The Chesapeake Bay beach club is a nice, quick overnight getaway for adults. Small but pretty pool area, nice restaurant, spa. Should be less than 90 minutes from close in suburbs.

Farther, Salamander, Tides Inn, Inn at Perry Cabin, Hyatt in Cambridge.

We go into the woods.
So, it depends on what you want. Forest or Coast.

Baltimore or Shenandoah for an overnight.

Kent Island or Harpers Ferry is nice if you just want a day trip.

quickest is Old Town Alexandria, in a really nice hotel toom. It's so relaxing to lounge around at the shops and on the waterfront, and it feels like a different area.

Or a day trip to Shenandoah National Park. Or can stop just short of there and hike and/or camp at Elizabeth's Furnace.

When you just need a break, want to leave for a night or two (or more.) Can be a couples location, or bring the kids or whatever. Where do you go for an unplanned refresh?
