Visit Tacoma-Pierce County is thrilled to introduce the "Rustic Romance" itinerary, a three-day escape crafted for couples craving a balance of cozy comforts and outdoor adventure. Designed to help lovebirds unplug and reconnect, this journey takes travelers to some of Pierce County’s most picturesque and secluded locales, from snow-laden forest trails to quiet waterfront lookouts.
This getaway starts with a touch of island time—literally. Couples can grab pastries, hop on a ferry, and explore a nearby island where solitude and scenic waterfronts set the mood. A nostalgic lunch, followed by a secluded dinner overlooking a serene lake, lets guests fully embrace the quiet and each other’s company.
Nature lovers will find plenty to swoon over on day two, with guided winter horseback rides and refreshing outdoor spa sessions, followed by cozy evenings in cabins complete with wood-burning stoves and private hot tubs. Between invigorating snowshoeing treks and comforting massages, this itinerary ensures that each moment balances activity with relaxation.
Dining along the way mixes rustic charm with locally sourced flavors, from mountain-inspired breakfasts to nostalgic stops for classic American fare, all leading up to quiet evenings with meals that couples can prepare together in the comfort of their own cabin. It’s the ideal setup for a little culinary creativity and intimate dining, with no reservations required—just each other and the open sky.
“The Rustic Romance itinerary is an invitation to couples who want to embrace the kind of unplugged, genuine connection you can only find in places as picturesque as Pierce County,” said Matt Wakefield, Chief Marketing and Data Officer for Visit Tacoma-Pierce County. “It’s about enjoying a slower pace, savoring incredible landscapes, and experiencing the kind of quiet moments that make for lasting memories.”
Whether it’s sharing a peaceful lakeside breakfast, or soaking under the stars in a secluded hot tub, the “Rustic Romance” itinerary invites couples to experience Pierce County in a way that’s as refreshing as it is unforgettable. Full itinerary details can be found at www.visitpiercecounty.com.
