Dallas–Fort Worth locals do not need a plane ticket to get a real resort weekend. Within a short drive you can tee off on championship golf courses in Frisco, float a lazy river near downtown, splash through a water park in Grapevine, or book a spa day in Las Colinas. The area's resorts mix big pools, full-service spas, and on-site dining, so you can park the car and stay put. It is an easy way to turn an ordinary weekend into a staycation that feels far from home.
