Love is in the air. When it comes to Valentine’s Day in Prince George’s, there are plenty of places to spark romance. You can book a spa treatment, work together to beat an escape room, or play some pool at a hometown favorite. Whatever vibe you’re seeking for your February fun, you’ll be able to find it in the region.

 

Plan the perfect Valentine’s date at one of these 10 spots:

 

  1. Go for a stroll hand-in-hand. Take a trip to the Clearwater Nature Center at Cosco Regional Park in Clinton. The 800-acre forest is home to birds, reptiles, amphibians, invertebrates, and fish, along with miles of walking trails along which you can attempt to spot them all. Let the natural space breathe life into your Valentine’s Day.

 

  1. Plan a shopping spree. At the Tanger Outlets in National Harbor, you can find great deals on fantastic gifts. Plus, shopping together means you both get what you want. Head to Kate Spade New York, Coach, Cole Haan, Helzberg, Kay Jewelers, Marc Jacobs, and more for excellent deals on luxury items sure to make your sweetie smile.

 

  1. Spark a little friendly competition. Head over to Center Pocket Sports Bar in Bowie to challenge your date to a few games. The low-key, casual spot offers ping pong, cornhole, giant Jenga, darts, cards, and, of course, pool. You can order local craft beers, cocktails, and classic comfort food — or book the VIP room to celebrate Valentine’s Day as a group.

 

  1. Toast to your relationship. Let the atmosphere do the talking at Blossom in National Harbor, where you can enjoy a cocktail in a beautiful setting. The pink tones and cherry-blossom themed decor are sure to bring romantic vibes, ones you’ll find mirrored in its freshly mixed drinks and floral brews.

 

  1. Treat yourselves at the spa. Book a treatment or two at The Spa at The Hotel at the University of Maryland. The College Park respite offers personalized services, from deep-tissue massages to customized facials tailored to your skin type. Relax and rejuvenate together at the world-class spa.

 

  1. Put your partnership to the test. Escape a room filled with puzzles, riddles, and hidden clues together at Escapology in National Harbor. You can retrieve the stolen Mona Lisa, find treasures in a lost city, solve a mansion murder, avoid an eternity trapped at sea, and much more — all while working as a team.

 

  1. Taste the luxury. Pop over to the Bellagio Patisserie in National Harbor to indulge inFrench-inspired chocolates, cookies, cakes, and more. If you want to elevate this sweet moment, ask the patisserie in advance to personalize your dessert experience.

 

  1. Stop to smell the roses. Visit the Luxe Bloom Bar at Luxe Ambiance in Beltsville. The private session takes place at the flower shop, and you’ll get to create a beautiful bouquet to take home. The base package for the experience includes expert-guided instruction, fresh flowers, floral vases, mocktails, and all the tools you’ll need.

 

  1. Raise your glasses. Visit Arthur-Wheeler Spirits Company’s cocktail lounge and tasting room at The Free State Distillery in Upper Marlboro for craft cocktails or a whiskey flight. Ask the team about tasting sessions, food options, and date night details.

 

  1. Brunch like the best of them. Plan a morning date at Busboys and Poets in Hyattsville, where there’s truly something for everyone. Try the Oaxaca omelette, the Neptune Benedict with crab cakes, buttermilk pancakes, or sweet potato hash — and add a Bloody Mary or a Billini to spice things up.
