Stays Across the Northeast
New England does fall better than anywhere else in the country, but the region holds up in every season: saltbox cottages on the Maine coast, mountain cabins in Vermont and New Hampshire, and old barns turned guest houses across the Berkshires and the Hudson Valley. The stays here made the list because they earn the drive up from the city, not just the foliage.
Every one books directly with its host, which is worth using in a region this particular about its seasons. Hosts know when leaf-peeping traffic clogs the back roads, which trailhead actually has parking, and where the cider mill is worth the stop.
