Romantic Riverfront Cottage in Bucks County, PA

Your very own Colonial Williamsburg-style cottage with wood-burning fireplace in a park-like setting on the Delaware River, 13 miles south of New Hope and Lambertville and 5-10 minutes from trains to Philadelphia and New York City.

Furnished with 18th-century reproduction furniture and Oriental rugs, the cottage is perfect for week-long vacations, weekend getaways, writer's retreats, house-hunting visits, or temporary lodging for relocated execs. It's ideal for a couple, but it also works for a family of four, or three close friends who don't mind sharing a bathroom.

The bedroom has a four-poster double bed with crocheted canopy, matelasse spread, and 600 thread-count sheets. The 'tavern room' off the kitchen provides extra sleeping space, with a twin bed and pop-up trundle, and a place to use your laptop. The sunny eat-in kitchen, though not designed for elaborate gourmet cooking, has everything you'll need to prepare simple meals.

There really is no place like our Bucks County Cottage on the Delaware, and we love sharing it with like-minded souls. Come visit us soon!

If you need help planning your visit to Bucks County, spend some time exploring the Bucks County Visitors Bureau and Bucks County Area Guide Web sites. Another great source of "insider advice" on memorable restaurants and things to do in Bucks County is Jim Flynn's Best Weekends.

Guest Comment

"Dear Emily, Your beautiful Cottage and garden was far more than I'd hoped for. Location was perfect for visiting Philadelphia and Bucks County and Amish Country. Being a fellow vacation rental owner, I was so impressed with all the thoughtful touches I took notes! And all of your advice for restaurants, shopping and sight seeing and just enjoying your area were excellent. I would strongly encourage anyone considering a B&B or a hotel to instead stay in your cottage, it had EVERYTHING one could ask for. Best Wishes, Elen"
