Readers' Choice: Vote for the Best Staycation Destination

The nominations are in, the gauntlet has been thrown down and now it's time for you to lay it on the line: Where is the best place to eat when someone else is buying?

There were only two comments and three local nominations made this week, so we have narrowed the list down quickly. Despite several posts on the Southington Patch Facebook page this week, there were no comments made there.

In the end, Mountain Grove Swim Club received the only singular vote, with both YMCA's Camp Sloper and Lake Compounce nominated in the second comment.

If you don't see your favorite "staycation destination" on this list, make sure you add it in the comments section below and be sure to come by 5 p.m. next Tuesday to help get your top choice added to our weekly list of candidates.

So here are your options for this week's category:

• Lake Compounce Theme Park, 822 Lake Avenue in Bristol
