A Relaxing Stay at the King and Prince Resort

Punderson Manor State Park Lodge
We continued on our epic winter adventure last year to the state park lodge called Punderson Manor State Park Lodge. Hidden away beside a 150 acre glacial lake only 30 minutes East of Cleveland, Ohio, this park lodge has plenty to offer visitors who want to play golf on their 18-hole championship golf course, take … Continue reading
Gaylord Opryland Resort and Convention Center for Families
I have stayed at a lot of hotels. Pretty fabulous places all over the world with great amenities, amazing views, fabulous food, and awesome rooms. But the Gaylord Opryland Resort and Convention Center is still one of my very favorite places to stay. With 9 acres of lush gardens, trees, and a charming, shallow river inside … Continue reading

Pin ItGirlfriends Getaway to Marvelous Maryland!
Although we have discovered that many of the states we visit are radically different from our home state of Kentucky – think Arizona with mind boggling deserts and cactus – we actually felt very much at home on our girls’ trip to Maryland. Of course, Maryland has a beautiful coastline and mountains but Ellicott City, … Continue reading
Pin ItBack to Wonderful Little Sister Resort
Although we discovered Door County, Wisconsin for the first time in the winter, we have now visited during the summer twice and it’s impossible to say which is our favorite season, although I have to admit that there is a substantial contrast between the two. One thing that hasn’t changed, however, is our love for … Continue reading
