Yellowstone National Park

This date may be out there, but it's fun and only is about an hour and a half drive time... plug in an Ipod and you're good to go!

Yellowstone National Park is a great way to get away with some friends for the day. From the buffalo, to the painted pots, to Old Faithful...there is no shortage of things to do in the park. And at $25 for a car, you can split that up nicely. Hey big spender, why not spring for your date's part of the bill too?!

Heise Hot Springs

Another great hot springs resort is Heise Hot Springs. In addition to the pools, they also have a waterslide, 9-hole golf course, pizza restaurant and campground.

St. Anthony Sand Dunes

Whether you love to four wheel and dirt bike, or you just want to relax in the sand and have some fun, the Sand Dunes are where you want to be. The Dunes are a great place to just go out and play, and then have a bonfire in the evening. In the winter it's a perfect place to go sledding too. The Dunes are also close to Egin Lake and the Ice Caves and the Civil Defense Caves.

Green Canyon Hot Springs

One of the best things about Rexburg is that it's really close to a lot of hot springs. Green Canyon Hot Springs is a super fun swimming pool/hot tub/cold pool and it's not expensive. It's also not far from Rexburg. So have fun in the winter or summer and go swimming!
