Salamander Resort and Spa Middleburg is a stone's throw away from the bustle of the nation's capital — Washington, D.C. I recently visited the property and was charmed by the beautiful property and incredible spa. I would highly recommend planning a staycation getaway to this property where families, couples and solo travelers alike will be pampered and rejuvenated by a weekend away.

Whether it is winter, spring, summer, or fall, there is no bad time for a weekend getaway from Washington, DC. These are my four options for the best weekend getaways from Washington, DC. Eastern Shore, MD, Middleburg, VA, Washington, VA, and Rehoboth, DE are my go-to's. You can always use an escape from the city. Fortunately for you, there are plenty of options. Between an hour to three hours, via car, from Washington, DC, you can reach the ocean, the bay, or the country. These are easy drives. Three of which are family-friendly. Pack up the car and take a road trip; whether you are looking for a romantic getaway or a family getaway, there are plenty of options.

Located in the pastoral rolling hills of the Blue Ridge Mountains—just an easy drive outside Washington, DC—is Virginia’s horse country. Insiders know this region offers some of the country’s best equine experiences, yet you don’t need to own a horse, or even ride one, to get an unforgettable glimpse into Virginia’s equestrian culture. Between stately wineries, curated boutiques, historic inns, and equestrian grandeur, Middleburg “the nations hunt and horse capital”, is a perfect destination for those seeking a respite from the ordinary and a peek into this luxurious world.
