at an Underscore portfolio companyGetaway is a wellness hospitality company that offers cabin rentals in natural landscapes. The company's experiences are more than the beautiful tiny house nestled in the woods—it’s about disconnecting and living in the present moment.

It’s about tuning out the endless noise of society today and listening to the great outdoors. Getaway's mission is to offer an experience worth coming straight back to: deep and simple enough to help you find yourself, revel in nature, and rekindle the connections most important to you. We’ll provide the basics; the rest is up to you. Outposts are located within about a two-hour drive of major metro cities—far enough to disconnect but close enough for a spontaneous escape. Getaway currently operates three outposts outside New York, Boston and Washington, DC.
