Just 30 minutes west of Orlando, Winter Garden feels like a total change of pace. With its small-town charm and walkable, historic downtown, it’s the kind of place you’ll want to keep coming back to. Here are six spots worth checking out on your next visit!

Don’t let the heat keep you from exploring Florida State Parks this summer. Glamping is the most stylish and comfortable way to spend the night, especially if you don’t have camping gear (like me!). Timberline Glamping has franchise locations across Florida, so you can expect the same high-quality setup no matter which of these six spots you choose.

Micanopy may be small, but it holds a big place in Florida’s history as its believed to be the state’s oldest inland town. Just south of Gainesville, it’s the perfect escape, where time slows down and antique shops line the streets.

In Florida, the most memorable & peaceful stays often aren’t the easiest to reach. Whether it’s a boat ride, a long stretch of open road, or packing in your own supplies, these three places require a little more effort, but the experience is so worth it!

Step inside one of Florida’s most storied stays. From its beginnings as a 19th-century general store to its transformation into a beloved hotel, this coastal icon has seen it all — fires, hurricanes, and decades of change. I’m taking you inside Jimmy Buffett’s favorite room, to the dining room where a legendary salad still lives on, and through the halls of the Island Hotel, which continues to charm travelers more than 160 years after it was built.

Think you’ve seen everything St. Pete–Clearwater has to offer? Think again. This summer, I’m uncovering unexpected places to stay—boutique gems full of charm, character, and thoughtful details that make all the difference.
