Vacation destinations between MA & GA?

[peainapod]

Need some equidistant vacation destination spots (driving only--no flying) for Ma-Ga. 3 kids under 3.

PA has a lot of cool stuff.. Hersey Park, Dutch Wonderland. Are you driving from MA to GA and looking for things to do on the way down? Or are you just looking to vacation somewhere between those 2 States?

Kings dominion is on 95 about 40 miles north of Richmond so not out of the way. Lots of places to stay around Richmond.

I would second the Outer Banks, NC. We rent a townhouse on the beach and have driven several times from NY and love it there.

You didn't say where in GA the point would be to try to compute being "equidistant", so I looked at Atlanta to Boston.

I'd go with Virginia Beach, since you have three under three. DC is fun for older kids. There is a good zoo, but most of the museums and other attractions aren't going to be interesting to that age group. Same is true for Colonial Williamsburg, which is four hours south of DC, unless it's changed since I've been there. Busch Gardens is nearby, and that might be more fun for kids than the Colonial Williamsburg attractions. The Outer Banks is a long trip from MA (over 12 hours), even though the mileage is about equidistant if you compare Boston and Atlanta...the last part of the drive is very long coming from the north.

We are a MA-GA family too! Grew up in MA but couldn't take the cold anymore. We live in GA now but husband's family still in MA. Last Thansgiving we rented a beach house in Sandbridge, Virginia Beach. It was almost exactly 10 hours driving for each family. Area was lovely, but the homes were older.

We considered Outer Banks as well, that would have been 10 hours for us but about 12 for the family so we went further north to make it a little more even. Outer Banks is fabulous though! We love it there.
