Spring Travel Deals

We're all sick of hearing the depressing news about the economy, so why not take a vacation? It may sound like the last feasible thing to do as we're all trying to cut down on spending. But with many travel destinations slashing prices and offering added value to their lodging, a quick getaway might be just the ticket to relax and recharge. Shenandoah National Park in Virginia, Deer Creek Resort and Conference Center in Ohio, Lake Quinault Lodge in Washington and Mesa Verde National Park in Colorado are destinations offering great specials this spring:


Shenandoah National ParkShenandoah National Park Lodging's "Early Bird Special" offers $104 room rate – more than 30 percent in savings – on traditional lodging at Skyland Resort and Big Meadows Lodge on Mondays through Thursdays and includes breakfast for two. Everyone comes to Shenandoah for the fall foliage, but locals in the area say spring – with the abundant wildflowers and no crowds – is the best time to visit this park.

And one of the best ways to visit Shenandoah National Park is with friends. For women, taking a trip with the girls can be the perfect way to escape the stresses of everyday life and come back feeling ready to take on the world again. This season, Shenandoah National Park Lodging is inviting women to grab a girlfriend, leave their Blackberries behind (okay, maybe not, but at least turn off work email!) and explore the serene panoramic views and unique wildlife that the park has to offer with the Girlfriend Getaway package.
