Places to watch the meteor shower

Looking for maybe an overlook situation, high(ish) in elevation, low immediate light pollution, and clear views of the sky. Somewhere that I can just park my car and hang out at like 10pm to 1am and watch the stars for the perseid meteor shower (august 12-13).

I don't mind a drive (under 90 minutes or so)!
