Thanks for taking us along for a lovely drive through the Nantahala National Forest. My husband used to go whitewater rafting on the Nantahala River that flows through that forest back in college. It is such a beautiful, lush forest. Great video!

My fav place on earth..that whole stretch of hwy64 from Franklin to Highlands. Several waterfalls all along the way. I spent a summer working in highlands right out of high school and that did it..went last Nov. stayed at the Hampton Inn in Franklin ($147 a night with AAA discount) temps were 45-50 degrees during the day and 38-43 degrees in the mornings

It’s such an incredibly beautiful place! You are right about that stretch of hwy 64! We love it there too! It sounds like you had perfect November! How did you like the Hampton Inn? We believe that everyone should be lucky enough to get to see the Smokys at least once in their life! ❤️

This looks like a great campground with lots to do. I love the petting zoo. It is awesome that it is so close to the national park. Tubing down a river is always a relaxing, fun time. Sorry to hear about your father’s heart attack. We pray that he will recuperate fully from the surgery. Glad y’all were able to get away for a few days.

Looks like a nice bar with beautiful waterfall and evening atmosphere, however, that is not gem mining. It’s play sand that is intentionally salted with rocks, minerals and other materials to give that sifting experience.

You are absolutely right it’s not true gem mining but that’s what all of those “gem mining” places do. lol I’m not sure what else to call it though since that’s what they call themselves. 😅😂

You are definitely right. We live right over the NC line. During the off season we like to call this a sundown town! Once the sun goes down the town closes down too! It’s very interesting to see the difference in the strip during the different times of year! That’s why we like to make these videos!

The lazy river is a lot of fun! 😁 lol you definitely will need a bigger pot for crab legs! But the kitchen was decent for what was there!

This video brings back so fun memories of time spent along the strip in Myrtle Beach. We have never been in the winter though. It looks so weird to see it not be crowded on a Saturday night. I bet it is a really relaxed atmosphere down there this time of year. Thanks for sharing some Myrtle Beach vibes with us!
@explorationfowler
@explorationfowler 5 ай бұрын
We are local(ish) about 30 minutes from Myrtle Beach and grew up here. Winter is a totally different vibe than summer for sure. It really slows down here. It’s mostly just locals around this time of year but I always think it’s interesting to see what’s happening on the strip. You can always gauge how tourism is in the area by the strip. If it’s busy so is everything else. I really enjoy doing these videos and comparing the different times of year!
