How To Plan A Post-Vaccine Upscale Family Getaway In New England

Published on April 6, 2021


The Spring and Summer seasons are almost here, coming with a strong desire to finally get outside and have a great Family Getaway In New England, or vacations. This is especially true since many of us haven’t been able to fully enjoy it since last year. COVID-19 has been a very challenging time for everyone, but the future is looking more promising every day with vaccines being rolled out and distributed to all segments of the population. In a few month’s time, it’s looking like the vaccine will be able to reduce the risk significantly for everyone.

For those who already have the vaccine, or are planning to get one in the very near future, this is great news as it means more freedom to plan getaways and adventures.

With this on all of our minds, many are already planning getaways and outdoor adventures. We’ve all been looking forward to stepping outside and enjoying activities. Families, couples, friends, and just about everyone are planning different types of trips to make these spring trips count.

However, there are still some things we should be considered as we plan our trips. Depending on the size of our group, our activities, and other factors, there are some ways to make sure we’re planning the best possible New England vacation with safety in mind.

Here are just a few ways we can plan the best possible New England getaway this Spring and Summer.

The Type Of Trip Matters – Family Getaway In New England

When planning your post-vaccine New England getaway with your family, the first step is naturally to decide on what type of trip is best for the occasion. While it might be tempting to let your mind run with all kinds of vacations and travel plans now that things are opening up, there are certain kinds of trips that are safer than others. For example, while people are getting vaccinated, there are certain parts of the world that are still keeping things closed until later in the year. Just as well, it’s still wise to try to be outdoors in the open air as much as possible to minimize risk. This means that an outdoor trip is one of the best choices for the inaugural post-vaccine trip.

When choosing the destination itself, it will be smart to pay close attention to the amenities and lodging available to ensure that even with the vaccine, courtesy and precaution for other guests can still be maintained.

Most of these precautions will include:

  • The destination of choice follows good cleaning and Covid-safe practices
  • The location can offer adequate space for the number of people
  • The activities everyone is taking part in offering enough space

These precautions kept in mind, an outdoor escape is one of the perfect choices for your getaway. The New England outdoors is a tremendous experience especially in the spring as the trees and flowers bloom, and outdoor sports begin again.

The Preserve Sporting Club not only offers an amazing outdoor experience filled with plenty of activities for your family getaway but also offers luxury accommodations for family and friends. There are plenty of cabins, accommodations, homes, vacation rentals, and other lodging choices offered to cater to any size family or group looking to have a memorable trip.

Choosing a Luxury Cabin and Other Vacation Rental Options – Family Getaway In New England

Choosing your accommodations for your trip is an important step in planning your trip, especially post-vaccine. The Preserve has many luxury cabins ranging in different types of amenities. There is the Hilltop Lodge, which offers impeccable luxurious services and prepared options, as well as smaller cabins for a more outdoorsy feel.

As mentioned, even when you have the vaccine, it’s important to maintain precautions and safe habits when taking your trip. We recommend ensuring that everyone in your party has had the vaccine and that all parties do their best to be courteous of their distance from others. We can accommodate everyone, and try to ensure that everyone is safe as things continue to unfold.

All of these activities, and more, are all in store for a New England escape and can make for an incredible choice for a first post-vaccine escape.
