Nearby Resorts?

[ShellyCW]

Can anyone tell me if there are any nearby resorts? We're looking to go away for the weekend and want a quiet resort with spa, indoor swimming, gameroom, one or two inhouse restaurant/bars, etc. I tried doing a search on the internet, but that is mostly useless. Any suggestions will be warmly welcomed.

Is it a trip with or without kids?

How close are you looking for? Within the greater Southern Maryland area, or just within a 3 hour drive?

One great resort area is Berkeley Springs, West Virginia. Great little resort area with lots of spas, restaurants, and shopping.

Berkeley Springs WV. Check Coolfont. The whole town is full of spas and antiques stores. Beautiful area. Try Tara's for great food.

Definitely no kids, hopefully not many at the resort either.
Anything up to 3 or 3 & 1/2 hours away is our max.

Thanks

Good idea! Great minds think alike. Check out the link in my post above or click here.

Tara's is the BOMB! I've eaten there several times and it is ALWAYS first rate. And desserts to die for.

Well, not exactly a resort, but the five gables inn and spa is a very nice weekend retreat.. especially now that its colder because you can now utilize the in room fireplaces.. HIGHLY recommended for couples looking to get away.

Its near your limit but check out things in the Blue Ridge Mountains in VA. Virginia has a tourism website but I cant for the life of me remember it.

I guess Ceasar Poconos Resorts in PA is out of question?

Well, I'm originally from right outside the Poconos. I want to explore the MarVA/WV area if possible. My husband just doesn't want to drive 5 hours.

How about Five Gables Inn & Spa at St.Michaels on the MD eastern shore?

Here's another one - The Spa at Kingsmill in Williamsburg, VA.
