Out N' About Treehouse Resort

The Redwoods
"Out N' About" treehouses



I can remember the drive into Cave Junction through the Redwoods. We eventually reached the long driveway up to Out N’ About Treehouse Resort. When we entered the resort, tall trees surrounded the whole property with large treehouses and bridges connecting all the trees.

I could see a few small, yet charming cabins on the property as well. The whole place was filled with a magical, childhood charm that brought out the kid in me, excited to explore all the treehouses and activities to do there.

This place is special to me because it was one of the most unique and memorable trips I’ve ever had with my family. I have never seen a place quite like it and I definitely think it is a must-see for those visiting Oregon or more specifically, Cave Junction.

Out N’ About Treehouse Resort is a getaway in the countryside of Cave Junction, in southwest Oregon. The resort is set on 36 acres, full of activities such as zip-lining and horseback riding. Not only can you choose to stay in one of their many treehouses, but you also have the choice of staying in a cabin.

When my family and I stayed at the resort, we stayed in one of the cabins. If you want to stay in one of the treehouses, be prepared to jump on reserving one of them fast! Most of them get booked, stretching out for months. It is definitely a trip that needs to be planned out quite a bit ahead of time in order to experience staying in one of the treehouses.

According to Oyster, This resort is definitely not where you want to go if you are looking for a modern, luxury vacation spot, though. The whole atmosphere is focused on nature and togetherness, as the rooms don’t include technology such as televisions. The lack of all of the modern-day technology is part of what adds to the charm and meaning for the resort. I remember my nights there with my family, we all stayed up laughing and playing card games together.

I stayed at the hotel in the summertime, which is the best season for the resort. This is when all of the activities for the resort are in session, the outdoor pool is open to all, and the atmosphere is the most alive.

According to ThatOregonLife, “There’s also an abundance of adventures to be had nearby, such as the stunning Oregon Caves National Monument, the Redwoods National Forest, and great trails for hiking and biking. Rafting and fishing are also popular in the area.”

While my family stayed at the resort, we also got to see and explore inside the Oregon caves. 

Zip-lining and the Tarzan Rope are probably the highlight activities within all the things to do at Out N’ About. As someone with a fear of heights, I was able to challenge my fears and push my limits, zip-lining through the tall trees and woods for miles on the property. The people who host the zip-lining are also very educated and helpful to those that are both experienced and new to it. If you decide to participate in any activity on the resort, this is definitely one that is a must.

Overall, if you are looking for a unique and memorable trip that captures the true meaning and heart of Oregon, Out N’ About Treehouse Resort is the way to go. There are many opportunities out there to connect closer with family and friends, while escaping from all the modern technology and entertainment that’s now a norm in our day-to-day lives. What better way to escape it all than to kick back in a treehouse playing games with your family?

Places such as these are staying open in the mall by taking many precautions with one being wearing masks and keeping customers at a distance in lines. The play area at the food court of Albany Heritage mall  is seen to be closed, with other stores being seen as empty and closed up in the background. Not many people can be seen near or around as well.

Addario Book Report

Image
          In Lindsey Addario's book, "It's What I Do", my favorite anecdote comes from chapter 7, where Addario speaks about her time in Africa. She went from Abeche, tp Bahai, tin Darfur. She had to sneak in illegally for interviews because the government was not allowing journalist visas. He journey once there was a five-day one, where they carried everything on back. She speaks about how Darfur is different than other places she has seen such as Afghanistan and Iraq. She experienced the kind of war where everyone was kind of against one another, including your own people. Out of the many anecdotes from this book, this was one that stood out because it puts into perspective how much freedom and privilege we have in America. Even though we may not like aspects of how our country is at times, we are able to have moments of safety and peace. Places such as Darfur are very different. They live their lives in fear, especially the women, in several ways. Everyone can turn
