Canada maybe? I've been looking into a trip there myself and a roundtrip to Ontario/Edmonton would run me about 400. Then maybe Airbnb for 200-250. Then the remaining cash for "flash money."
Maine and Canadian lobsters are the same animal. Prove me wrong.

Oahu, Hawaii. I've done this trip frequently and from LA its the best bang for the buck.
Flight = 300 (have to time it kind of right)
Hotel = 100-120 a night x 3 nights = 400 after all the fees and crap like that. Air BnB might be cheaper but I've never really done that and have lucked out with cheap hotels in central waikiki every time.
300 bucks to do whatever. Eat spam musubi and plate lunches. drink some cheap happy hour beers at dukes and tan on the beach.

If this is for yourself and you are still in D.C., it's a no-brainer. Either Ocean City, Maryland or the Jersey Shore. You can easily drive to both places and you can probably do four days for under $1,000, maybe far under $1,000. I heard crickets when I posted about a Jersey Shore meetup next weekend, so I'll probably be on my own.

New Orleans, or somewhere in Canada that I'd like to (re) visit such as Ottawa/Montréal or Halifax. Of course, I'm based on the US east coast, so if I were a westerner, this would definitely be different.

Oh shit. Did I say Edmonton? I meant Calgary.
Taking a vacation to the oil sands doesn't sound so bad either...

Maybe DR? Not sure what a flight runs you from DC.

Where ever JetBlue or Sprint flies on sale.
Canada is great for Americans these days, our dollar sucks.
How about Toronto Archie? Only an hour flight from NYC

I'd live it up in NYC for four days, go see a yankee's game, eat a corn beef at carnegie deli, go to the art mesuem, hit the night clubs, walk time square and talk to chicks.
I always have a blast when I go there.

Being on the west coast I'd probably fly to Mexico, but I may never come back.
If you're in DC then what about DR or Montreal?

Santo Domingo.
Flight. Airbnb or hotel with rooftop pool on the Malecon or in Piantini. Pipeline hard. Spam your pipeline pics of your rooftop pool. Profit.
Bottle service one night at Moma could be used if needed.

Chicago is pretty nice in the summertime and worth checking out.

For 4 days I would go somewhere to relax and not worry about anything. That includes meeting girls.
Imagine the stress of pipelining for a 4 day trip? I know some guys here have done it very successfully but I feel like that would be plenty of work on its own. For me it wouldn't be worth it.
I'd rather save the girl-chasing for when I'm back home or on a longer trip.
I'm very limited on travel experience still, but for a 4 way getaway I would either go to Montreal for touristic purposes and events in the summer, or Cabarete Dominican Republic just to relax in a chill beach away from all the noise drinking cheap mojitos and eating well. Day trip from there to Puerto Plata is also possible if one was so inclined for a bit of adventure. There are also some tourist packages in Cabarete to explore some of the jungles and waterfalls nearby if I remember correctly.

ATL, Georgia. $100 rt drive and $100/night nice hotel in Buckhead. $500 to fuck 4 DTF black non-pro lizards. If $1500, then we're talking Caribbean. If $2000, then we're talking South America/Europe.
