Actually, an airport any distance from the point of origin technically qualifies, but you do have to land there for it to count as 135 XC time.
According to the 61.1b3i, the only XC time excepted from the landing requirement is that for ATP aeronautical experience. However, 61.1b3 (Cross-country time means-) does not list any distance requirement, only a "landing at a point other than the point of departure." The distance requirements are laid out in for the individual ratings and certificates in the following paragraphs.
