Family Vacation Ideas with Fishing

[wjohnson1983]

Looking for inputs on family vacation the first week in October. Kids are 5/8. We’ve done the beach the last two years and wife is looking for something different. Right now criteria is possibility of fishing, hiking, boat/kayak and fall colors and Resort/lodge type on the water preferred.

Looking Great Lakes area and West Virginia right now, but anything within a 10-12 hour drive from north Alabama is an option.

Really open since we’ve been to neither area.

Had seen the stonewall resort before in some of the searching.

Rented a cabin in a very rural area about an 1hr from Charleston, was a little to cold to fish. But a great trip and a first for WV for us.

Send the wife and kids to Disney World and go fishing with a buddy for a week.

I'm not sure if it's within your driving range of 10-12 hours but if you can get up to the adirondack mountains that would be my vote. Tons of lakes to choose from, great fishingand hiking, and beautiful.

Are you looking to go far? Why not save half a day's drive, Id look into going to Tennessee/Kentucky. Lake cumberland, mammoth cave NP.
