'Staycation' May Be Perfect Choice for New Homeowners

July 11, 2011 2:53 pm

Depending on the distance and type, moving can sometimes be a stressful time, requiring lots of patience and keen problem-solving skills. When all is said and done, some families may want to stay close for the summer to save funds and really settle in to the new area. If a vacation isn't in your near future, consider the following tips for planning the perfect "staycation."

Explore the local scene. Since you're new to the area (or even if you're not) go explore a nearby area that is brand new to you. Untouched stores and parks in your area could offer up some fun and change of scenery for you and your family. More active homeowners can try an elongated bike ride to new territories. There is a world of possibilities all around you.

Try a new restaurant and ask for recommendations. Finding new eateries is always a great way to explore. Ask locals for recommendations--it's a great way to make friends and find places that are worth your hard-earned time and money.

Check out local fairs and carnivals. Dig through the local papers and try to find surrounding fairs or carnivals to entertain the family with. Flea markets and farmers' markets are always fun to discover, and carnivals are also very popular throughout the summer months. With a little research, you could find hours' worth of fun and entertainment.

Plan a day trip. There is even more to enjoy if you're willing to take a drive. Check for sources of entertainment up to three hours away from your home. By expanding the circumference of your search, you can still stay within driving distance from your home and save on the cost of hotel rooms. Full-day trips can offer a break from your neighborhood locale and allow you to enjoy another town or city in the surrounding area.

A "staycation" can offer loads of fun for the entire family but still be affordable. For recent movers or those looking to cut back this summer, don't overlook the many options that await you right in your own backyard.
