Catalina - landing above the clouds (cloud layer to just _below_ runway height). Then hike down through the fog to our deserted campsite by the Ocean.

I guess this will have to run a while to get a significant number of destinations
 
Remember I'm looking for destination names that can be put in Excel cells. If it is possible to restrict it to that and just be your completely independent choices that would be great. The places YOU consider your best ever destinations - they don't have to be in the US by the way so long as you flew your plane (rentals OK) in there. Try to make choices based on the appeal of place itself not because of something in your life like you had your 50th birthday there, you met the love of your life there, etc.

KNEW Lakefront Airport in New Orleans
My wife and I flew from Louisville Ky for our Ten Year wedding anniversary. (Spent it in the French Quarter.)

On the deck over Lake Ponchartrain on final was interesting to say the least!
