Reader's Choice: Favorite Places to Spend Your 'Staycation'

Let’s face it, sometimes you just need a break and not a big vacation with hefty travel fees and the dilemma of getting that big pile of clothes into a way-too-small suitcase. In those cases, locals go the ‘staycation’ route, exploring the many attractions right in their home towns.

This week let’s find out what local ‘staycation’ haunts are at the top of people’s itineraries.

Maybe you like to hit the links at Sunken Meadow or tee off at Indian Head Golf, grab a massage at Park Circle Health and Wellness, visit a local beach or ride the hike and bike trail.

Readers’ Choice is a new weekly feature where we ask you – our readers – to tell us your top picks on the businesses and local attractions that get your loyalty.

Each Monday we’ll list our nominees recommendations. Did we leave your go-to spot off the list? Go ahead and add it in comments.

On Friday we’ll tabulate all of the poll votes, comments, recent directory reviews and emails and crown a Reader’s Choice. Please only vote once in the poll, because any attempt to game the results could end up in your favorite businesses being disqualified.

Here are our nominees:
