camp looks so Amazing, Love it job well done.X💕👀
Nice to see you and your little friend again Brooke.
Great job Brooke! You work so hard. Enjoy your retreat.
Oh! This is exciting, great work! I’ve been waiting for one of your videos. One of my 5 years goals now is to own property and have an off grid homestead. :) Happy new year to you and your family Brooke!
You are truly amazing. One powerful and one nature loving woman!
What a fantastic place! I grew up camping but haven’t had the opportunity in decades. I live the life I love through you! Thank you for sharing!
Happy New Year Brooke! You have a beautiful retreat area!
What a great retreat area. I miss Michigan every day. Health made me moved to Arizona. I was happier in Michigan being outdoors all the time. My body hates the AC but can't be outside when it's 120° for 5 months. Heart can't take the humidity of Michigan. 😢❤❤
Love, love, love your enthusiasm for life as well as Moose running all around the tent looking for you! 😂
Who needs crossfit when you can clear land the Whipple way! 😆 You are strong!
Now I'm sad about living so far away. I would love to spend time in a place like this!
A beautiful place to be. You are blessed to have this with the support of a wonderful husband and family. Have a wonderful new year.
Love! ❤ I just absolutely love ❤ it ALL! Your vision is fantastic. I can’t wait to see your community come and enjoy every location you’ve designed! ❤❤❤ God’s Blessings 🙏❤️🙏 and safety for you and all your family and friends!!
What an incredibly awesome idea! LOVE IT!! I’ll be waiting to see the dates!
Thanks Barb!
Wow, you can move some major debris, I m so proud of you Brook. You have a lot of passion in your soul. Now rest up, ok?
Hope some of the retreats will be work oriented. The hard work of clearing the land, relating getting rid of "dead wood, rotten entangled vines," would be a wonderful way to help women restore damaged souls. Thanks for your inspiration.
What a hardworking woman you are. You've made it into a stunningly beautiful place. 💚💪
Girls go wild in the woods.X💕🏴
Lordy girl, you are so inventive and talented!!!
I so enjoy watching you!! As a disabled, now widow, its been many a year since i coyld do those things. But getting to watch you, so brings back some very good memories to me.
You always warm my heart and my day!!
Thank you dear, for sharing your time with us. Blessings 🙏🕊🙏🕊🙏🕊💜💜💜
Thank you!
Don't know why but saw you briefly in a dream this morning crying. Hope all is well. God speed.
Praying that many will be blessed through this endeavor.
God bless you, Mrs. Whipple. 🙏✝️💜
Wow!Brooke you are such a hard working gal! Wish I was younger and able to do all the things you do.
Oh I am so jealous of all that delicious wood smell! Its been my favorite scent my entire life, I'm 58! I tried to make my own perfume with sawdust when I was about 5 or 6! Love what you've done with the land! Much love from Wilsonville Oregon
I sure appreciate all your hard work to get the place set up for all of us! All us women! Thank you Thank you! Can't wait!!!
Brooke im BEYOND happy for you!!! The entire place is absolutely beautiful. Whoever gets to experience a piece of that is blessed😊💕🔥
I cannot help but admire your strength and your enthusiasm. Your love for the outdoors. It’s a cloak you wear 24 seven. Please take care of yourself. I was watching you lift those big long heavy tree portions made my back hurt.
You are crazy strong!!! So proud of all you do... great job!!!
Wow! Looks like a great place for a retreat. 🙂👍👍🇨🇦
I found your videos late last summer. I don't remember exactly which one I was first to watch. But it has been inspiring to watch you complete your first build and so many more since. I am 51 years old and long for freedom. I connect to many of your life experiences, goals, and inspirations. I was a crew leader for a Veterans Fire Corp in New Mexico, we became A fellers and got to participate in prescribes burns. I love that you were a wildland fire fighter! Your commitment to your family, your happiness, and God is extraordinary. Thank you for sharing so many aspects of your journey. Anyhoo, of all your videos that I've viewed, this one must be my favorite. You always show your viewers the struggle, not edit it out. The tent, the tree; they tested your patience and problem-solving, and you persevered. There is no other option. I want to be strong and learn new skills. It's not too late. With my recent purchase of raw land in southeastern Arizona...I look forward to figuring out how to develop it...on my own. I can honestly say, you might have had something to do with my mind set and my new goals in life. Thanks, Brooke.
Getting real music festival vibes from this place. Like a lower Michigan Burning Man camp.
I’ve missed you terribly, but what a great idea you’ve come up with! Praying all your hard work will be a blessing to you and those you’ll be ministering to❤
“Camp get out and get happy”🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 or “Happiness is Here” I just love watching the joy you have in doing everything you do on the land and love that ATV with the trailer just so fun!!!
You are so creative & always up to something fun. That VW van/serving bar has to be the CUTEST thing I've ever seen. ❤
Nice Camp Brooke :) You have great vision, patience talent and strength. Great inspiration too!!!
It tickles the dickens out of me to see someone do such an efficient and thorough clearing and clean-up job. You've certainly got your game plan in gear. It looks really nice!
Beautiful job Brooke. I could see myself staying there. Lord knows we all need some place to heal and find wholeness for ourselves.
What a great idea! What a job well-begun! God bless you Brooke. I am a long time viewer. At my age, I do not imagine that I can take part in one of your weeknds, but your plan is my dream come true. I became a loyal, loving follower enjoying those beautiful, starlit nights by a roaring fire with you. Soon, I can watch others and experience through them! Thank you, thank you. I pray for you to maintain the spirit, health and strength needed. May the Lord be with you and all you touch! Patricia
I suggest the name "Camp She Gone!"
Girls let wild in the woods.X💕🏴
