The location was supreme. The property isn’t very toddler friendly but its access to all that lovely Lambertville offers made that completely bearable. We will definite be back next time we come to the area for a visit.

I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at the Canal Tow Path house in Lambertville. I loved the quiet, serenity and easy access to a great walking trail. The house was very well appointed and lovely. If you are considering this property, take the Host's cautionary words about the stairs seriously - they are steep with a turn at the top, so getting a large suitcase up to the bedrooms can be a little challenging for those traveling alone. The screened in porch is a pleasant bonus, as is the deck at the backyard. It's a lovely place, and I will likely return - my thanks to an excellent and thoughtful host!

Great little spot. Perfect location for enjoying Lambertville or New Hope! Each room has its own controlled temperature which was nice. The upper porch and back deck were fantastic for enjoying the outside sights and sounds. Already booked a return visit in 6 months! Two things would make it even better…tissues and in the kitchen, a whisk (for frothing milk for capuccinos)

Great spot right on the canal path

We spent a weekend here and it was perfect for what we needed. Close to town with an easy walk along the canal tow path. Easy parking and comfortable accommodations.

Hello and thank you for the good review! Sorry the mattresses weren’t to your liking…. Most people rave about them. As the same goes. To each his own. Thanks for staying with us.

This house is cozy. We enjoyed the courtyard in back. The kitchen was very well equipped, including dishware, cooking pots and utensils, lots of options for making coffee, and basics like olive oil, salt and pepper. The location on the tow path is so pleasant, and the town is very walkable. The wifi and smart tvs were also appreciated amenities. The owner was easily available and very friendly.

Perfect place to stay

The stay Elliot’s place was perfect. The place is adorable with everything you could possibly need. The yard and upstairs porch which over looks the D &R canal are both great places for coffee and drinks. We brought our bikes and the path was literally feet from our door. We will definitely stay again.
