[@ewak5725]

Prepare to get wet is good tip . I always forget about that . Steep drap is also important to keep in mind since I have little kids

[@christyevershappily4eversafter]

Glad this was helpful! Even though my kids are older, I still keep an eye out for things like that to tell others! Once a mom always a mom :)

[@Crazyornot_US]

What beautiful falls! We've seen so many during our 4 years on the road. My favorite is the big Yellowstone one.

[@christyevershappily4eversafter]

Hopefully you'll make it out this direction and put this one on your list! :)

[@MorleysCrew]

Love how you went off track to explore, sometimes thats the best bits. It looks lovely, so peaceful and serene.

[@christyevershappily4eversafter]

Yes, so peaceful! So many great spots to sit and enjoy :)

[@Jaansmita17]

Wow the place is so beautiful😍 love the video☺

[@christyevershappily4eversafter]

Thank you so much 🤗

[@boycityhd6835]

The waterfalls and surrounding area are stunning beautiful 😻

[@christyevershappily4eversafter]

I agree! One of my favorite trails by far!

[@The_Brit_Girls]

You totally blew my mind when you said there was a woman in the picture when looking at the falls! I could hardly see her even when you pointed her out! I loved this video so much. I hope i can go someday!

[@christyevershappily4eversafter]

IKR! I'm so lucky she was there. video doesn't properly show how massive this waterfall is!

[@meditationforhealthandheal9868]

OMG those falls are so majestic! I'd love to get up early every morning and have a meditation session at each of the falls! The falls at the end of the trail are magnificent, but there's a certain strong yet peaceful vibe in those smaller ones! This is certainly on my bucket list of waterfall hikes next time I'm in nC

[@christyevershappily4eversafter]

IKR! So glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching!

[@BrooklynAvenue]

We are about to visit this weekend. If the rain doesn't stop us, we are going to these falls! Thanks! You made an incredibly helpful and professional video, even warnings about the types of shoes to wear and the bathrooms to use!

[@christyevershappily4eversafter]

Thank you so much for the feedback and kind words. You made my day 😊 I’m so happy you found this this helpful. Have an amazing hike!

[@donnahandkins5296]

wow! what a gorgeous place. I didn't know NC had waterfalls like that. so much great info!! I appreciate that. I feel ready to pack up and go.

[@christyevershappily4eversafter]

yes, so many beautiful waterfalls!

[@calililycreations7357]

I haven't been to these falls in years. Looking forward to heading back there soon on our journey.

[@christyevershappily4eversafter]

Let me know when you get to go. I'd love to hear what you think!

[@rethinkinglove6269]

This is really helpful! This would be a nice place to go the day after we hit Asheville! Really Loved the bathroom heads up! Oh, dear! 2-3 hours! Sounds good!

[@christyevershappily4eversafter]

This would be perfect after your time in Asheville! It's an easy drive. Let me know what you think when you go!

[@davidvanscyoc7501]

nice video! goin there next month!

[@christyevershappily4eversafter]

Nice! Enjoy! There may still be some color on the trees depending on what part of the month you go. Thank you for watching 😃

[@kaydance9059]

I absolutely love this, nature, waterfalls what more could you ask for. Definitely a great video for anyone traveling to NC, an insider guide to a beautiful place that might otherwise go unnoticed.

[@christyevershappily4eversafter]

IKR! It's perfect! Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching!

[@ClaiMere]

like the info you shared. clean and nice roads. love the video.

[@christyevershappily4eversafter]

Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it 🤗

[@CasaBalanza]

Our family recently started RVing and camping last October part time on the weekends, but mainly around Florida and Georgia. We'd love to visit that area in the fall sometime, so are thankful you've done this video for us to bookmark. We do hope to camp and RV full time in the future though.

[@christyevershappily4eversafter]

how fun! I'm glad this video was helpful! Enjoy your travels, sounds like a great adventure! :)

[@PhillipGibsonPhotography]

The Catawba Falls trail looks beautiful. I’ve lived in NC my whole life and I’ve never been here! I’m starting to work on a new portfolio/photography book so I’m going to definitely check this area out! Do you have any suggestions on what time of year is the best time to visit the falls?

[@christyevershappily4eversafter]

This would be a great place for your photography! Different times of the year will give you so many different photo ops. If you go in the Spring or fall, you'll get the different colors of the seasons, plus the trees will be more bare so you'll be able to see more of the hidden parts of the river and smaller falls that are more covered in summer leaves. If you go at the end of may to early june you may be able to get some of the rhodedendrons blooming along the trail. In winter, if it's cold enough you might get some cool frozen waterfall pics.

[@PhillipGibsonPhotography]

@@christyevershappily4eversafter I really do want to get out there and check this out for sure. I honestly can't believe I've never been there. I really enjoyed the videos and how you'd take us off the beaten path to show us other areas around the trail.

[@2021-j2d]

How are the roads going in to this park for towing an RV?

[@christyevershappily4eversafter]

They are good, at least up to the Catawba falls campground. catawbafalls.com/

[@christyevershappily4eversafter]

I just came back from the reopening of the trail and made sure to check out the RV situation for you. The Roads are great for RV's and the parking lot is small, but they do have a section dedicated to RV's, campers and buses. However, if the parking lot gets crowded, cars will start to park in the RV sections, so you will want to arrive early to make sure you can get a spot.

[@ebbigorgeous]

Best tip: prepare to get wet lol, I’ve been planning on visiting a waterfall for a long time, their is always something that puts off the trip. I hate getting wet though, so I just might bring extra clothes along

[@christyevershappily4eversafter]

IKR! You only have to get drenched once or twice before preparing to get wet becomes a natural part of the packing process. LOL!

[@christyevershappily4eversafter]

Catawba Falls has been closed for 2 years for improvements and it is now open! Here's all the info you need to know about what has changed northcarolinatraveler.com/catawba-falls-to-reopen/

[@i_luv_hecklefish]

Unfortunately, Catawba Falls are presently closed now through Spring 2023. The forest service is doing work to make it more accessible for everyone. So I think it will be worth the wait. She is totally right about the bathroom. Glad I wasn't planning a picnic before I walked in. 😆 I immediately turned around walked out. I'd rather wet myself than have to inhale that odor any longer than I already had. 🤢

[@christyevershappily4eversafter]

I had hoped they would have fixed that stinky bathroom problem by now! 🤮 hopefully that will be added to their renovations for a less stinky 2023. 🤞

[@TheProjectHelpDesk]

Old Fart. I mean Old Fort is a fun. Probably should be the name of the bathroom. 🤣

[@christyevershappily4eversafter]

LOL! Yes, that would be a perfect name

[@WhatBlowsMyTurbo]

Damn, no standing on the damn...lol

[@christyevershappily4eversafter]

YOu're a dam fool if you do! ;P lol
