Departing Dallas–Fort Worth

Romantic Weekend Getaways from Dallas–Fort Worth

Discover city stays in Dallas and Fort Worth, or slow the pace beside the water in Irving and Rockwall. Grapevine adds a destination-resort option, with distinctive hotels, dining and spa experiences across the metro area.

Illustrative image, not a specific property.

Broken Bow and Hochatown are roughly 3.5 hours from downtown Dallas: a full Friday drive, but rewarding for cabin-and-hot-tub weekends.

Granbury and Glen Rose are easy from Fort Worth, often under 90 minutes, and suit a spontaneous plan.

Hill Country towns such as Fredericksburg exceed four hours from Dallas, so we treat them as long weekends.
