Looking for a good one-night/day trip mid-week to steal some time with my spouse. Any good ideas that are close in distance but still a good 'get-a-way'?

Inn at Dos Brisas
I've enjoyed a few nights at the 7F Lodge. It is literally 5 minutes from my house, but it made me feel like I was a world away.
Hyatt Lost Pines near Bastrop is nice.
If you want to rough it, rent a cabin at Inks Lake, then explore the Longhorn Caverns.
Boerne and Fredericksburg B&Bs are about 3 hours or so, depending.
In the opposite direction, Jefferson and Marshall are nice for east Texas. You can always swing through Canton if you like flea markets. A little farther east, Natchitoches La. is only about 5 hours away.

Wimberley, Lake Whitney, Grapevine, Aransas Pass, Galveston
Many B&B's at Round Top.
I don't think driving 10 hrs and sleeping for 9 hr is what the OP has in mind for a 30-36 hrs one night getaway!
Hearne railroad tracks. BEAUTIFUL backdrop for prom pictures.
Also for muddin before prom:

Yes, I would rather spend the limited time away at the destination rather than in the car commuting.
Thank you for your suggestions. Looking into a few of them.

I feel like that's the closest the guy on the left has ever been a girl.
Let us know your final decision
If you are looking for an extremely close to home getaway, book a room at the LaSalle in downtown Bryan during the next First Friday.

We really like Brenham. Hit a winery and have lunch at Funky Art Cafe.
Googled Dos Brisas.
Holy cow! Talk about dropping some serious coin.

Sage Hill Inn Above Onion Creek in Kyle, TX
Loved the time at Hyatt Lost Pines! Now is a pretty good time to go too. Mostly just conventions and weddings going on now. Summertime gets very crazy. Junior Executive Suite is a very nice upgrade with plenty of room.

Great quiet, casual yet Texas chic place that feels like you are miles away from the city, without leaving town!
