It might not be Valentine’s Day, but there’s something about the upcoming summer weather that has us feeling like love is in the air. Maybe it’s the fact that we can actually leave the house these days, finally free from a cold, long winter. Or, maybe it’s just that there are so many opportunities for romance here in Vacationland. Whatever the reason, we’re welcoming it with open arms. As we do that, we’re putting this restaurant on our “must-visit” list. It was once named to the list of Most Romantic Restaurants in America and you’ll see why!

The White Barn Inn & Spa might sound like only a hotel and spa, but it’s also an award-winning restaurant.

The White Barn can be found in two 1820s-built barns that have since been restored.

Its romance is unmatched by any nearby restaurant, but the food is just as special!
