4 Perfect Spots for a Spring Getaway

Summer is just around the corner, but that doesn’t mean you should wait to get away. Spring is a great time to travel, so we scoped out the best spots for you and your friends to spend a weekend this month.

Getaway House
Catskill, NY

Hop over the border to New York for a private hideaway deep in the forest, located five hours away from Ottawa. Wake up to the birds chirping, and even cook on their fire pit for a true outdoor living experience; it’s the perfect slice of heaven for those seeking a rest from reality.

 

Fairmont Le Chateau Frontenac
Quebec City, QC

This iconic hotel brings you a mix of rich history with modern innovations. Explore the Old City, famous for its European appeal, or go on a food or brewery tour, and check out the picturesque waterfront while you’re at it. The city is just over four hours away, and it’s a wonderful romantic destination to check out with your partner this spring.

 

Kabania
Notre-Dame-de-la-Merci, QC

Adventure off into the wilderness in Notre-Dame-de-la-Merci and immerse yourself in nature. Book a stay in their unique treetop cabins at this remote hotel located 3 hours away, and unwind with their spa, dog sledding, and beautiful outdoor trails.

 

Scandinave Spa
Mont Tremblant, QC

Escape from the stress of your daily life with a relaxing spa experience only two hours away. Indulge in the sounds and sights of nature, along with saunas and Nordic waterfalls, nestled right in the Laurentian forest along the Diable River. Take advantage of the many activities at Tremblant including the ski hill, their Spring concert series (Mar. 23 – Apr. 21), and world class restaurants and parks.
