The Kayak Camping Experience You Need (Ultimate Arkansas Adventure)
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 30 ก.ย. 2024
- This is the kayak camping adventure you need to experience. Only in Arkansas can you paddle a river like this and be secluded for days. We meet up with Kellie's brother Jonathan and his girlfriend Erica for a fun ten miles down the Ouachita river and spending one night in the wild. We pitch our tents on an island and enjoy some tasty MRE's for dinner. We close the evening with a good conversation around the campfire. The next day we pack up camp and head down the river. Spend the day fishing and swimming. This river has enough white water for some excitement but also very chill and laid back. This is a recipe for a good time.
Johnny Whild, Kellie's brother

Your AR vlogs are my favorite. The scenery is unlike any other. Your love and enthusiasm for the state really shows through the video ❤
I have a camping tip...Buy some wooden coasters like you would put your drink on the coffee table with....put them underneath the legs of your camping chairs for more stable sitting!
Yes can absolutely hear those noisy cicada’s. Also hear an owl, that was awesome. Oh that was an absolutely amazing camping spot.
Woohoo what a treat! We get to see Jonathan and Erica with you guys😊
Love Arkansas!! Such a beautiful State!!
Gosh can’t stop taking Cody always looking out for everyone . Thanks for bald eagle & all the beautiful views . Amazing as always
Nice!! Good times!
Love the add ins and good editing Cody. Keep on keeping on!😎
Thank you!!! 😘
Look at you Cody. I remember when you couldn't catch a fish‼️😀 Enjoyed it...
SO good to see y'all together again!! And yes, the cicadas are deafening! Wow! And how amazing was this trip! Cady and Kellie, I don't know if it's just being 'home' in Arkansas or being with Jonathan and Erica, but you two just look SO relaxed and comfortable. It was another great episode! Thanks for sharing!
Cody is such a caveman! And Kellie is such an angel princess. The perfect couple!
Just loved this video ❤️ everyone should do this once 🖐🏽🖐🏽🖐🏽 Thank you
Congratulations on your graduation Jonathan 👨🎓!
What an awesome camp site! I loved the owl and coyotes at the end of the first day. Night sounds are the best. Oh my gosh, I can't believe you didn't bring your #1 condiment! I would have thought that would have been the first thing you packed, 😂! I never get tired of seeing eagles. We live on the Meramec River in Missouri and have a 15 acre lake right in front of our house. We get to see eagles in the trees in our yard regularly. The river you floated is beautiful. Happy camping 😊.
I enjoyed the drone shot, the coyotoes singing, the owl hoot, seeing the bald eagle, and and the entire float. Its been a long tme since I canoed a river like that.
You guys read my mind, this is the video i been waiting for❤❤ noow that's living the good life.
How fun to be back in familiar territory with a kayak and camping trip with family 🥰 So happy for Jonathan graduating from college too! Can’t wait to hear the announcement! Love y’all and thanks for taking us good ole fashioned camping again 👏 LOVED IT 💜
Kellie I also love a good camp fire! To me your not camping if you don't have a good fire.
I live on the water. Anything you don't want wet put in a Ziploc. Anything you want to float put it in a Ziploc with some air. If you want your bag to float put some stuff from the bag in a ziplock and then put it in the bag! Works perfect for cell phone, wallet, keys etc. Love ya! You look wonderful in Arkansas!
Try a 50 liter drum.
You a\said hot sauce on the corn pudding and I was thinking syrup! I love the nature sounds. Last night was I hearing coyotes?what about thebird calls? What were they?Thanks for the vlog. I enjoyed.
Barred owl and woodpecker
We heard this a double cicada year. We can hear when on your video Loud and Clear 😅. Looks like you all had such a Great time!! Yea...little for bass sure. Bass love drop offs.
Love your videos. ❤
New subscriber guys the video started when the last one ended and wasn't long before I was subscribing and hitting notifications it's the stuff I like to watch. Pretty much anything outdoors, hiking, hunting , fishing , canoeing , kayaking you name it. Have a great weekend.
I miss y’all tent camping days …. This was needed ❤❤❤❤
Beautiful and beautiful 😂❤. I loved it. Thanks for sharing.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Loved the float trip! I know y’all had a blast. Thanks for sharing. Hope to see you guys around. I thought it was so cool to see you guys out in the badlands a couple of years ago and then again last fall near Albert Pike. Have fun, safe travels and Godspeed! Love your videos.

Great video! Thanks for taking us along on your river trip! We just traveled to and around Arkansas for the eclipse from Washington State. Loved Arkansas. Green just like home! 😊
I absolutely love this video. Love seeing y’all’s ❤together 😊 just got the grandkids new kayaks. Now we need to camp. Lol we beach camped last year, took my boat out.
Can we propagate some Codys please?! They don’t make these models anymore!😂 Im sure some men out there would like a Kellie also!
What a lazy day on the river ❤!!! Love it! I sure hope Jonathan isn't moving far away 😢. Cody said the VERY LAST HOORAH! I hope he isn't serious 😞. Great vlog!
Cicada's are sooo loud!
What is the secret, John getting married? Or not?
The area you were in in this video is known for copperhead snakes. Be careful!
Wow you're finally back home again. You just missed all the tornados LOL
An epic trip. Love the basic camping trip tent cooking and fire with Kelly. I’m going to south west Arkansas in about a week to go camping looking forward to Arkansas
Wow u guys splurged on extra for meals(MRE)😂😂❤
7 years ago I used those cicadas trout fishing on spring river and tore the trout up. You can find them on the trees on the leaves . Usually on the bottom side
How fun! I did this 40 years ago, in Arkansas with my cousin I had only met once when I was 6 years old. I learned real quick on this overnight canoe/camp trip I couldn't stand him, but loved the adventure lol. Little River I think is where we went.I remember it was very shallow & in some spots we had to walk/carry our vessel into deeper water
So glad to see you back in AR with family camping and fishing and Kelly is a good fire starter, my wife would use an entire box of kitchen matches and then we would only have a pile of matches burning!
As a retired Wildland Firefighter, I love it that Kellie likes to play with fire. 😆
Fire angel princess Kellie!
When yall camp, yall bring everything. Including ",coffee"!!!!
Love watching this we use to go to Arkansas and canoeing it's was so much fun
This brings back so many memories of going on float trips with my deceased husband. We had so many adventures and fun like you guys do. Beautiful Arkansas!!!❤❤ Congratulation Johnathan!!!
This particular video took me back to your earlier videos when y’all had the bear jew and the Nobo camping with your tent.
The cicadas music is beautiful! I live up in New Hampshire but have lived in the South and I miss the cicada song! Thank you for the awesome adventure video!
Kellie said it and i agree...it was an epic trip, i didn't want it to end. Beautiful, beautiful scenery and river. Anxious to see what's next. Stay safe.
Cody tent days are past us we slept in tents when we were younger but at our age we like our Travel trailer it's small enough to fit in any campground but has all we need.
As Cody & Kellie were setting up and getting excited setting everything up I told my wife we would need a 2nd canoe to float behind us for our bedding and pillows. lol
Thanks for the video as usual a great video.
Love your Arkansas adventures!! 💕 Glad your home :)
Glad to see you too, Jonathan!
Beautiful serene relaxing .& congratulations Johnathan. Best wishes for you & your girlfriend . What a pleasure for you all too make those memories. Keep enjoying life .
I live about five minutes from the Ouachita, but in south Arkansas. It’s amazing how much the river changes! It’s big, wide, and muddy down here.
Y’all truly know how to enjoy life!! ❤️👏👏👏😎
Wow. I want to do that exact same trip. What a perfect couple of days for you guys. ❤
Great episode that was fun and I didn’t even get wet or bug bit or sunburned 👍
Love seeing you all floating and camping in Arkansas! Welcome home!
Yep,I can hear them! The are different types that emerged at the same time.
Love seeing you back in the home state you love. You should be on the Arkansas Travel and Tourism Channel as ambassadors. Your love of your home state always shines. You guys are the reason we came to the Mena area for the eclipse. We could have gone to lots of other states, but you made us want to visit Arkansas and the state did not disappoint!
Johnathan don’t give him that one that got away it could’ve been dinner . I wish I were with you all so much fun !!!!
Fun fun fun~ Now I have river fever!! 😂 Got to pull the kayaks out and go ~ 👍💕✌️😎
Yay!!! I've been waiting for the change of scenery. AR is my fave ♡
Good to see you home . Your Arkansas vidios are my favourite 👍🏻💛🙏🏻
So, did yall start at the dam? Weve floated that but only down to the visitors center thing.
We were above all the lakes. We put in at Little Hope Road and took out at Oden, Arkansas. It’s west of Mt Ida and Lake Ouachita.
I loved this video so much I watched it again! Brought my adult son in to see it too,and suggested he should do this with his buddies.
Pillow in a ziploc bag and Kellie says don't judge. Judge? No, I'm stealing that idea!
That looked like so much fun. Kinda makes me wish I had done it when I was younger.
Swear word for losing that bass! Hot sauce🎉
Love this video! Congratulations Johnothon!!
Fire anywhere is good, but on the river.... Best day ever!!!!
We paddled down the Niangua in Missouri. Fun time
I’m getting really really jealous of Cody’s beard
Dude you must use beard products that beard is flawless
Thanks brother. I use coconut oil and beard balm
@@CodyandKellie
I’ve watched the video three times already
AWESOME adventures with you two. 😊
We both watched video great video
WOW--WOW; can’t get any better❤. Great video today!
Great video. I’m with Kellie I love building fires. 😊
What a great viedo,safe travels,God bless🎉
Awesome video! Good to see y’all kayaking and camping again!!❤ Congratulations Jonathan!!! We love watching y’all’s channels!!
Thanks so much!!
Dude, you don't eat red black berries. You just don't.
Nothing wrong with red blackberries. The extra amount of pectin (which makes them tart and really good for adding to blackberries for jelly) could upset a weak stomach.
We live in Arkansas, we have been hearing them for weeks!
Awe you're on what I call my pebble beach! 💙
Good morning ☕️ beautiful, relaxing video. Kinda jealous, thanks for sharing. 🏕️
Glad you enjoyed it
Whole video so good. Wish I was there.
Awesome river guys looks like alot fun
Cicadas make great bait
Great video guys!! So relaxing, thanks for the awesome journey!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Wow, that looks like so much fun...
One of the best videos you have done in a while! Arkansas is so beautiful and it’s so good to see you guys out and enjoying the water and tent camping. And congratulations to Jonathan! Loved loved loved the video.
Glad you enjoyed it!
We definitely hear the cicadas !
He's getting engaged
Filé - pronounced 'Fee-lay'
It's dried and ground leaves from a sasafras tree. It's used for seasoning and a thickener in gumbo.
Andouille is pronounced = "ahn-doo-wee"
That’s the way to do it. !fun stuff. I prefer a light load long royalex canoe evenly weighted riding high. But..what ever floats your boat will do.
One of the most beautiful places in America, Kansas the natural state my home. The Buffalo river has cliffs and lots of excellent scenery and history. It is actually a national park so you might check that out too! While you’re in Arkansas.
Yeah we have been many many times
Very good video I like the owls and the coyotes hollering out that night pretty cool
Glad you enjoyed
I love all your adventures but its these adventures in Arkansas that got me hooked 2 years ago. Can ya'll recommend a good swimin hole that's kid friendly and within about 2 hour drive from Greenwood . Appreciate y'all.
You guys need serious help with starting/maintaining fires!!!! Love your videos!
What a fun trip down a beautiful river.
For as long as I have been watching you, this is the best of the best video. Totally loved it.
Yay! Thank you!
Yeah this is the way to camp not driving your car having a car around the campsite pick a spot in campout😂🤿📹🎪🛶❤
The Quachita river is a great river for camping/fishing trip. Fly fishing and catfishing. I live in North Central Arkansas and I love kayaking the spring river, and the white river.
That looked like an assassin bug crawling on Cody. Cute, but I hear they have a really nasty, painful bite.
its all kely can dream of is starting a fire
😁❤💯💋
A 50 liter drum it's the best gear you can get to kayak camping.
Sorry about my bad poor English.
Cool Vid, miss tent camping with ya'll. Lots of night sounds...
Yay! Arkansas! I'm guessing that Jonathan and Erica are getting married 😊
