I think I speak for all Philadelphians when I say we could use a little fall vacation outside of the city. Here are some unique Airbnb’s in the region to ground yourself and recenter:

Refresh yourself with soothing mountain scenery in this chic home featuring a kitchen and dining room, a gas fireplace, an outdoor hot tub, and 30 acres of woodlands to explore 🌳

Where: Newport, PA (approx. 2 hour, 24 minute drive from Philly) Beds: 4 bedrooms, 6 beds (sleeps 10) Cost: $435 per night

Who said vacations have to break the bank? Inhale some fresh air at this quiet stone cottage, knowing that your wallet is as happy as you are. This garden home features a kitchenette, HDTV and high speed Wi-Fi, and a small desk space. Find solace away from the city noise and decompress with a loved one (or by yourself!)

Where: Easton, PA (approx. 1 hour, 26 minute drive from Philly) Beds: 1 bedroom, (sleeps 2) Cost: $100 per night

Chill in a rustic yet modern home sitting atop a mountain stream. Enjoy relaxing amenities like the fireplace and outdoor hot tub, and take advantage of local shopping and dining. With Hershey Park and Amish country just 45 minutes away, there are plenty of fun things to explore on your trip ☕️

Where: Wernersville, PA (approx. 1 hour, 24 minute drive from Philly) Beds: 2 bedrooms, 3 beds (sleeps 4) Cost: $250 per night

Gather a bunch of family and friends and step into a fairytale-esque mansion built in the 1860s. You’ll find everything you need in this charming castle from kitchen appliances to board games and outdoor recreation on a 2.4 acre property 🤩

Where: Myerstown, PA (approx. 2 hour drive from Philly) Beds: 8 bedrooms, (sleeps 21) Cost: $597 per night

Why stay on the ground when you could nest in a tree house, surrounded by nature’s melodies? Explore dense forests, local antique shopping, and get that TLC from nearby Woodloch spa. This elevated tree house comes with a fireplace, board games, a stocked kitchen, a cedar barrel hot tub, a record player, and a luxurious clawfoot tub 🛀🏽
