Best Places To Honeymoon Near Pittsburgh

Weddings can be expensive, which leaves couples skimping on - or skipping all together - their honeymoon. Fear not, as these five places near Pittsburgh are inexpensive and beautiful options to starting your married life.

Located in South Pennsylvania's picturesque Cumberland Valley, which is a mere 90 minutes from Pittsburgh, OmniBedford Springs Resort offers its guests the unparalleled luxury and service of a AAA Four Diamond resort, without the hefty price tag. Stay at this National Historic Landmark and enjoy lush amenities, such as the Omni's signature steak house, Eternal Spa, and Bedford Springs Old Course for the golfer. You'll appreciate a delightful honeymoon close by, without making a huge travel sacrifice, and be just as relaxed as if you had visited an island in Hawaii.

Whether you're a newly married couple without children, or are parents on your second go-round, The Hotel Hershey - Hershey's Park's official luxury resort - was voted one of the top 20 resorts in America by Conde Nast Traveler. This old-world-style villa, only a short trip from Pittsburgh, looks expensive but offers comprehensive deals not found anywhere else. Multiple pools, hiking trails, golfing, premiere dining, and luxury spa accommodations will make this a memorable honeymoon spot. Don't forget to be a kid (or take the kids, if this is a family honeymoon) at neighboring Hershey Park - the sweetest place on Earth.

A boutique hotel in the Poconos sounds like an oxymoron - after all, the Poconos are a rustic locale deep in the mountains with plenty of old-world charm.. Tucked between rock ledges and the Paupack High Falls, this federal-style structure was first built for the John S. O'Connor Glass Factory in 1890. Celebrating the glass theme, the hotel's signature lounge, Glass, is a delicious small-plate and wine restaurant that's perfect for intimate dining. Make your honeymoon reservations here for a unique travel experience unlike any other.

Catch a murder mystery weekend or a dinner theater package, check in for Allenberry's refreshing 18 Hour Sensation, play your hand at a challenging tennis match, take a dip in the Jacuzzi, or even stuff yourself full of delectable prime rib that you're almost unable to enjoy the resort's down-home, fresh country breakfast the next morning. Whatever you please, Allenberry Resort Inn and Playhouse has you covered. You'll be whisked away to a delightful honeymoon, and whether you're there for a week or 24 hours, you're sure to leave feeling rested and rejuvenated.

One of the only reasons to hit the Poconos - aside from the exquisite mountains and five star golfing and skiing - is Mount Airy Casino, an entertainment complex rivaling that of Pittsburgh's own Rivers Casino. With ultra luxe accommodations, tons of exciting slots, and game play, daily tournaments, rocking nightlife, and headlining musical acts, you'll think you're in Las Vegas. Eight restaurants, including Guy Fieri's signature establishment, coffee shops, and cafe's will please even the pickiest palate, along with an award-winning spa and fitness center will perfectly round out your honeymoon.
