NGPR: Mid-Atlantic East Coast getaways

in Trying to Get Pregnant

DH and I are looking to get away for 5 days or so this summer but don't want to do Virginia Beach or Ocean City bc we prefer things a little more laid back. We love the outdoors, rustic is okay, beach is fine...Right now we are looking into Cape May. Any ideas for MD, VA, PA or DE?

TIA!

    Bethany or Rehoboth beaches would be a little less crazed than Ocean City.  You could also do St. Michael's or one of the other smaller eastern shore towns.  Also WV would be great for hiking and maybe some relaxing tubing!

    Come to Richmond and visit me! LOL

    Have you thought about the Blue Ridge Mountains? There are a ton of B&B's and wineries in VA.

    Dewey or Rehoboth in DE or you can go to OBX, NC.  I've done both from DC.

    Though be careful in Dewey--there'll be a LOT of young,  VERY drunk people there during the summer!

    If you're looking at the Jersey Shore, I'd check out Margate- it's a bit more sophisticated and calmer than Ocean City (which is a dry town so none of the restaurants serve alcohol), but it's close to Atlantic City if you want a night or two in the casinos. 

    I also recommend the wineries of Northern VA- my favorite is Tarara outside of Leesburg (I used to live in Leesburg so I know it well!)- they have lots of festivals in the summer,and the grounds are spectacular!

    Charlottesville, VA is also really nice.  DH and I did a weekend there when we were engaged.  Lots of wineries and B&Bs!

    Dewey and Rehoboth get packed full of singles and drunks -- Bethany would be better if you're looking to relax and have some quiet.

    Fenwick is this tiny little part between Bethany Beach and OC Maryland. It's awesome because you can go to Fenwick park for the beach (unless you get a place right on the beach) and you can go into OC for the restaurants.

    I agree that Dewey isn't the best for a relaxing vibe.
