Want to whisk your sweetie away on a romantic winter getaway in the United States? It's time to start planning now. Whether your other half would prefer to curl up in a cozy cabin with a good book or hit the slopes on a ski vacation, frosty fun awaits in big cities, small towns and rural areas across the country. "Aspen has such an undeniable buzz. Alaska is rife for adventure with dogsledding, snowmobiling and even heli-skiing," says Carolyn Addison, head of product at luxury travel company Black Tomato. “I’m also a big fan of an off-season trip to Newport. It’s so pedigreed and well-heeled but with tremendous character.” Rather catch some rays at the beach? I’ve also included a few scintillating warm-weather locales that snowbirds are sure to love. And, of course, destinations with mild climates and a plethora of outdoor activities (hello, hiking and biking) haven’t been overlooked either. Scroll on and let the sparks fly.
