Book a quick overnight escape

Even if you haven’t made a plan yet, you can probably find a spot for a quick overnight escape, if you go during the week.

  • The forecast looks decidedly April-showery. But if you want to go camping, not to worry. See if you can snag a nearby campsite. Even if it looks to be warm and sunny during the day, just remember to pack extra-warm gear for nighttime.
  • If you're up for a longer drive and you can grab a last-minute reservation, these Oregon campgrounds are worth it. (And if you find yourself in Portland along the way, don’t miss these foodie favorite restaurants.)
  • Change your camping plans from rustic to luxe by booking a stay in a yurt or “glampsite.”
  • Want to cuddle with furry critters? Check out one of these great Pacific Northwest farm stays.
  • Enjoy bike rides, playing in the sand and long walks on the beach at this award-winning beach town.
  • Scenic road trip itineraries around Washington provide inspiration for a quick spring escape.
