What’s that we hear? It must be the collective sigh of relief that the kids are back in school and the amazing autumn season is upon us. Sure, we all miss summer, but now that the leaves are changing, the air is crisp — and the crowds are mostly gone — it’s an ideal time to hit the road. We’ve outlined seven one-of-a-kind getaways: Stay on a working farm, shack up at a funky Catskills motel where you can stay in the “Genie’s Bottle” or the “Noir Boudoir” room, or head to a chic boutique hotel with an impressive art collection. If a traditional country B&B or historic inn is more your style, we’ve got those, too. And not only do all these accommodations sit smack dab in the middle of gorgeous countryside, but they’re all surrounded by dozens of interesting historic, cultural, or just-plain-fun activities. So go ahead, fill the car, pack a bag, and get going — one of these getaways is sure to make your fall extra fabulous.
