5 Sunsets from the Front Street Grill in Beaufort, North Carolina!

April 20, 2014

The Front Street Grill at Stillwater really stands out in Beaufort.

The food, the drink, and the service are all phenomenal. Then, there are the sunsets.

Beaufort’s sunsets are amazing from any vantage point, but when combined with a warm summer evening, a cool drink, and a spot on the lower deck of the Front Street Grill’s Rhum Bar, you have the makings of a perfect experience.  [Read more…]

Beaufort, North Carolina is one of our favorite get-away spots in the world.

Why?

Tons of reasons, and here are a few…

Beaufort is:

  • An easy drive from home
  • Friendly and welcoming
  • Relatively affordable
  • Pedestrian friendly
  • A mecca for great food and drink
  • Steeped in an island/Caribbean-type vibe

And, last but not least, Beaufort has amazing sunsets. [Read more…]

Margaritaville…A Great Place for the Kids?!?

Happy New Year!

We took a little of our own advice.

Since we couldn’t arrange that Christmas in the Caribbean this year, we are enjoying some time at the Dunes Village Resort in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina.

The Dunes has an indoor water park that is perfect for this time of year, keeps the kids engaged and laughing, and keeps the parents calm with a cool drink and five different hot tubs. The rooms are comfortable and inexpensive (during the winter, anyway). The wifi is strong, and even the rain outside is not spoiling anyone’s good mood. [Read more…]

Three Low Cost Winter Getaways!

Low cost winter getaways?!

Does such a thing exist?

If you’re thinking the Caribbean or the slopes of Aspen, no it doesn’t.

Epic winter getaways to warm and sunny places (or to popular ski resort areas) take some advanced planning – such trips also tend to be expensive.

For those of us in the Southeast though, many options exist for quick, inexpensive, and often times even warm winter getaways. Just look to our coast: the beaches and coastal towns of North Carolina, South Carolina, and Georgia hold many options. [Read more…]

November 24, 2013

We made our first ever trip to Jekyll Island, Georgia last weekend. We were extremely impressed and look forward to future visits!

This was a quick trip lasting just from Saturday afternoon until late Sunday morning. Traveling from Florida back to North Carolina, we needed a break and decided to try a stop along the Georgia coast. It was a great short break, and we have to recommend it to any lovers of our pristine southern coast. [Read more…]
