Hello beautiful Redditors! My husband and I are planning a vacation for the first week in October, we live in the US, and due to the thing which is not to be named or this post will be removed, we have made the sad decision to not even try to leave the country this year. I would rather plan an awesome vacation that I can (mostly) safely assume we'll actually get to take... the problem being i haven't spent much time looking into domestic vacations because i always assumed we'd be saving those for when we're older. But here we are! So..
we'll have about 10 days total, we are definitely planning on flying and will be departing from either Atlanta or Charlotte, NC. We plan to rent a car, and assume we'll move around some (as in, we don't need to fly somewhere and stay in one spot for 10 days or just do day trips) usually we like to try to hit around three separate locations and spend 2 or 3 days exploring. We are okay with flying into one airport and leaving from another.
We enjoy being outdoors, hiking, awesome nature scenery and/or wildlife. We do not like big cities, but love funky little towns. I'm hoping things will be more open than they are now because we do love to eat and drink! Local restaurants, bars, wineries, cideries are all a plus. We do not need nightlife.
We aren't planning to camp, so we'll need lodges or hotels (preferably small and local and not a chain) Budget isn't a huge deal as we usually plan on an international vacation so I don't assume we'll be able to spend more than that.
The only two locations we've discussed are:
- Yellowstone - my questions are is early October too late in the season, will it be too cold and snowy? And what else is there to do in the area?
- A road trip up the Northern California/Oregon coast. I think the scenery here would be beautiful, but are there a decent number of small cool towns to break it up? And is 10 days too much for this drive?
We have seen the east coast from Virginia to Florida, all of Southern California, and Las Vegas and the surrounding area. So I hope you beautiful people have some ideas!!
