family getaway

Relatives' shared excursion

A family getaway is a short vacation taken with one's immediate family, typically lasting a weekend or a few days.

The phrase emphasizes togetherness and escape from routine: We're planning a family getaway to the lake house.

It often implies a destination within driving distance rather than elaborate travel.
