Cost & when to go
Excluding flights, budget roughly $600–$1,100 per person for a weekend, split across the group. Late spring through early fall (May–Oct) is best for the harbor and rooftops; fall foliage is a bonus. Winters are cold. Book early for summer and marathon/graduation weekends. Total the shared costs and divide with the cost splitter — see how to split a group trip.
Plan it and split the cost
Lock the date and headcount, set a per-person budget early, and book one big rental with room to hang. Plan a couple of anchors (a dinner, an activity) and leave the rest open — see the full bachelorette party planning guide. Then split the cost with the cost splitter.
