Great location, comfortable stay

We really enjoyed our stay along the towpath. The house was clean and well stocked, and it was nice to be greeted by the ducks in the canal each time we took the short walk to Lambertville. The bridge to New Hope was out of service while we were there, which was too bad, but it sounds like it won’t be closed for long.

Great Location!

This was a great apt for me and my wife to stay for the weekend. The location was perfect, easy walking distance alongside the D&R Canal to Lambertville and the bridge to New Hope. All the amenities seem like they were recently renovated, it had everything we needed, and the owner was very responsive when I had a question about something.

The Perfect Nearcation

Elliot’s cozy and charming home was the most inviting place to be for a temporary escape from the city. With a window view of a raft of ducks on the canal, the morning and evening strolls along the water, I’ll be very much be looking forward to the next one.

Perfect location

Lovely historic home just a short walk on the towpath to the Lambertville downtown area. We parked our car at the house and never needed it for the rest of our visit. Enjoyed biking on the towpath to Washington's Crossing and learning the history there. Elliot was very responsive to any inquiries or questions I had. Would stay here again.

Pretty nice

Accommodations were good: well equipped kitchen, large bed, nice master bath (although a few hooks for towels and clothing would have been helpful). Location by the canal was nice although a bit difficult to negotiate private road and parking. Very convenient to Lambertville and New Hope shops and restaurants.Two things should be noted on the listing:1. Stairs to 2nd floor are steep and narrow which could be challenging for some, especially seniors and kids. 2. There is an adjoining fully rented dwelling with a shared wall. This was not made clear in the listing. While it did not impact our stay, we were seeking privacy on our visit.

Amazing cozy house, beautiful location

what is there to say really - everything is exactly as it looks like it'll be in the pictures: the house is gorgeous, old & cozy but with all the right modern updates, like the heating, utilities, etc. the location is as gorgeous as it looks, sitting right on the path by the canal. waking up each day and seeing the ducks roam about in the water was wonderful. lambertville is always wonderful (& new hope too) have stayed many times. this was a perfect location to enjoy both but especially lambertville of course. going to panoply, my favorite bookstore, picking up groceries from the nearby store, coffee down the street at union. only small thing is there's not much to cook with, utensil wise, and that's hardly a complaint at all - not something you really need or care about, but i just mention in case someone sees & knows they'll want to check ahead, unlike me - i was too forgetful & ended up trying to flip eggs with a lone spatula haha. the kitchen is wonderful though & it was such a joy just to get to cook finally at all after 5 weeks on the road for work eating takeout. can't recommend this place more highly!
