Laurel Road Trip Destinations - Academy Ford Blog

Spring is here, and with it, the promise of warmer weather and a great time to spend on the open road with the windows rolled down. You can take a new Ford from Academy Ford anywhere, and we’ve got a list of some great places to consider visiting this spring. You’ll find great deals on an Explorer, Escape, or Bronco Sport to get the family there in style this spring.

Dutch Wonderland

About two hours north, in Lancaster, is one of the best theme parks in Pennsylvania. Dutch Wonderland is a great place to take the kids and spend the day. No better time than spring to cruise around the park and visit the over 35 rides, attractions, and shows. There’s something for the entire family there, with coasters like Merlin’s Mayhem, attractions like the Wonder House, and Exploration Island for all the dino fans.

Mount Vernon

Looking for something more educational and historic? One hour south you’ll find the home of America’s first president, Mount Vernon. The large estate contains the original house, museum, and more. Learn not only about Washington’s past but life in the 18th Century in general. There are regular special events, including Animal Family Day, which is sure to be a hit with the kids. You’ll enjoy hours of activities in the nice spring weather before heading home.

Maymont

Hop in your new Ford and head south to Richmond and visit Maymont. There are 100 acres to explore and no better time to do it than in the pleasant spring weather. Maymont is a little bit historical center and a little bit zoo, with native wildlife habitats, huge gardens, an arboretum, and The Robins Nature Center. You can spend hours just walking around the grounds and checking out the expansive habitats. Be sure to check out the waterfall before packing up for the drive home.

Brandywine Zoo

A short trip north to Wilmington will bring you to the Brandywine Zoo. The zoo features animals from all over the world, including endangered species. Always popular, be sure to check out Sherman and Mohu, the zoo’s adorable red pandas. If they aren’t cute enough for you, the zoo also has a capybara named Candace. The zoo has regular events, so check out the calendar to enjoy one of the Little Nature Explorers or Club Zoo sessions.
