The side-by-side North Carolina mountain towns of Sylva and Dillsboro are hubs for nature lovers and foodies.

When you think of the Northern California coast, chances are the images that come to mind are something like this: long, sandy coves fringed with deep-green cypress trees; craggy, rocky cliffs with waves crashing below; road trip–ready highways along the Pacific, dotted with sprawling golf resorts featuring destination restaurants. All of those things come to life on the Monterey Peninsula, home to Pebble Beach and Carmel-by-the-Sea.

AutoCamp Catskills, which just opened in June 2022, offers Airstreams, cabins, and tents spread across 37 acres in West Saugerties, New York. While many people cherish the summer in the Catskills, fall may indeed be the most enchanting time in this mountainous region, which is widely adored by those seeking respite. The vibrant foliage becomes one of the main attractions, and the glamping resort AutoCamp is perfectly situated to showcase this seasonal extravagance. Guests are drawn to the area’s myriad seasonal delights, indulging in luxurious stays amidst the towering trees.

Just a couple of hours outside New York City sits a new boutique hotel and spa offering guests a sanctuary-like atmosphere that combines both nature and luxury.
