With the Appalachian Mountains spanning several states, there are a lot of unique destinations out there. Valentine’s Day is just around the corner and now is the perfect time to plan that romantic getaway.
If quiet, more secluded places are your thing, then maybe a stay at a cozy cabin is ideal. If busier, action-packed places are preferred, then booking your stay at a well-known hotel is a better fit.
