This summer, take your family travel to the open road! According to Google Trends, no-passport vacations are the top trending vacation type in 2025 so far. In fact, a survey from Club Wyndham and Talker found twice as many participants would rather drive to a vacation than fly and 60 percent believe they have not seen enough cities or attractions in the United States.

Start your trip with a stay at WorldMark Moab while exploring beautiful Arches National Park. Next, drive west to WorldMark Bass Lake for a safe homebase while visiting Yosemite. Continue to WorldMark West Yellowstone for easy access to Yellowstone National Park. A stay at WorldMark St. George is perfect for a visit to Zion to see the towering red rock formations. Lastly, head to WorldMark Estes Park, where the Rocky Mountains await.
