  @vikinganna87 - I was totally going to suggest Banff or Jasper, but OP is using air points and she only has enough for domestic.  Even though we're sure it's closer to Chicago than some places, airlines will kill you on points just cos it's "international"

  Well to be fair, when traveling internationally the carrier has to provide a shit ton of paperwork.  Even if it is across the border.    Customs and immigration on both sides ask for fees.

  
  

  
  

  
  

  
  

  
  

  
  

  What differentiates an average host and a great host is anticipating unexpressed needs and wants of their guests.  Just because the want/need is not expressed, doesn't mean it wouldn't be appreciated.

  Haha yes!  As much as I love looking at our wedding photos, I'm thinking, that was sooo 6 months ago; I need something updated.  Rufus.

  I really like Phoenix and agree that even if it's crazyhot, as long as you're by the pool you should be fine.  It seems to fit the bill of what you're looking for.

  Alternatively, what about Lake Louise in Banff National Park, Alberta?  Everyone seems to love it and it seems beautiful and relaxing:

  Lake Louise is crazy expensive. It is beautiful though.
