Stay at the Village Green Resort in Cottage Grove, Ore., two hours south of Portland, for only $69 per night. This special is available Sunday-Thursday through Dec. 30.

Guests receive $100 worth of added value, including dinner and a bottle of wine at Seasons at the Green restaurant (one per stay), and an American buffet breakfast for two each day. Upgrade to a deluxe room is only $20 more.

Cottage Grove (located about halfway between San Francisco and Seattle) is 20 miles south of Eugene, and is known as the "Covered Bridge Capital of Oregon." The resort is minutes from the 17-mile Row River Trail, great for hiking or biking. Local wineries and golf are also nearby. Amenities at this pet-friendly resort include free parking and a lounge with nightly entertainment.
