Romantic weekend getaways....... any suggestions?

We would like to get away for a little romantic getaway (like 2-3 nights) ... but we aren't sure where to go.

We have been to the Poconos (Cesars) before... but I don't want a resort. I want a little town where we can get out, do some shopping, go to a nice restaurant, maybe go to a spa together...

Anyone have any ideas? Something not too far, like 4-5 hours TOPS.. ideally 2-3

DH and I love going out east. Greenport, Sag Harbor, Shelter Island... they're beautiful towns, quiet, and not that far away.

We did 2 nights at the Montauk Manor a few years ago. The place is so cool, we got massages, went to the lighthouse, had some nice dinners in town and even went to the beaches.

It was great

How about Mystic CT? You can see the old town, boats and aquarium and have nice dinners in the little restaurants they have there.
