Top Romantic Weekend Getaways in Ohio for Couples
Escape for a Romantic Weekend in Ohio
It doesn’t matter who you are or how long you’ve been in a relationship. Sometimes, you just need a weekend away to relax and reset. This time of year can be busy, so not everyone can afford to go away for a week-long vacation in the tropics. But there are plenty of beautiful places around Ohio that you can escape to for some much-needed R&R with your special someone.
Inn & Spa at Cedar Falls
The Inn & Spa at Cedar Falls is a great way to spend a weekend. If you book their “Rekindle The Romance” package, your stay kicks off in a beautiful cottage with a bottle of wine and a late-night snack. Lounge around your room or in the whirlpool tub, enjoy a couples massage, or eat up at a candlelight dinner for two. Package prices start at $900+ plus tax and gratuity depending on the time of year. Visit their website for more information.
Hotel LeVeque
Hotel LeVeque is the most iconic building in the Columbus skyline. Its luxurious, art-deco-inspired interior and small, boutique feel will give you the intimate weekend away you’ve been dreaming of. Have dinner at The Keep, a modern French brasserie, or go out for drinks in the heart of downtown Columbus. Check out their website for more details.
The Mohicans
Not everyone would call a weekend away in a treehouse romantic, but that’s probably because they’ve never been to The Mohicans. These custom-built treehouses are the perfect getaway for the adventurous couple. The treehouses vary in price, size, and decor, but all of them can be made more romantic with some special occasion additions, including rose petals, chocolate-covered strawberries, and champagne. Visit their website to book your stay.
The Villas at Gervasi Vineyard
The Villas is an upscale boutique inn at Gervasi Vineyard. In addition to a luxurious villa, you can also book spa packages, order wine and chocolates, or arrange a vineyard tour.

If a private hot tub, hand-crafted artisan chocolates, and a roaring fire aren’t enough to convince you to spend the weekend at Glenlaurel, then I don’t know what would.
