Two great choices, per VRBO? Big Bear Lake, California, "a favored summer destination offering water activities and access to mountain trails" — and Asheville, North Carolina, "with secret swimming holes, waterfalls and ample outdoor recreation like hiking and biking," the spokesperson noted.

VRBO also recommended posting up for warm weather fun in Blue Ridge, Georgia, and West Palm Beach, Florida.

Last but not least, in May, travel giant Airbnb recently shared trending summer domestic destinations by search by U.S. guests in Q1 in their summer 2023 press release. 

There are only four ocean or gulf front locales, but you can find lakes aplenty in destinations like Laconia, New Hampshire, and Kansas City, Missouri. 

Given how hot it’s been this summer so far, it’s safe to say Americans welcome the opportunity to cool off wherever they are.
