Girlfriend Getaways

Sometimes, you need to take a step back from your life and just escape with your girls! Take the time to relax and reevaluate, with your main priority to simply have fun. Here are some destinations that cater to pampering their guests.

1. Silicon Valley, CA

“Along with beautifully manicured spots like the Courtyard Garden, long lines of trees shade walkways, and stretches of grass offer traveling families just the right setting for little ones to run off some steam. Be sure to pack a swimsuit, even in the middle of February; the heated outdoor pool and hot tub are a relaxing option day or night.” -Dana Rebmann. Full article here…

2. Monticello, VA

“Upon entering the intimate 48-room mansion, my sister and I felt like we were visiting a (very well off) friend’s country estate instead of checking into a hotel. Over 100 years old, with a rather checkered past, Keswick Hall is ‘one lady who’s aged marvelously well.'” -Janice Nieder. Full article here…

3. St. Simon’s Island, GA

“I am constantly amazed at how many lovely islands are tucked away along the southern coast of the United States. Unique, beautiful places, many of which are still undiscovered and unspoiled by tourism. The Golden Isles, strewn along the quiet waters of the Georgia coast like the jewels in a priceless necklace comprise several enchanting barrier islands, including Jekyll Island, Sea Island, Little St. Simons Island, St. Simons Island and the mainland city of Brunswick.” -Jan Ross.

4. Jackson Hole, WY

“Jackson Hole is an art town, collectors fly in, and art shows like the Western Design Conference and auctions are held throughout the year. In Jackson Hole, there is natural beauty all around you. In the Grand Tetons, you can para glide with Jackson Hole Paragliding or make a trek with Jackson Hole Wildlife Safaris with your telephoto lens for an unforgettable trip to Yellowstone National Park.” -Maralyn Hill.

5. Lake Tahoe, NV

“Entering our sophisticated, mountain suite retreat, we found comfy leather armchairs awaiting us in front of a gas fireplace, two cloud-like queen beds with tempting, pillow top mattresses, and a bank of sliding glass doors which opened to a huge private outdoor terrace, making it easy to understand why The Ritz-Carlton, Lake Tahoe is the first Forbes Four-Star and AAA Five Diamond resort in the Lake Tahoe area.” -Janice Nieder.
