General idea instead of destination

More of a general idea than a destination in itself.
Something that my mother and my stepdad used to do every weekend was go fishing. (they are a little busy now)
They have a small house in a small town a few kilometres away from our city. The place is about 1km away from a big river. So every Friday night or Saturday morning they would load a pickup truck with the things they needed and drive there and stay until Sunday night or Monday morning. This stays extended on vacations or long weekends due to national days or so.
Every day they were there they would just go park near the shore of the river, take a chair a fishing rod and stay there for hours. They did bring back some of the fish they got, or cooked and ate in the house there.
Personally I only went there once and bored myself to death, but I see the beauty of it for someone that like fishing or relaxing near a river.
So what do I recommend if you like the idea?
Find a place close to your city were you could rent or buy a small house (for example my mother place is a 1 bedroom, 1 bathroom, living room + kitchen mixed). With close I mean up to 50 km, you don’t want to spend hours driving there.
Then every weekend that you have free time, load your things and take a breather by going fishing or maybe you don’t like fishing and instead get a wood cabin or something similar. That is up to each one of you. Everybody need to relief stress in some way.
