Where is the best place for a family vacation?

I know this seems like it is in the wrong category, but I need help. I don't want to go anywhere. Sounds awful, close minded, boring etc. HOWEVER my family does not share my affinity for home and wants to go on a real vacation this year. Staying home is not an option. Remembering my youth (which was, honestly, spent not going anywhere) and not wanting to make them miserable, I need to find out where to go. It needs to be someplace (in the continental United States) that is NOT a tourist trap, or bogged down with pop culture and fake mass marketed media versions of "fun" that require you to be intoxicated to "enjoy" them with your family. (I've been to Disney.) It needs to be an opportunity for everyone to experience something enjoyable together (with a change of scenery), not demand any skills that I don't have ("required reading" is fine though, and I appreciate book suggestions), be kid friendly (ages 3-10) and last a week. Do you have any suggestions?
