The Three Day Weekend – Your Ticket to Winter Fun

Driving home from work last night, I couldn’t help but notice my neighbor’s Christmas tree shyly peeking through the front curtains, like a middle-schooler waiting for his que to come back out on stage.  It’s moments like this that I realize just how quickly time passes.  I mean, wasn’t Christmas just last week? 

I guess you could say I don’t have a very good sense of time, and while this can sometimes be a good thing (like while I’m working out at the gym), it can also put me behind the eight ball when it comes to making plans.  I probably wouldn’t have even realized that President’s Week and Valentine’s Day were a meagre three weeks away, had it not been for my two sons circling the dates on my calendar and writing “3-DAY WEEKEND!” in bright, VERY BRIGHT, fuchsia marker. 

Fortunately, Ulster County New York, just 90-minutes north of New York City, offers a great number of winter activities and places to stay – providing the ultimate cure for anyone’s cabin fever.

According to Rhiana Sanchez, Marketing Assistant for Honor’s Haven Resort & Spa, “When it comes to taking the weariness out of winter, the Catskill and Shawangunk mountain regions offer up a wealth of activities like cross-country skiing, snow tubing, ice skating, horseback riding, and even ice fishing.”

Looking to stay inside?  Guests staying at Honor’s Haven can take advantage of the resort’s indoor pool, spa services, steam rooms, Jacuzzi, and bar,  not to mention a couple of great President’s Week and Valentine’s Day promotions.  So, inside or out, your three day weekend in Upstate New York is your ticket to winter fun!
