Five Drive-Worthy Destinations For Your Next Spring Fling

When it comes to travel, sometimes the hardest part is deciding where to go.

As good a place as any to start: the accommodations.

Want to book Minneapolis’s best new boutique digs then tour the late, great Prince’s private estate?

Walk from your front door to Michigan’s best distillery?

Soak in a clawfoot tub in a converted Victorian mansion in Nashville?

It’s all possible and ready to book right now. Let’s go.

The Flat at Journeyman Distillery
Three Oaks, MI • Drive time: 2 hours

Journeyman draws spirit enthusiasts — whiskey drinkers especially — from all over the midwest, and now the craft distillery is offering road-weary expeditionists a place to lay their heads in the case of one too many. Opened in 2015 just steps away from the distillery, the Flat at Journeyman takes up a 7,000 square feet industrial loft space with enough room to sleep 20. In other words: you’ll wanna round up some friends. It has exposed brick and understated decor, along with a private coutyard perfect for enjoying that whiskey by the campfire. BOOK NOW
