Relaxing place to get presentation done
Hi everyone,
I figure if there's a place to get this question asked, it's here!
I have a very important presentation coming up in a few weeks, and would like to get out of Dodge for a weekend or maybe just one night to focus on getting it done, outside of the hub-bub of the city. I'm hoping you could weigh in with a few suggestions. Here are my goals:
1) Someplace on the east coast that's warm, beautiful and tranquil. Think gardens.
2) This place (hotel/inn/b&b) would also need to have rudimentary Internet access (dialup is fine) so that I can actually do my work.
3) I won't be expensing this little "quality thinking time" getaway, so as this is on my dime, I'd like the whole thing, air + hotel to come to no more than $350.
4) I'm open to anywhere AA or TWA fly.
5) My first thought is RDU.
Thanks in advance for the suggestions. I'll let you know what I decide, and how the presentation comes out!!

If you don't mind a little driving, If you fly into RDU you could spend some time on the Outer Banks--Hatteras Island in particular. My family just spent a vacation at the Holiday Inn Express in Hatteras and it was a very relaxing vacation (we weren't pressured to do anything on a schedule). But if this is just a weekend trip, the Outer Banks my be a bit too far from RDU.
Good luck.
