Tis the season to venture outside to view fall’s fabulous foliage. Fortunately, you don’t have to spend a ton of money to soak up the season’s best scenery. With a little effort you can score substantial savings on leaf-peeping vacation packages offered from from coast-to-coast.
Some popular options include:
New York: Upstate New York is home to one of the country’s most impressive leaf-peeping vacation destinations—-Adirondack Park. Spanning more than six million acres, the park is filled with massive trees whose leaves are set ablaze in magnificent colors each fall. Best of all, there’s no admission fee to the park, so leaf peeping is free. This gives you extra cash to spend at area lodgings which offer plenty of fall foliage packages. For example, Mirror Lake Inn Resort and Spa in Lake Placid features super savings on packages that include accommodations, meals and access to kayaks for use in Mirror Lake.
California: Mammoth Lakes is probably best known as a popular ski resort town, but in October and November the area becomes an autumnal hot spot. Visitors are able to examine the flaming fall foliage up close while hiking or get a bird’s-eye view of the bursts of color on a scenic gondola ride. Look for fall color vacation packages offered at area hotels, including the Westin Monache. The packages typically feature accommodations and breakfast, plus a fall foliage map with driving directions to some of the best viewing sites and buy-one-get-one-free coupons for gondola rides.
New Hampshire: Autumn in New Hampshire is truly spectacular. However, you don’t have to break the bank taking it all in. From now through December 1st you can take advantage of a Fall Weekend Getaway deal being offered by Ashworth by the Sea in Hampton, New Hampshire. The sale knocks 20% off a two-night stay and is available on all room types.
