The red cedar barrel is right in the middle of wine country, with views of a number of vineyards and surrounding wildlife including bald eagles, Canadian geese, ducks, herons, and red-tailed foxes.

It's certainly a unique way to enjoy some nature. All electricity within the barrel-cabin is solar powered while a water pump powers the outdoor sink and shower. Classic rental amenities include a grill, firepit and even a 9.4-foot-long rowboat to paddle down the creek with.

There are a number of these barrel cabins available so you and your friends can each camp out in your own cedar barrel, or meet other wine lovers who had the same idea.

During a time whencountless people are leaving the citydue to rising costs and remote work's new normal, many are jonesing for their first real vacation in over two years.

A road trip to a unique destination is a great way to do something different without having to deal with airports or long train rides.

While it may not quite be a barrel of monkeys, having a barrel of wine to slumber in seems like a fantastic time in its own right.
