Grounds for Sculpture, Hamilton, NJ: New Jersey's Hidden Gem

If you love nature, and you love art, this is one place you want to visit because the combination of the two are magical. I honestly can't believe that I've lived in New Jersey my entire life and never heard about Grounds for Sculpture. First of all, this 42-acre park was designed and 'decorated' with the most gorgeous landscaping I've ever seen in a park. In addition to that, the 270 contemporary sculptures that are scattered about, but purposely placed, work with the landscaping to tell us stories. It's a theme park for adults where you can relax, be entertained, and absorb some culture.

Mountain Creek: Our Favorite New Jersey Winter Getaway...

Mountain Creek in Vernon Valley, New Jersey, is the place to go if you want a fantastic family winter getaway in the NJ/NY/PA area. It's just a short drive away, but you'll feel like you're a million miles away. It's the perfect mini-vacation!

  

I was expecting Mountain Creek, and its surrounding hotels, to be great, from what I had heard. However, I wasn't expecting to be blown away. The quality of their properties, the variety of activities, the food at their restaurants, and the friendliness of their staff, no matter where I went, was above and beyond anything I ever expected. 

Skiing, snowboarding, and tubing are just one part of the fun. Other outdoor adventures, and an abundance of indoor activities, will make sure you're never short of things to do. The thing is, you will probably not have enough time to do it all, but that's what future trips are for!

Atlantis Casino and Hotel, the largest hotel property in the Bahamas, is a one-of-a-kind vacation destination. With unique attractions that evoke the lost world of Atlantis, the resort welcomes visitors into an entertaining land of fun and fantasy.  The Legend of Atlantis: Mentioned in the works of Plato, Atlantis was a vast island empire that stretched, all the way from the Mediterranean Sea to the Americas. In Atlantis, Poseidon, god of the oceans, allegedly ruled over a utopian society of harmony and abundance as far back as 10 centuries BC. According to legend, around 1,500 BC, the mighty civilization was destroyed by a massive earthquake and it disappeared forever beneath the ocean, the Atlantic. Ever since, romantics and scientists have searched for its traces but turned up empty-handed.  Based on the legend of Atlantis, this namesake resort creatively and playfully interprets this lost world, adding loads of luxe and gallons of glitz to the mythical history.
