Things are getting wild again for Britt Westbourne on General Hospital, but in real life, her portrayer, Kelly Thiebaud, wanted the opposite: no scheming, no heartbreak, no chaos. Just trees and quiet, with a dog named Whiskey and the sound of wind instead of hospital monitors. She took off for a solo trip up near Nevada City and the Sierras, the kind of place where time slips a little and the air feels clean enough to start over.General Hospital star finds peace in the pines View this post on Instagram Instagram PostOn Instagram, Kelly Thiebaud wrote, “Alone in the woods might be my new favorite thing. So thankful for my trip to Nevada City. This cabin is so special. @lakehouseheaven I’m obsessed with you.” The video that was attached could make anyone want to pack a bag. It was a montage of clips and still shots showing the beautiful fall foliage as she spent time with Whiskey. She enjoyed a relaxing moment in the hot tub and even drank hot chocolate in the great outdoors, clearly enjoying her life and vacation choice.Fans flooded the comments, thrilled to see her this content. @patricia.guin.750 asked, “Where is this? Beautiful foliage, and cute puppy.” @leicha.greer.howell shared, “I LOVED The Nightingale!! One of my favs!!! So happy you’re back on GH!!” and @kamilahalexander added, “Awww good for YOU girly. Looks beautiful & peaceful.” Even the cabin owners, @lakehouseheaven, chimed in: “The hot chocolate with Baileys! Hero.”You could feel the affection in every reply — fans happy she found a little peace, happy she’s back on General Hospital, and maybe just a little jealous of the view. Out there among the pines, Kelly Thiebaud didn’t just take a trip; she pressed pause. And judging by that glow, she might not hit play again for a while.Fans Feel the CalmGeneral Hospital's Britt talking to Jack. | Image Source: ABCMeanwhile, GH fan, @rachelware, simply declared, “Cabin life!” followed by @andreamware, who added, “The best!!!!” The comments section became a forest of warmth and recognition. @melissa_woodruff3 wrote, “Ahhh looks amazing!!

Hero.” @meckmaher agreed, “Perfect! The house, your dog, the drink, and a great novel! (Love Kristin Hannah) Enjoy the peace!”Many followers loved that the trip seemed to mirror Britt’s own ongoing rediscovery of self on screen. @emilinab1 said, “Living your best life. Love this for you. You deserve all the beautiful things,” while @barbara_latam noted, “Nevada City is pure heaven. Has a very Hallmark Christmas movie vibe during the holidays!”By the end of the post, it was clear that Thiebaud’s retreat wasn’t just a break — it was a recharge. Alone in the woods, she found what so many fans wish they could: a little quiet, a lot of coffee, and a reminder that sometimes peace isn’t about getting away from the world — it’s about finding your way back to yourself.
