Please help me with your recommendations for a good resort/cabin at a drivable/short flight distance from Dallas for the long weekend! (Only preference is to be peaceful/secluded). Two places currently on my list are JW Marriott San Antonio, Miraval Austin

Dude.. don’t do either of those resorts. They will not be the peace of mind or seclusion you’re looking for. Go on VRBO or Airbnb and do the Cabin route

Sure, thank you so much for helping. I’ll stick to Airbnb and Vrbo then 👍

Really enjoyed the JW and Hyatt Regency hill country as a kid...

Highly recommend the Miraval Austin! The property is secluded and the whole brand concept is centered around well-being and getting away from the grind.

Would avoid the JW as it’s more of a traditional resort where the level of ‘peaceful’ is based primarily on who happens to be staying there when you are.

Thank you so much. True that. Miraval looks a bit secluded. I’ll check the availability 👍✌️

It's booked for this weekend, but in the future you can try Lake Murray Bed and Berth. They have cabins floating on the water on a lake in Oklahoma. It's not fancy, but we enjoy renting a jet ski for the weekend and being able to jump straight in the water from your living room!

Wow, this place looks interesting but it’s totally booked

Company considers the woman a riskier bet due to possibility she’ll take maternity leave — and considers the man less risky for his ineligibility to take as much leave. 🤷
