Great midwestern getaway??
Hey Ladies!
I'm hoping to surprise DH with a vacation for our anniversary/just because you're awesome 
He is my hero, and does so much for me that I want to take him away for a few days. We live in Indianapolis, and since our anni is the end of March, it's right smack dab in the middle of Spring Break 
So.......probably needs to be within driving distance. I've been looking at flights and it seems like anywhere I look, the prices are double the normal price...and I'm really trying to do this on the cheap.
We generally like smaller towns, or small-town feel, where we can relax for a few days. Does anyone have any suggestions??? We normally go to Nashville, TN for short vacays, but I really wanted to do something different...just for him! But, I'm at a loss...everywhere I think of is either a REALLY long drive, or could possibly still be under snow at that time Anyone have ideas of small towns or areas that I'm not thinking of that will be nice at the end of March/beginning of April????
Thanks girls!!!
Re: Great midwestern getaway??
I thought about Mackinac Island, but that might be too far. In MI there is also Traverse City which I've heard is beautiful.
Not necessarily mid-west, but the Finger Lakes in New York are beautiful and I think there are about 9 hours away (not too close, but not too far).
Ha ha! Great minds do think alike!
I live in Traverse City and it's a popular tourist destination, but more so in the summer, unless you are into winter sports! We just had a comedy Festival and have a huge film fest here in the summer, but not much happening in March (that's why we are escaping to someplace warm!). Mackinaw Island is shut down this time of year, but also a GREAT place to visit in the summer!
For a small town get-away in March I would recommend Ashville, NC
Seraphina--
As I'm looking at all of these options, I'm checking out Asheville, NC. I'm trying to compare prices of places/things, etc. Where is the best part of town to stay (close to attractions, etc)?
