We are big advocates that you do not need to spend much money or travel far when you want to get away for an adventure.
Perhaps you are a working family like us and have a limited PTO day, which makes frequent travel unrealistic. This is when weekend trips come to a rescue.
There is much to explore locally to fill the gaps between your destinations. Check out these these weekend getaways from New York and New Jersey, which we loved and would recommend.
