'Memorial Day is one of the biggest markers of American travel habits, and vacations around this holiday can act as an interesting early indicator of what's ahead for the summer,' HomeToGo Travel Expert and Spokesperson, Eleanor Moody said. 'This year, we're seeing vacationers gravitate toward locations offering space, scenery, and a slower pace—from lakeside gems in the Ozarks, to serene stretches of the Carolina coast, to scenic cities situated in wine country. On average, travelers are venturing 746 miles from home to reach Memorial Day vacation destinations, indicating a preference for spots that feel distinctly different from the everyday, providing both distance and downtime.'
HomeToGo's Memorial Day Travel Report says that the majority of the top ten trending destinations this year are rural or small-town spots, with lake and river retreats, beach towns and island breaks, and gourmet stays in wine country reigning as top priorities.
