The fall season offers an unlimited selection of vacation options. From bright yellow aspens in Colorado to crimson reds in Vermont, fall foliage alone is a reason enough for a quick getaway. In Vermont and upstate New York, the season generally runs from late September through the third week of October. Columbus Day weekend is usually a good bet, but you should book your room well in advance because many couples and families go on a long weekend getaway then. Maine fall foliage peaks during the early part of October.
