Unfortunately, Montana, along with states like Wyoming and South Dakota, just doesn’t measure up.

This new research reveals how Montana’s romantic offerings fall far behind expectations. From hotels to landmarks, Montana lags, ranking lower in romantic mentions than other states that should be high on any couple’s list. With its breathtaking landscapes, you’d expect Montana to be a haven for lovers, but this isn’t the case. The romantic experiences are simply lacking, with a glaring absence of romantic landmarks, intimate hotels, and parks that inspire love.

Why did Montana, once considered a hidden gem, become the worst romantic destination? What makes states like Wyoming, Arizona, and Kansas rank so poorly in romance? The answers may surprise you, and they could change the way you view your next romantic getaway. Travel And Tour World urges you to keep reading to uncover why these states just can’t spark the romance you crave.

Montana: The Least Romantic State in the U.S. – What Went Wrong?

When it comes to planning a romantic getaway, you would expect picturesque landscapes, candlelit dinners, and unforgettable landmarks. But if you’re thinking about Montana, forget it. This stunningly beautiful state is the least romantic destination in the U.S., and the numbers don’t lie. Montana’s romantic mentions are an abysmal 587 per 100,000 comments across Tripadvisor reviews. Even its landmarks only manage a paltry 73 mentions. That’s over 50% below the national average! You’d think the great outdoors would be enough to win hearts, but the romance factor just isn’t there. Hotels and parks offer less than desired, making Montana one of the worst states for lovers looking to escape.

The state is undoubtedly beautiful, but the lack of romantic mentions for its nature and parks, the absence of romantic hotels, and the disappointing restaurant scenes create a glaring problem. Montana just doesn’t resonate with the romantic sentiments you crave for a getaway with your loved one. Imagine searching for those moments that make your heart skip a beat, only to find an overwhelming emptiness.

Do You Still Want to Visit Montana for Romance?
If you’re still considering Montana for a romantic getaway, think again. The state’s natural beauty cannot mask the glaring shortcomings in terms of romantic ambiance. Montana ranks number one in a list that lovers would rather avoid when looking for romance.

Wyoming: Close, But Still Not the One

Wyoming – ranked second in this romantic disaster ranking – is one of the most underwhelming places for a getaway that screams romance. Sure, the state has its beautiful landscapes and a wild, untamed charm, but the stats just don’t add up. Wyoming’s romantic mentions per 100,000 comments barely cross the 595 mark. That’s just a fraction higher than Montana, but still pitiful when it comes to romance. Hotels and restaurants barely make an impact, with mentions still hovering far below what you would expect from a romantic hotspot. A state that prides itself on its natural beauty, Wyoming fails to translate that into an experience for couples.

This is a state where nature and exploration should shine, but instead, it comes off as cold and distant. The absence of romantic landmarks and underwhelming park experiences make it an unsuitable destination for couples seeking romance and connection. Wyoming should be crossed off your list if romance is your priority, leaving lovers searching elsewhere for a dreamy escape.

South Dakota: Landmarks, Hotels, and Romance? Not Quite

South Dakota has earned its spot in the ranking with only 613 romantic mentions per 100,000 Tripadvisor comments. It’s not terrible, but the state just doesn’t pack the romantic punch you might be hoping for. Landmarks in South Dakota get a dismal 23 mentions, which is a staggering 86.6% below the national average. Hotels and restaurants fare a little better, but still fail to impress, earning just 79 and 425 romantic mentions, respectively. There’s a better chance of finding a good steak than a romantic dinner in South Dakota.

Arizona: Overrated, Overcrowded, and Underwhelming for Romance

Arizona is another state that struggles to impress when it comes to romance. Despite the allure of the Grand Canyon and the desert’s sweeping beauty, it ranks poorly in romantic mentions. The state records only 679 romantic mentions per 100,000 Tripadvisor reviews. Compare this to other states where romance thrives, and Arizona seems underwhelming. Hotels get only 66 romantic mentions, while nature and park experiences do little to woo couples with only 90 mentions. Though landmarks like the Grand Canyon may be famous worldwide, they aren’t quite drawing in couples seeking a romantic escape.

Kentucky: A Great Place for Bourbon, But Not for Romance

Kentucky’s famous Bourbon Trail and bluegrass music offer charm, but when it comes to romance, the state just doesn’t measure up. With 766 romantic mentions per 100,000 comments, Kentucky’s romantic allure falls short in comparison to other places. Hotels are underperforming with just 68 romantic mentions, while landmarks score better at 184 mentions. Nature and park attractions are slightly above average but not enough to elevate Kentucky to a romantic getaway haven.

Kansas: Nature, Parks, and Romance? Think Again!

Kansas may be known for its plains and historic sites, but it doesn’t quite live up to the hype as a romantic destination. With 779 romantic mentions per 100,000 comments, it still sits firmly in the bottom ten. Hotels are the biggest letdown with only 88 mentions, while the restaurants, landmarks, and nature attractions fail to hit the mark. At least nature and parks earn a better score with 209 mentions. However, Kansas doesn’t offer the dreamy, romantic atmosphere that many couples seek on their getaway. If you’re looking for a romantic retreat, you’d be better off elsewhere.

Missouri and California: Tied for a Romance-Free Getaway

Missouri and California tie at number seven, with 798 romantic mentions per 100,000 comments. California, often seen as the ultimate romantic destination with its beaches, vineyards, and scenic beauty, fails to deliver the romantic atmosphere. Landmarks like the Golden Gate Bridge fail to generate the number of romantic mentions one might expect, recording just 92 mentions. Nature and park attractions have only 170 mentions, even though these should be the heart of the state’s romantic appeal.

Missouri’s ranking is equally unimpressive, with restaurants and parks contributing little to the romantic vibe that many couples desire. Both states are heavily populated with tourists, making the romantic experience feel lost in the crowd.

Alabama: Close, But No Cigar

Alabama, at number eight, shows potential, but it falls short in a few key areas. Hotels, restaurants, and parks don’t generate the level of romantic engagement needed to qualify as a top destination for lovebirds. The state’s nature and park attractions bring in the highest number of romantic mentions, but that still isn’t enough to lift Alabama from the bottom ranks. With 801 mentions per 100,000 comments, it’s not a place that should be at the top of your list for a romantic retreat.

Alaska: Beautiful, But Not Built for Romance

Alaska ranks ninth in romantic mentions per 100,000 comments, coming in with 833 mentions overall. Despite its beauty, Alaska offers little in the way of romance. The state’s hotels generate the highest romantic mentions at 357, but the landmarks and nature experiences just don’t compare. With only 40 mentions for each of the categories of landmarks and nature, Alaska’s romantic options are limited.

North Dakota: The Least Romantic State for Couples

Rounding out the bottom of the list is North Dakota, which records 855 romantic mentions per 100,000 comments. While the restaurants perform better than most, with 647 romantic mentions, the state’s landmarks and nature attractions leave much to be desired. At 37 romantic mentions for landmarks and 104 for nature, North Dakota is far from a romantic destination.
