I found Santa Fe, New Mexico made for a beautiful Winter Vacation.
There is a combination of:
Indian ruins,
Beautiful hikes
Sometimes snow
Amazing, distinctive food
Great culture
A nice plaza
and an emphasis on Christmas, with luminaries and a walk through town (apple cider is served)

I strongly suggest Santa Fe, New Mexico. I have been there several times during that part of year, and it really is a great place to go to for Christmas!

Florida would be my choice since most of the "winter" season still presents some pretty nice weather that makes it easy to get from place to place and even makes it possible to stand comfortably in line!!!

There are so many varied attractions contained in one state that you could explore the state for weeks and not see them all.

There's everything from the oldest city (St. Augustine) to the southern tip and Key West. In between there is such a variety of things to do that range from the NASA Space Center to Disney World and its other theme parks to Busch Gardens to Sea World to the Bok Tower (with its singing bells) to the Ringling Museum and Mansion and, of course, all the beach and water sports that can be enjoyed.

That just scratches the surface!!

Some of my best Christmas mornings have been in the warm waters of Hawaii. Check out some of the great winter vacations on the islands:

Honestly, I would suggest a summer destination even for a winner vacation. 7th Springs is open to the public in the winter as well. It's rather interesting actually. They create their own snow. So, one wouldn't have to worry about the snow melting or causing rough jagged ends that occurs on snow that isn't freshly- altered.Well, In 7th Springs the snow is freshly altered for ones' completely everlasting enjoyment! 7th Springs is the vacation spot for people who simply enjoy winter! Hope your one of them!

The beach cities in Southern California...yes, its not as warm as Hawaii, but the temps are usually warmer than the rest of the country and if you plan your trip before late January, you usually have wonderful weather (upper 60s to low 70s).

Typically winter is the off season in Southern California -- so hotels offer great rates, the beaches and amusement parks are a lot less crowded than in summer.

So if you're craving some beach time -- but don't want to pay Hawaii prices...Southern California is where it's at!

Winter is my favorite season, so I wouldn't take a vacation during the winter to avoid it - I'd take a vacation to get the most out of it!

I'm considering taking a drive up to Arkansas in the next month or so, since I live in Louisiana and I haven't been there before. It looks beautiful (to me, anyway):

Honestly, I just Googled "Arkansas winter," haha. But the whole state is covered in forests, it's just amazing. One of my co-workers took a hiking/camping trip with her boyfriend to... I wanna say El Dorado, but don't quote me on that. Anyway, they had a great time and their pictures are beautiful. If you'd like to look into doing the same, they have an official tourism site here: http://www.arkansas.com/

You certainly would not be dissappointed spending a winter vacation in Arkansas. Winter is a great time to visit Arkansas, its a time when you can get great deals and not have to deal with alot of tourists.
The Buffalo National River area is awesome!, I have spent a great deal of time in that region during all the seasons and am always in awe of the beauty.
I would highly reccommend visiting the town of Eureka Springs in NW Arkansas. The winter months are the off season so you can get some fantastic deals.

WOW!! The pictures are amazing. It's awesome how these pictures captivate the winter season in all it's splendor. For a Christmas vacation these pictures say it all! Where's this place located? I notice that this is a forest- like background, but is there a lodging area for the public? Winter places would be perfect for a photographer as well as a writer. The reason, I put a writer in this category is because many people receive insight when writing. It helps their creative aspect of writing.

Well the suggestion of this question is, "Go for a winter vacation” not get away from winter vacation!
In my opinion, if you can afford it the number one "Winter Vacation" is Whistler, British Columbia, Canada. A stay at the Chateau Whistler is a decadent treat and the winter activities will keep your plate full from morning to bed. Outside of the Alp's there are not many places that can match the skiing in Whistler BC. For Americans, with the favorable exchange rate on the US/Canadian dollar it becomes a little more affordable.
Second choice would be Colorado and third Toronto Ontario Canada (Toronto Vacation)

Would love to go to Le Massif Canada and enjoy a ski vacation. Atop this mountain - in fact the highest vertical drop East of the Canadian Rockies, skiers and snowboarders can contemplate vast and unending scenery.
