The New England state of Massachusetts is full of Colonial American history with attractions such as Plymouth Rock and the Boston Common.

A popular time for traveling to Massachusetts is during the fall when leaves change their color. Many hotels accommodate travelers by providing suites with whirlpool tubs, which keeps you warm during the chilly autumn weather.
