Despite all the wonderful things New York City has to offer—an easily navigable subway system; more art, museums, and music than you know what to do with; endless dining options—there are a few things that are hard to come by, space being chief among them.

To help narrow down the options, we rounded up 45 of the best Airbnbs within five hours of the city for easy weekend getaways or drivable summer vacations, whether you want to be close to the beach, in the mountains, or need enough room for the whole family to join.
