We are a family with 4 children
Ages 1, 6, 9 and 11

We take a 10-14 day trip every summer

Did panama last year and 2 years ago we did a 2 week east coast road trip from NYC to Miami and back up.

Looking for a nice interesting place this year, with lots of attractions within 1-2 hour drive. I'm ok with shipping double wrapped meals etc.

Looking to rent a nice villa with a pool, not really looking to cram into a hotel

All recommendations will be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Lancaster has pizza and bbq by the shul and NH has a "cafe" at PMR. Basically not much.

Check out the NH Master thread for activities.

Thinking of a national park trip this summer, Sunday-Thursday.

Kids are 2-11, so not going to be doing any major hiking.

Arches+Bryce+Zion?
Yellowstone+Tetons?
Yellowstone+Glacier?
Or?
