[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think it depends what you’re looking for.
We love Rehoboth. It’s less than 3 hours drive. We usually eat out once a day and at home/or picnic  twice a day. 
Our bar is low for food though. We go to seafood places but the kids also like pizza, tenders etc, which we allow, it’s their vacation too. We don’t get fast food on vacation.

Sigh.  Here we go again.  It's rarely less than 3 hours from anywhere in the DMV worth living, especially not in the summer unless you leave and return at odd hours.  And it's not that great of a beach either.  And the food is just ok -- and overpriced.[/quote]

This whining makes me laugh. I've been going to Rehoboth my entire life and I remember when the drive took *much* longer with toll collection at the toll booths at the bridge (and less developed highways and infrastructure, etc). It improved when EZ pass came along at the bridge, then even better when they got rid of the toll booths entirely. The delays at the bridge when I was a kid were brutal. Also the food/restaurant scene in Rehoboth has evolved dramatically for the better over the decades.

Anyway, it rarely takes me longer than 3 hrs. Mostly 2:30-2:45 (and faster in the off season). I go there year-round (family house). Yes, it makes sense to avoid the true peak times, but going at "odd hours" is not required.

"from anywhere in the DMV worth living" - you sound insufferable.
