College Graduation Trip

We enjoyed our stay at the waterfront guesthouse for our daughter’s college graduation weekend. Judy was there to greet us when we arrived and answer our questions. The home is very cozy and was the perfect size for our family of 6. I would definitely stay there again.

We had a wonderful time at this house, where the meticulous attention to detail truly stands out. Judy is an excellent host, incredibly accommodating and thoughtful, especially for our group with children. She ensured everyone was comfortable and had all the amenities necessary. Whether looking to adventure out or simply unwind, this house is a superb choice that we would happily recommended again and again.

For rowing championship.

Very nice old house in a pretty location. A little creaky. Bathrooms were good. A little dark inside due to lots of nearby trees. Back deck was great! Hostess was great.

Historic haven

Quaint, comfortable, cozy… The Waterfront Guesthouse was the perfect place for us to land after traveling for several days in January. This place is peaceful. In addition to a great view of the Delaware River, the house is beautifully decorated, the beds and other furniture are very comfortable, and the kitchen is well equipped. Friendly, accommodating hosts Judy and Andreas live next door. We would happily return.

Charming day and night

Really cool spot - overlooking the river, lights from across the water such a dichotomy from the eclectic, lodge, woodland home. Stocked for whatever you wish. Charming. And the kids twin room is super thoughtful. Spent two nights.

Charming historic cottage

Many other reviewers have pointed out the many qualities of this listing. It is like taking a little step back in time with all the convenience of modern day living. We enjoyed making breakfast while listening to the "wireless" radio. Living plants in the cottage makes this feel like home and not just another sterile rental.
