Seriously Romantic Small Town Getaways

This year, many of us will be sticking close to home on Valentine's Day, enjoying a romantic movie or cooking a delicious Valentine's Day dinner together. But if you're a couple who loves to travel, you can still enjoy the fun of planning a future getaway to a seaside destination, quaint Victorian town, or a mountaintop bed-and-breakfast. That's why we've rounded up these romantic small towns to inspire your wanderlust or, if you happen to live a short drive away, to head to on a romantic Valentine's Day's road trip.

These small town hideaways are more than just charming; they're downright magical. Bet you didn't know that Nebraska has towns called "Cupid" and "Valentine." Meanwhile, Illinois has "Fidelity" and Louisiana has "Eros." There are places called "Darling" in Mississippi, "Lovely" in Kentucky, and "Venus" in Florida. And if that's not enough to thrill you, consider that both Colorado and Idaho boast regions called "Sugar City."

But the romance in some of our favorite Valentine's Day-ready towns goes well beyond their names. Read on for more ideas and to find the perfect romantic destination for your trip for two.
