These fall getaways are perfect for the entire family

12 Reasons Family Vacations are the Best

Whether we want to believe it or not, summer is officially over! Yes, the days of shaved ice mixed with beach days and warm weather are behind us once again, but does that mean life as we know it has to come to a halt? We think not.

While summer may have come to a close (and obviously that's sad on so many levels), we do have another fabulous season to look forward too -- FALL! From gorgeous boots and comfy sweaters to leaves changing colors everywhere we turn, there's no denying that fall is a seriously gorgeous season. And since that's the case, it's only right we start gearing up for some exciting fall getaways! But while you'd love to either take a relaxing, solo trip or go on a romantic vacation with your sweetheart -- if you have kids then you know that vacations such as the ones mentioned aren't exactly in the cards anytime soon.

So, if that's the case, what about a family trip? After all, there's nothing like enjoying a fun getaway with your significant other and the little ones near by! Let's take a look at a few awesome fall vacation ideas that the entire family (especially the kisd) will love.
