Glamping in Ohio: Checking out The Mohicans Treehouse Village

The Traveling Praters presents Travel Inspired Living. When it comes to unique lodging, it doesn’t get any better than glamping in Ohio in a treehouse inspired by Treehouse Masters’ Pete Nelson. You’ll find this and more at The Mohicans located in the rolling hills of Glenmont, a short drive from Ohio’s Mohican State Park and Amish…

Things to do in Ohio: Mohican

The area surrounding Loudonville, Ohio and Mohican State Park is often referred to as simply “Mohican”. One of my favorite places to visit in Ohio and a destination close to home, my family has spent many days and nights exploring the area. We even took our first camping trip at the campground in the Mohican State Park campground. I’d…

  • All good things must come to an end...for now. This is our last day of van camping on our first van camping trip in the @dodgeofficial Promaster 2500. There are a couple things I've learned. __________________________ 1. Van camping in the Promaster is so much easier then camping in my minivan. 2. My husband gets really crabby if he is hungry or tired. 3. We both become unbearable when we've been cooped up in the van for too long of a time. Which leads us to this photo. _________________________ When we road tripped with our kids, we always found state or national parks where we could stretch our legs and get some space. I thought it was needed to for them- not us. Turns out that the hubs and I need that outdoor space for our sanity as much as the kids did. 🌿🌳 ____________________________ Today, my husband and I drove quite a few miles. We were getting tired and we weren't being as nice as we could have been. So we stopped to walk on the trails at Lee State Park in South Carolina. It's amazing how much a little bit of time in nature can improve one's mood. An hour later we were back on the road with our good moods restored. 🍃 __________________________ What way(s) do you keep the peace when you road trip with others? __________________________ #scstateparks #southcarolina #discoversc #roadtrip #exploremore #optoutside #vancamping #travelinspiredliving #tbin #travelphotooftheday #picoftheday #traveltagged #travelblogger #travel #travelusa #travelmoments #explore #instatravel #instapic #naturetherapy
  • Some go to @discoverdaytonabeach for the Daytona 500, I pulled off the interstate not to watch a race, but to see the larger than life Jantzen Girl. ______________________ The Jantzen Girl is one of six created for Jantzen in the late 1950's and one of four that remain today. This particular diver was suspended above Stamie’s Smart Beach Wear shop from 1965 until the shop closed in 2017. Jantzen took possession of the mannequin upon its closure to protect it. _______________________ The public was not ready to see the icon go and after a public outcry, Perry Ellis International, who now owns Jantzen, agreed to return the refurbished diver girl to Daytona. _______________________ The diver girl is now on view at One Daytona’s Victory Circle along with informational signage. _______________________ What type of stops do you pull over for when you road trip? _______________________ #travelmoments #traveltagged #roadsideamerica #roadsideattraction #ipulledoverforthis #insearchofquirk #travelinspiredliving #travel #roadtrip #roadtrippers #atlasobscura #roadtripvibes #exploreusa #visitfl #daytonabeach #picoftheday #travelphotography #travelblogger #tbin #florida #roamflorida #instago
  • So much beauty in something that is dead. _____________________ Driftwood Beach is one of the coolest places I've been on this #vancamping trip and probably ranks up there with all time favorite places. _____________________ After driving through rain most of the day, the clouds began to subside as we entered Georgia, allowing us plenty of time to spend walking along the beach- me taking photos and my husband hunting for glass floats. _______________________ I can't wait to explore more tomorrow. Have you been to Jekyll Island? What do you suggest? ________________________ #vancamping #roadtrip #jekyllisland #exploregeorgia #driftwoodbeach #beachvacation #exploreusa #exploremore #traveltagged #travelphotooftheday #landscapephotography #picoftheday #travelinspo #instatravel #instapic #explore #vanlife #beach #travelinspiredliving #roadtripvibes #tbin #travel #travelwriter #travelblogger #travelgram #travelusa #travellust #travelforlife #wheretofindme #natgeo
  • I often seek out historical homes to tour when I travel and I've found homes from the Gilded Age or just past to be my favorite. The opulence and extravagance is mind boggling. If I could travel back in time I'd love to spend a day as a guest in a property like this. Vizcaya was the home of one of antiquities collector and top International Harvester executives, James Deering. Inspired by European estates and palaces, the 38,000 square foot home features 54 rooms, 34 of which are normally open to the public. The property cost $26 million to build. In today's prices, that could be as high as $8.7 billion! The home is gorgeous inside and out. A perk- the free parking allowed enough space to park the van though the backup camera certainly came in helpful. Have you been to Miami and strolled the corridors of this lavish estate? __________________________ #visitflorida #miami #historicplaces #historylesson #instatravels #travelusa #traveltagged #travelwriter #nationalregisterofhistoricplaces #architecture #architecture_lovers #architexture #explore #exploremore #picoftheday #roadtrip #vancamping #vanglamping #vanlife #travelinspiredliving #tbin #travelblogger #florida
  • You may not know, but almost 10 years ago, my family was a full-time RV family. 🚐 _______________________ My husband and I, along with our three teenagers and rescued pound puppy lived in a 31-foot motorhome for 18 months. There were times we laughed, times we cried, and times we thought we would die if we had to endure one more moment in that cramped space. But I thank Jesus for that opportunity. It made our family who we are today. ________________________ My husband always told me when the kids were grown, he wanted to go back to a nomadic life but this time around we didn't want the expense of the RV. So we're testing out what it's like to travel in his 2017 @dodgeofficial Promaster in what we call the #vancampingexperiment. We've been on the road for 6 days and plan to continue for atleast another week. You can see more of what we're up to via Facebook (travelinspiredliving) or in my stories. ___________________________ Have any questions about van camping? Ask them here or shoot me a DM. ___________________________ #vancamping #vanlife #vanglamping #explore #exploremore #roadtrip #roadtripusa #travelinspiredliving #travelusa #travelwriter #traveltagged #camping #glamping
  • If you're traveling along I-95 near Raleigh in North Carolina, you must take a quick detour to nearby Wilson. This charming town has several unique stops that include the tallest Cape Hatteras Lighthouse replica, a muffler man and this cool whirligig park. I've never seen anything like it. I'll have more info on the blog soon but in the meantime check out my Facebook page (Travel Inspired Living) for more info. ____________________________ #roadsideattraction #roadsideamerica #insearchofquirk #ipulledoverforthis #roadtrip #vancamping #vanglamping #traveltagged #visitnc #travel #exploremore
  • Time spent by the ocean is good for the soul.💕 __________________________ I'll never forget my first trip to the ocean as a 2nd grader. My parent's took me out of school for almost two weeks to visit the Eastern seashore. 🌊 ___________________________ I loved every minute of it. I still had to do my schoolwork, which my teacher had kindly sent along, but instead if doing it from behind a desk, I did it each morning sprawled across a hotel bed. 📚 ____________________________ The afternoon was reserved for running on the beach, digging up mole crabs, building sandcastles and exploring the many historical sites that dot the coast. 🗽 _____________________________ It was this experience that taught me the importance of family travel, and now that my kids are grown, the desire to continue traveling with my husband and draws me back to the coast again and again. ❤ _____________________________ Do you have a travel memory that has impacted your decisions moving forward? 🚙 _____________________________ #visitsc #myrtlebeach #beach #beachcomber #roadtrip #vancamping #vanglamping #travelinspiration #traveltagged #travelmoments #travelinspiredliving #wanderlust #mytinyatlas #beachvacation #exploreusa #optoutside #exploremore #picoftheday #travelphotography #travelphotooftheday #landscape #travellust #travelforlife #travelgrams #travelmoments #travelusa #photodiary #roadtripping #travelinspo #explore
  • Adventure. You know, when my husband and I woke up this morning in our camper van, we had no idea where we were headed. Maybe that's not entirely true. We have an end destination. We just haven't planned the points between A to B. And I'm okay with that because it makes our road trip that much more of an adventure. 🚙 . . . . Are you a spontaneous traveler, plan out every detail or fall someplace in between? . . . . #adventureawaits #visitnc #roadtripvibes #roadtrip #vancamping #vanlife #vanglamping #travelinspiredliving #traveltagged #pilotmountain #explore #exploremore #picoftheday #instapic #travelusa #travel #travelphotography #instatravel #travelgram #travelinspo #travelmoments #nature #naturetherapy #mountain #northcarolina
