Your Next Summer Vacation Is Closer Than You Think

If you need a break but can’t decide on a travel destination, remember that the most restorative trips are often the least elaborate. Next time you need a simple reset, skip the packed itinerary and choose a domestic destination that lets you unplug and escape into nature.

Semiahmoo Resort Golf & Spa, Trademark Collection by Wyndham is a prime example of slow living done right. You’ll find this secluded Pacific Northwest retreat on a narrow stretch of land just 15 minutes from the Canadian border. The dining program skews hyper-local, with coursed wine dinners that highlight Washington State’s viticulture along with ingredients sourced from neighboring farms and fishermen. Explore the coastal setting by kayak, paddleboard, or bicycle, then wind down at the nightly bonfire. Choose a guest room with ocean views to get the most out of the picture-perfect setting.
