About Getaway Mavens
You’ve been there, done that at overrun tourist attractions. Robert Frost’s The Road Less Traveled resonates with you. You seek adventure, but want a bit of luxury at the end of the day. You are drawn to the oddball, curious, absurd stuff. You enjoy kicking back with a glass vino or craft-draft at sundown, overlooking the river or lake on which you paddled just hours earlier.
You appreciate real, slow meals with ingredients that come from local farms cooked by inventive chefs. You want exclusive, not snooty; unique, not cookie-cutter; and most of all, you refuse to be one in a crowd of sightseers.
