DH and I are looking at taking a small weekend trip (just us) in a few months. Where would you go? While Gatlinburg is on the table, we're open to other suggestions. We want something low key, not too far away (no further than Gatlinburg), not too expensive... good food, chance to play mini golf more than once, take some short hikes, etc... (hence the Gatlinburg thought). Suggestions?
Re: s/o vacations... weekend trips?
We do small weekend trips several times a year to reconnect. We've done Indy, Columbus, and Louisville.
The Smokies we usually save for longer trips so we can do more. After the drive we find it's hard to squeeze in all the activities we want to do without feeling rushed.
Usually we'll look for deals on activities & restaurants to decide what we're doing. Or even decide on the city based on deals we've been able to find.
Wherever you go... have fun!
