With vacation season quickly winding down a lot of people are looking for that one last hurrah to send off summer in style. And with the holiday drawing near the destination of choice requires less headache and more “here we come” attitude.

Below you’ll find the top three destinations according to an informal poll of Trunk Club stylists, along with suggestions for what to pack no matter we’re you are headed this weekend.

1. The Lake House – If you live in the Midwest is the quintessential getaway spot. Kick back at lakeside retreats, campgrounds and beaches in places like Lake Geneva, Traverse City and New Buffalo, where Redamak’s burger joint alone is worth the trip.

2. The Coast of Maine – Plenty of holiday travelers take the quick jaunt to the Hamptons or Cape Cod, but why not take that little extra trip to travel to the coast of Maine for some exploration. The Pine Tree’s States seaside attractions range from the great outdoors (Acadia National Park) to the not-too-shabby Portland food and bar scene.

3. The Mountains – Resorts towns in the Mountains aren’t just for winter sports, and have plenty of summertime adrenaline rushes from mountain biking to whitewater rafting.  Plus there are a variety of more relaxed activities. See Saratoga Race Course, which is celebrating its 150 year anniversary.

And so whether you are bound for the coast or the mountains make sure you pack these core pieces for your extended weekend travel bag.
