Jamestown Beach Event Park

The Best Spring Break Destinations for Families, From Cape Cod to Washington, DC

"Occasionally, we all find ourselves yearning for a simpler time, and colonial Williamsburg is a family destination that immerses travelers in the country's earliest days. Don a bonnet, churn butter, and ride the rustic roads by way of horse-drawn carriage. The city makes up one corner of the “Historic Triangle” comprised of itself, Jamestown, and Yorktown. And the period cosplaying fun doesn't stop at the historic district and living museum—families interested in puzzle-solving can even book the pirate-themed Colonial Escape Room. Stay here: At the Williamsburg Inn, a 62-suite Colonial Revival hotel built by John D. Rockefeller, Jr., your accommodations are hardly tired or stale: Rooms in shades of custard and pale blue are decorated in the early 19th-century Regency style, with carved wooden tables and damask upholstered Queen Anne sofas lending real, refined elegance—so the whole gang can relax in style.
