Olympic Peninsula, Three Nights
Three hours from Seattle, the Peninsula is the Pacific Northwest trip that earns the drive. Rainforest hikes that empty after the first mile, tide pools at Rialto Beach, a lodge dinner where the elk walk past the window. Three nights splits the difference between coast and forest without feeling like you're packing up every morning.
