Where to go for 2 nights on East Coast
My husband and I have a one-year old and have the opportunity to get away for the first time without the baby for 2 nights the second weekend in November. I would love to get any advice you have on locations. We are looking for:
* Someplace close to Washington, DC (up to 3 hour flight) and direct, if possible.
* A nice hotel (we are willing to splurge a bit on this one since we don't get out often anymore)
* Could be a city or small town, but with good restaurants and great scenery.
Thanks so much for all your help!

Philadelphia could be very interesting for 2 days; there is plenty to do.
Montreal might also be an idea; it would be about a 2 hour flight. My husband and I had a great time there last December.
And, of course, there is always New York.

what about Berkley Springs, WV??
you could drive there, maybe 1.5 to 2 hours from DC, depending on where you live. they have so many nice B&B's and the whole town thrives around the hotsprings and spa/massage scene. it's a small town, but very artsy/folksy with some cute little restaurants. by not spending on airfare, you could put that money toward a nicer room and some massages and meals.

Charlottesville makes for a lovely 2 day trip and there are a couple of beautiful resort hotels there.
What about NYC? The shuttle (or Amtrak) are easy as pie and lots to see and do here.
Kind of depends on what you'd like to do/see -- do you just want to relax? or go?
