Anniversary

Hello.  I'm sorry I haven't posted in so long but I still lurk. ;-)  I am wondering if any of you have ideas or favorite places (within driving distance) that you think would be good to go for our anniversary.  It's in a few weeks and we just want a weekend or an overnight.  TIA

Re: Anniversary

  • We went up to North Conway, NH for one of our anniversaries. Cute B&Bs, hiking, Mt. Washington, outlet shopping, and some good restaurants. I can look up the B&B we stayed at if you want; they made amazing breakfasts.
    I'd rather be rock climbing or playing volleyball

  • We got married in Mystic, Ct and plan on going back next year for our Anniversary. There is the aquarium and Seaport during the day and Foxwoods is nearby for some nighttime fun. There are also places to stay in all price levels. Happy Anniversary!

  • I also love the n. conway/jackson area.

    we used to go there for our birthdays and stay at the Christmas farm Inn.

    This year we may go out to Western MA and stay at Porches Inn, hike Mt. Greylock and check out art galleries and shops.

    Newport, RI is also nice.  I stayed at the Inn at newport Beach, and it is walking distance to the cliffwalk and the beach is across the street.

  • Portland Maine is also really charming.  We went there many years ago and loved it.  There are lots of little inns and wonderful restaurants and shops.  It is also right on the ocean so you could do the beach during the day. We stayed at an inn with a spa and got a couples massage which was really fun.  Unfortunately I cannot seem to remember the name of the place but if I do, I will send it along to you.

  • You guys have great ideas.  Thank you and please keep them coming.  :-)  Over the years we have been to many of the places that you have named.  All great but I keep searching for something new.  May have to do one again.
  • BFF LOVES N. Conway.

    Portsmouth is kind of cute, but we only did a day trip there on our way back from Maine. 

    I also like Newport. And  of course, NYC. 

  • We did a trip last month to the Cape, we stayed at the Carpe Diem in Provincetown, and LOVED it.  They have an amazing warm breakfast in the morning, I loved the poppyseed crepes and danishes.  In the evening they do a wine and cheese hour and you can either mingle with other guests or choose a cozy spot on the patio.

    They also have a spa on-site with complimentary steam room and jacuzzi as well as various spa packages for an additional cost.  Each room was named after a writer and had adorable personal touches.

    We had dinner at the Lobster Pot and Victor's and both were delicious, I definitely liked Victor's better though.  We rented bikes one day and rode around the town and to the beach, they also have whale-watching and Commercial street was great (we went to a hysterical drag show one night!).

  • The White Barn Inn in Kennebunkport - the most amazing meal I have had in this area. Not too shabby in terms of a hotel, either :)

  • Cape Ann/Ipswich area is nice.  We were going to go there for our anniversary - close enough to home so it wasn't a big fuss, but far enough that we were able to feel like we were on vacation
  • We spent the night at the Millenium Hotel in Boston because that was where we stayed the night of our wedding. 

    A cool place especially if you like beer is the Woodstock Inn in Woodstock, NH.  It is a cute B&B, they brew their own beer and they make a killer breakfast!!
