Road Trips
These destinations are within driving distance of major cities, which makes getting away for a weekend easier than taking a flight.
Asheville, North Carolina: Tucked in the Blue Ridge Mountains about four hours from Atlanta and Raleigh, and even closer to Charlotte, Knoxville and Columbia, Asheville has a great arts scene, plus laid-back dining and craft breweries.
Lake Geneva, Wisconsin: This year-round favorite is all about the views and historic mansions along its scenic path that surrounds the 21-mile lake.
Barnard, Vermont: If you’re looking to unwind, reconnect with nature, and eat well, Twin Farms is the perfect pick for any season.
San Luis Obispo, California: Right between San Francisco and Los Angeles lies the Golden State's other wine country, Paso Robles. San Luis Creek Lodge is a budget-friendly and stylish home base.

US route on the Rocky Mountaineer
There’s something nostalgic, cinematic, and inherently cozy about watching the world blur by on a train. Known primarily for its Canadian routes, the Rocky Mountaineer has a rail journey in the American West. The two-day experience takes you from the Moab to Denver, with highlights including Ruby Canyon, the Continental Divide, and Mount Garfield. Get away for the weekend, or add it to a longer exploration of the American West.
Cozy Travel Tips
The secret to a great getaway isn’t just about the destination, but it’s what you do when you get there. These small details can transform your trip from just another busy weekend to a true getaway.
Plan downtime: Bring a good book, your journal, or some cards. Run a bath. Take a walk. Stargaze. Embrace the slow pace.
Pack layers: Think chunky knits, scarves, and rain gear. Don’t forget a bathing suit for a potential hot tub moment.
Go local: Support small businesses, farms, wineries, and artisans. Getting a sense of the local offerings makes for great memories and keepsakes to remind you of your trip.
