The downtown areas are pretty cheesy, but they can be pretty fun. We usually rent a cabin outside of town. We always feel so relaxed there, and we both think that area is so beautiful. I definitely recommend going to Cade's Cove for some great views.</p> <p>If you are going in January though it might be pretty cold, and you might have to worry about bad weather on your drive. I think is it around a 4 hour drive from Charlotte. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/romantic-trip-in-southeastern-us#post-1670382 Sat, 31 May 2014 10:33:52 +0000 fancyfunction 1670382@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We're going to Charleston for a few days this July - never been before! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/romantic-trip-in-southeastern-us#post-1670370 Sat, 31 May 2014 10:26:09 +0000 BelugaBean 1670370@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@babynumber1: We wouldn't be going until January. We went last time in March and it was almost too humid then. :happy: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/romantic-trip-in-southeastern-us#post-1670344 Sat, 31 May 2014 10:05:31 +0000 blackbird 1670344@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We used to live in Savannah and it's a really nice area :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/romantic-trip-in-southeastern-us#post-1670341 Sat, 31 May 2014 10:04:45 +0000 babynumber1 1670341@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>If it's a quick weekend trip we also like the Boone, Blowing Rock area. Lots of fun. Also Asheville with a day trip to Biltmore. </p> <p>We also love savannah and charleston. Savannah is super hit this time of year though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/romantic-trip-in-southeastern-us#post-1670311 Sat, 31 May 2014 09:41:55 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 1670311@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Sketchbook: my MIL's cabin is right outside of Brevard! It's a pretty town. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/romantic-trip-in-southeastern-us#post-1670222 Sat, 31 May 2014 08:16:40 +0000 KayKay 1670222@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Asheville has tons of really cute B&amp;Bs that might make the trip a little more special -- and most of them are close to and/or walking distance from the restaurants downtown.</p> <p>Plus, the Biltmore has (not terrible) wine tasting. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/romantic-trip-in-southeastern-us#post-1670188 Sat, 31 May 2014 07:33:45 +0000 BelugaBean 1670188@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Sketchbook: Good ideas! I forgot about Biltmore and Asheville which might be a good idea. I think DH has always wanted to see Biltmore! </p> <p>I now also remember that we had wanted to go to Amelia Island at one point and that's not too bad (5 hour drive). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/romantic-trip-in-southeastern-us#post-1670183 Sat, 31 May 2014 07:28:53 +0000 Mrs. Sketchbook 1670183@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Lots of places in NC if that isn't too old hat for you! We are in NC today for my birthday. Trying to decide whether to go to Asheville, Hot Springs, or Brevard for the night. </p> <p>I love Charleston and Savannah! Beaufort is supposed to be pretty too.</p> <p>How about the 30A area? I've heard so much good stuff about it! </p> <p>You could get a cheap flight to NOLA? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/romantic-trip-in-southeastern-us#post-1670178 Sat, 31 May 2014 07:25:41 +0000 BelugaBean 1670178@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@rachiecakes: We definitely had a great time since we were in Charleston for about three days for our wedding and then in Savannah about five days. I know DH absolutely loved Savannah and we'd like to go there when it's a little cooler so we can walk around more.</p> <p>I will add that we don't care if it's cold and we're at the beach. We're both hot natured people so cooler weather makes for better walking weather than heat and humidity for us! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/romantic-trip-in-southeastern-us#post-1670176 Sat, 31 May 2014 07:23:28 +0000 rachiecakes 1670176@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Was just about to suggest Savannah &amp; Charleston! Went on a romantic vaca 10+ years ago and still dream about going back. So beautiful. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/romantic-trip-in-southeastern-us#post-1670173 Sat, 31 May 2014 07:21:17 +0000 BelugaBean 1670173@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DH and I have talked about taking a trip, just the two of us, possibly next January before there's a possibility I'm pregnant. I'd like for it to be romantic but we also like to have things to do (sightseeing, good food, etc). Right now, we're leaning towards Savannah because there's enough to do, it's romantic, and it's where we had our honeymoon. But I was wondering if there were any other ideas? We've also thought about Charleston since it's where we got married. I would love to go to Maine or something but we're from the Charlotte metro and would like maybe half a day drive at most (to cut down on travel time during the trip and to not be too terribly far from LO). </p>
