Enjoy A Wine Tasting at a Local Vineyard
Two of LivCo's most romantic destinations are Deer Run Winery and O-Neh-Da Vineyards. Both boast beautiful grounds with stunning landscapes overlooking the Finger Lakes and the feeling of being tucked away from the hustle & bustle of life's busyness — and then, of course, there's their delectable selection of wines. Take a break from reality for a few hours by enjoying wine tastings at either location, soaking in the peaceful atmosphere, surrounding beauty, and relaxed conversation with your other as you sip some of Finger Lakes' best wine.

Solve A Mystery Together
Couples who solve mysteries together, stay together. This year, Hillcrest Estate is hosting a Valentine's Prohibition Era Murder Mystery Dinner. Head to this beautiful estate for a night of live interactive dinner theatre! It's 1923 and Lucky Luciano is bringing his wife to a Valentine's Day Celebration. His two henchmen, a "close" female friend, and an underworld gambler in debt to him will also be in attendance. Will Lucky's luck run out? Surely nothing could go wrong at the Love Day Celebration? Enjoy a dinner buffet, cash bar, and dessert during your visit. Plus, the winning team (aka. table) who solves the murder will receive a prize!

Plan a Ski Staycation
Celebrate Valentine's Day with a ski getaway at Swain Resort. Between February 9th to 14th, choose between all-day lift tickets for you and your sweetie, or skip the slopes and just head to the Shawmut Grille for some tasty eats and cold brews plus all-night accommodations for two. Both options include a complimentary bottle of wine for your own personal apres ski.
