One of the things we love about the U.S. is that the country is filled with lots of fun vacation spots everywhere you go. It was not so easy back then to find great, fun-filled destinations that can be enjoyed by families, couples, and everybody else that’s looking to spend a few days of fun and frolic.
 
Things are a lot different today. Aside from the classic tourist spots that your grandparents probably visited during their time, we now have a multitude of extraordinary resorts that provide a wide selection of activities and options for everyone who visits.
 
If you’re looking for fun vacation spots in America, we’ve got five recommendations for you:
 
Snowbird Ski and Summer Resort
 
 
If you haven’t been to this place yet, you’re missing out big time. Pack your bags, your skis, and head out to the Snowbird Ski and Summer Resort for a grand old time in the snow. As a matter of fact, we’re pretty sure you’d love it here even if you leave the skis behind; there’s just so much to enjoy. Take a look at what’s in store and you’ll see why we recommend the place as one of the fun vacation spots you need to visit.
 
 
 
Go sightseeing 10,000 feet above the ground on their Aerial Tram. Ride with a snowmobile tour across the backcountry, or strap on a pair of snowshoes for some fun and exercise. They also have lots of summer activities: horseback tours, trail riding on bikes and scooters, fly fishing, river rafting, and several amazing rides that your kids will love.
 
Tanque Verde Ranch
 
This is a family resort that aims to make a cowboy out of everyone. It’s a 640-acre ranch near Saguaro National Park where you can spend days exploring and horseback riding to your heart’s content. Go on a Picnic Ride to Cottonwood Grove, or a longer, 6-hour Day Ride if that’s more to your liking.
 
But if you’re thinking that Tanque Verde is all about horses, you’d be wrong. Stay away from the horses and go mountain biking, or go get wet at one of their swimming pools. They also have indoor and outdoor whirlpools for you to relax in. With a lot more things to see and do, this place lands a spot on our top five fun vacation spots in the U.S.
 
Hilton Waikoloa Village
 
This time, it’s all about the beach and the dolphins. Fly out to Hawaii for a luxury vacation that’s guaranteed to provide memories for years to come. Your first stop at the Hilton Waikoloa Village should be at Dolphin Quest, where you will enjoy an amazing personal encounter with these wonderful mammals of the sea. Take this rare opportunity to experience the Big Island dolphin swim and learn more about the world of these intelligent creatures.
 
When you’re done, go whale watching with the family, go scuba diving, or schedule a kayak trip. Take a look inside the adults-only Ocean Tower pool. Enjoy the waterslides at the Kohala River Pool with your kids, and then unwind at their 25,000-feet Kohala Spa for some soothing spa treatments. With all these in store, it’s no wonder the place is on our list of the top 5 fun vacation spots in America.
