101 Best Outdoor Towns: Unspoiled Places to Visit, Live & Play
Grab your gear; pack your bags and beat the developers to 101 of the greatest places left for living, visiting and playing--outdoor towns where you can still eat breakfast at a local diner; play all day in a gorgeous, natural setting; find microbrews and comfort food; and flop yourself into bed at a family-run lodge.
Tuff and Melville look far and wide to identify these places that have fresh vitality without having been overrun with fourth-home buyers and resort developments. These are places where you'll want to visit and just maybe stay on. 101 Best Outdoor Towns includes information about the towns, their history and all the things there are to do--as well as lodging and dining information. You'll even find each town's "stay" factor for just how livable and affordable the place might be for the long-term.

This is a great guide that is well put together and has the right amount of information on each town to help get you started. There is no useless filler that I have seen in other books, this one gets right to it. I would definitely recommend this one for anyone that loves to travel and have some good information about the place right before they go.

I'd recommend this book for anyone that enjoys travel and the great outdoors. I completely enjoyed it! The book reveals some little known gems, places that haven't been hurt by overdevelopment. The authors provide tips on where to stay, where to find a good meal, and what activities are available. If you have a spirit of adventure, be it wild or mild, this book has something for you...and some place wonderful to discover.
Great Travel Resource for Outdoor Enthusiasts
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 17 years ago
In the age of consumer reviews that are often unreliable (aka TripAdvisor), it is wonderful to find a travel resource that provides an unbiased look at 101 great places to visit in the US. Based on a formula, the authors locate towns that are able to retain their individualism in a society that is overrun by Walmart and other big box stores. These towns are inexpensive, uncrowded and great for people that like biking, hiking, fishing, etc. I have used this book to uncover some great new places, and I highly recommend it.
