We stayed for an autumn weekend in November, and loved everything about this house. The property is absolutely beautiful inside and out. Short drive to New Hope / Lambertville area with plenty of things to do. Would definitely like to stay here again.
This property did not disappoint. Quintessential farmhouse beautifully restored everything you needed was provided kitchen stocked. Would absolutely rent again. Just perfect!
The Federal Twist House provided our group with a comfortable, beautiful stay. The house was very well equipped and exceptionally clean; directions/guidelines were clear and helpful. All of our interactions with the host were prompt and straightforward.
Stayed here for Easter with our kids and grandkids (6 adults and 4 toddlers). The house is spectacular! Beautiful, clean, well stocked and lovely setting. Plenty of room to spread out. Highly recommend!
The property and house were absolutely gorgeous. The amenities provided were great and the location was amazing. The house was even better than expected!!
The Federal Twist House is an amazing place to stay. It was immaculately clean, had everything that you could possibly need, beautifully decorated, spacious, and has a fascinating history. We had a wonderful stay here and hope to return again.
I visited with my family, including my 6 month old grandson. The house was spotless and very spacious! There was plenty of room for all of us. We loved spending time outside enjoying the views. Molly was an excellent host and communications were superb!
Beautiful historic property with recent updates. If you have mobility issues, might not be good as all bedrooms are upstairs and stairs could be challenging. Otherwise, this is an outstanding property and our stay was fantastic.
What an amazing historic house with beautiful property in a vineyard. Quiet, close to everything you could want. We thoroughly enjoyed our time, I wish we were able to spend more time at the house, we were there for a wedding weekend and didn't even get to cook a meal in the well-stocked kitchen. I would stay there again in a minute!
We loved our stay at the Federal Twist House. It fit our family perfectly as we celebrated Lawrenceville graduation. Proximity to the river and adorable surrounding towns was so much fun. Our host was super accommodating and attentive…thank you so much!
My family gathered at this beautiful home for the second time. It was absolutely perfect! Great space to cook and eat together, comfortable sleeping arrangements, and plenty of space to be together without being on top of each other. Thanks so very much for another wonderful stay!
We had the best stay for our wedding weekend! The property and house were beautiful, everthing was perfect and even better than the pictures. Thank you again!
We needed a space for two families with adult and teen children, and the Federal Twist house was perfect. The kitchen and bathrooms were updated and very functional, and the common areas were comfortable and conducive to family gatherings. The house is close to the towpath and some other hiking areas. We would definitely stay here again!
We had a wonderful time - we ate dinner at the house the first night and had breakfast there and ate dinner out the second night. It was very comfortable and plenty of space.
Close enough to New Hope and Peddler's Village.
Great house.
My family gathered for a local wedding. The home and setting could not have been nicer. Molly was very responsive to all inquiries. A flock of 5 turkeys kept us entertained!
We had a well-deserved getaway with 11 amazing ladies and we had a blast. We laughed, we ate and we took a hike and of course we tried the chocolate and wine!!! It was wonderful and such a beautiful place with some amazing history! Thank you so much!
