looking for east coast spring trip

Hi all --

We are looking for a bit of a late-planned spring trip... we had a baby last year and have been cooped up too long need to get something on the calendar for preferably the month of March... now I know that is soon and we may be paying the price for not planning ahead, but just looking for any suggestions.

Our details:

- live outside philadelphia, looking to stay within a 2-day ish drive. florida is doable b/c 95 is so easy...but generally if we could keep it at 1k miles or under that would be best

- we really like state & national parks

- obviously looking for some decent weather.... doesn't need to be beach



all suggestions very welcome - thank you!

  • The Outer Banks can be nice then - unfortunately it can also be windy and cold. We love Frisco Woods Campground in Frisco - great soundside sites with fantastic sunsets. Very low key, but great beach and lots to drive around and look at ... also a much more interesting drive to get there than all the way down 95....

    Disney is great with an infant! They're free and you still get to do all of the fun things that you want to do. :-)

    But, Florida is too fair. I'd say to the OP - go as far south as you can hoping for warmer weather.

    X2 on all the above... All Great warmer spots that are not over 1000 miles from us.. Disney is just over 1150 miles from lower Bucks County....
