The historic Lanesboro is one Minnesota's best vacation hotspots. Here, friends and family can travel and do a bit of wine tasting, shop for some unique items and enjoy the private fashion show, the scenic outdoors, and maybe even have a little relaxation at the same time.

If you're a lady who needs to travel, then you're in luck. Lanesboro, Minnesota offers a ladies weekend package for three days, featuring a stay at the Stone Mill Suites Historic Inn. This is a building built in 1885 that has ten suites, each with their own theme that's relevant to the building's massive history and Lanesboro's incredible charm. The suites pack on the modern amenities, for instance the double whirlpool baths, lofts, captivating decor, and iron claw fireplaces. These add up to an incredibly fun experience. A continental breakfast is also served.

The weekend travel getaway begins with a greeting of cheese and homegrown Lanesboro Scenic Valley Wine. This wine is made using only local apples, plum, grapes, strawberry, raspberries or their amazing rhubarb. Lanesboro hosts Minnesota's only Rhubarb Festival in the first June weekend every year. Visit the winery you'll see how this local magic is made with onions and green peppers. Not only educational but fun and of course, the wine is delicious and worth the price of travel alone.

Dinner can be purchased at the Pedal Pushers Cafe, whose motto sums up their plans perfectly: "Back to the 50's...With a Twist." This cafe exudes perfect 1950-60's Lanesboro atmosphere and is like taking a travel back in time, complimented by malted milk shakes and cherry cokes.

The city of Lanesboro, Minnesota itself offers plenty to do, as well. Downtown Lanesboro features unusual shopping coupons, which are included in the ladies travel getaway package. Visitors can literally shop until they drop at local stores, rather than the chain stores so popular elsewhere. A private style show is included in the ladies getaway package, and this is always a blast. Three members of the group meets with Cheryl's Apparel to hang out and try out the various fashions. This store is located in Lanesboro's Tours and Treasures, and sells contemporary clothing to match any personal preference or trends, running the gamut from picnic clothes to special evenings out on the town with friends. Jewelry, accessories, everything clothing related is here in abundance. Cheryl's Apparel will live up to their tagline and provide you with fashions "that make you look and feel special."

Lanesboro, Minnesota and their ladies getaway package is exactly what you need if you're feeling burned out and bored. If work's got you down, or you're getting through a tough patch on life's highway, then why not travel to Minnesota's historic Lanesboro and party in a town small enough to care but big enough to provide plenty of fun nights and equally entertaining days?
